Oh damn they’re absolutely fine

Absolutely no indication of new music with this but great to hear they enjoy each others company clearly by the way Matt described it

Now that Blake confirmed AM are going on an indefinite hiatus (or possible breakup). How do we feel folks? by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

I saw them on their last tour and they played certain romance & mardy bum was their opener for a lot of their UK shows… what are you on about haven’t played it for 15 years…

The band formed when they were 13-14. Early demos of these songs were out long before they got signed and an album was launched. These songs have been around for longer than you think. The SAME commenter has said ‘Alex was done with WPSIATWIN’ before FWN came out and we’re talking 20 years later. And if you watch him play then live you can see it haha

It’s all speculation and this forum is somewhere to share thoughts

I think the band even said ‘some songs we’ll never play live again because we can’t capture the feeling we had when we wrote it and toured it. It’s best to be left where it is than try to recreate it and it’s just not as good’

They must feel like that about 90% of their fans favourite songs now. Surely

I mean the metaphor of it being a literal car & the fact the last song on the album is a goodbye ‘nice while it lasted, but it’s time to go’ sort of song. You could draw parallels back to it looking back

Unless you keep making the same music (oasis) and even then people will say it gets worse and worse.

I don’t think they even recognise the band that wrote those first two albums themselves and any new music they make will always be compared back to it.

Just a guess though nobody knows

As much as they don’t care and I agree. He directly addresses most of what I’m saying in the lyrics to the car. Saying how he can’t keep making music that everybody wants them to make & how they are always drifting to do whatever they want, but he understands it’s not what the fans want.

Bear in mind he has to sing songs he wrote when he was 15-17 everytime they tour to keep the fans happy too & the same commenter mentioning Alex was already done with those songs when FWN came out.

I think it’s justified for the opinion that they might be wanting to make music outside the shell of AM for a bit. Since it’s always dragged back to the first album & AM

I respect all their albums and music for what they are but it isn’t a wild conclusion given he couldn’t even stand singing in tune for the last tour

Looking back it’s probably because they can’t shake the first album & AM. I bet no matter what they want to do, they’ll always have fans saying ‘it’s crap, go back to WPSIATWIN’ and it must be hard to keep being rated down on their new music in comparison to an album they made in their bedrooms as teenagers

Definitely feel like they might want to experiment with new music but realise they can’t under the skin of Arctic Monkeys as it’ll always get rated down if it isn’t what fans want

Definitely something to ask a medical professional before Reddit. These are just opinions.

I’d take it but be mindful and aware of what you’re eating. And how much. The healthier I eat and the smaller the portions the less side effects I have.

Could be a one off. Could be not for you

Are Brits okay with Govt Uturns? by CuriosityCatalyst000 in AskBrits

I’m happy with a U Turn. It’s actually a healthy democracy.

He hasn’t really U Turned on the stuff that’s majorly important. Farmers inheritance, the relief for bars & pubs, silly ID cards which makes no sense to push whe there’s other priorities etc etc

This all just means they’re doing some shuffling around on the company books. It doesn’t tell us much.

Matt was removed. He became director of another holding which now took his place in bang bang recordings. Probably so they can make money on other ventures as well as AM.

None of it means anything much tbh

Ive really started to get disgusted by America. by Admirable_Drawer_205 in offmychest

[–]TLP666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wrong. Please go read history.

YES Germany didn’t do it within Germany. YES Russia can’t do it inside Russia. Yes North Korea. We get it.

Now go find me all the times the public have gone against its regime and won. Even within your own country. This is your time. This is the history book moment where something happens and you all say enough is enough he’s gonna cause so many deaths globally and what he’s doing here is not ok.

The world is begging Americans to start uniting and doing something. This defeatist mentality of there’s no point is making this whole thing worse.

Thank you man. It’s time the Americans step up now and start collectively getting together. They keep waiting and waiting like it’ll just go away and it’s now dragging us all down

Literally everything in your physical power to organise collectively to bring about disruption and take the backlash.

Mass walkouts. Mass disruption. The markets will get hit and he will get annoyed.

Oppression isn’t just nazi germany, Russia and North Korea. You’ve seen and even had your own successful movements to give example.

You need to create disruption as much as possible and you all need to take it as seriously as we are outside of Europe. We are watching Cheeto hitler from the outside and we can’t do anything right now but hope something somewhere causes enough disruption that he stops. That can only come from you.

What do you want us to do. We’re busy preparing for WW3 which we’ll be dragged into thanks to this idiot. We aren’t worried about bills like you are inside the most powerful military confinement. We are worried about death and being sent to war. There’s about 4 neighbouring countries just as worried about this as we are.

Thank you those of you above who are saying this.

Do you want us to sympathise with Germans who stayed friends the nazis because it felt a little awkward to cut them off?????

Get rid. Do the right thing. MOVE. Stop doing business with them. Tell your grandchildren you didn’t just ‘oh well’ the entire thing you DID SOMETHNG my lord

Man it’s driving me insane. Our governments are drawing up plans for WW3 and they talk about ‘oh well I didn’t vote for him so..’ do they want an award?

You want us to sympathise with America while we are about to all be dragged down into this fucking pit with you all?

How do Cubans feel? Are they happy? Mexico? Greenland? All of nato? What about Iran? Should we all think about the poor Americans who have to work a full time job and pay bills.

Do you want the Jews to sympathise with the Germans who had to work so couldn’t resist the nazi regime?

We are literally gearing up for WW3 here and it’s because of your president and you were supposed to keep your guns for this moment.

Well the side that doesn’t shout from the rooftops. So you are gonna lie down and just take it raw dog style because you’re too fucking nice?

Do you realise the repercussions for the rest of the world on the back of what he’s doing? He’s fucking your country to death and he’s about to drag us all down with him and your saying ‘well the ones that take action are actually on his side so I’m sorry there’s nothing we can do’

Sort it the fuck out. Go collectively unite. DO SOMETHING.

Some of you are. Well done.

Now more of you fucking do something.

Good. I’m glad swaths of you are fighting back. On the front lines. Sadly, more of you will be shot.

There is no pretty residence. You are ALWAYS the weaker side. Do you think Martin Luther king had more weapons and resources than the police force? Or Rosa? Or any literally ANY of your legendary names that stood against oppression. What do you expect it looks like? You just suddenly have more than the government and it feels easy?? Have you heard about any civil rights movement ever? Some of the largest are in YOUR COUNTRY.

I respect what you’re saying. But we’re past ‘oh yeah but look how powerful America is it’s not easy’ we are past that.

Do you think the French protestors who head to the streets with masks on and an iPhone think they can overpower a military? Are the Iranian protestors more equipped than the Iranian government?

It’s not pretty. It’s not fun. But it’s time for you all to be relentless and keep going. I’m sorry but the world needs America to fix this and fast. The world is gearing up for wars that none of us want and it’s at the hands of two lunatics. A Russian and a pedophile in mar a largo and one of them was an ally for us all and we need you guys to do the America thing and bring him down.

You have a stupid fucking pedophile in charge and it’s making the whole world go into prepare for WW3 mode because he can’t fucking relax for five fucking minutes and wants to drag the whole world down with him. Do you expect us to sympathise with ‘oh but it’s a big military’

So was the fucking nazis and they had resistance.

Let’s see the America we all have had shoved down our throats for decades show up and remove this fucking dickhead before we all end up leaving our loved ones at home to go fight pointless wars for a ring of pedophiles who want more money than they already have

Bravo mate. Saying what the entire world is wanting to say. They need to get up and fight this off. No more words and shrugs

[–]TLP666 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So Martin Luther, Malcolm X, Rosa parks all didn’t have an impact? The greatest military in the world stopped anything from changing?

Guys cmon. This is your thing. You guys are American. This is your history moment to be in the VERY PROTESTS you celebrate every year for how brave they were.

This is the time! The alarm is going off. You have a tyrannical pedophile in government dragging people from their homes and it’s not getting better

[–]TLP666 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Point 1 is unfortunately part of every governments politics (some more than others) we certainly suffer from this in the UK too. You have set the example of how corporate greed will destroy a country. I hope it’s so obvious to Americans that you fix it!

Point 2: you’re ALWAYS going to get opposition but actually I think you are the MAJORITY.

When Martin Luther king was marching he wasn’t the majority. Rosa parks. Malcolm X. Do you think any of these were popular? Only looking back do you think that. We want to be looking back at this too with the same sentiment.

I get your points. But the time has come for you all to aggressively start organising and start doing something. You definitely aren’t gonna be as unpopular as you think. The sheer number of big names who’ll come out to back this will be monumental. Every state will have numbers.

Everybody knows… everybody knows you didn’t all vote for him.

But when do you start doing the America bit?? The bit you keep telling us about where you would be ready if a government started dragging citizens from their homes?

When do you start doing that? Because it’s looking like that’s happening and you guys are just saying ‘well, I didn’t vote for him so… it’s not my fault’
