I tried. I really did try. It’s not for me. The Monkey of the Arctic are just clearly the most overrated band since U2. Thank goodness The Big Pink is also moving across the Atlantic to take the crown from as the band from England that makes me want to puke the most. I wish there was some pirate in the likeness of Keith Richards to roam the Atlantic keeping terrible British bands from making their way into my eartubes.

Love the video! I haven’t heard these last several albums that Josh has reviewed so I’m getting schooled right along with you guys. Need more hours in the day to listen to all of this good stuff.

I like the album overall.
But the cover is L-A-M-E… and I don’t like “Dangerous Animals” either… mostly because of the spelling out the title part… not a fan of that in any song… including the ever popular G-L-O-R-I-A by Van Morrison who I otherwise dig a lot… that song gets under my skin… big time. #1) I know how to spell. #2) What a cheap chorus… couldn’t come up with anything better than that? Seriously. Oops, sorry for the rant, have some strong feelings about it I guess. :)
My top three songs from this album are “Secret Door”,”Fire and the Thud” and “Dance Little Liar”
Good review!
Hope you and the rest of the fam are feeling better and having a good weekend!

I can get behind you on the Arctic Monkeys. I enjoyed all of the songs you posted. The album cover and title are stupid and/or lazy *gags*. They don’t get as much hype as they used to, which is nice, but I remember when they did and it was pretty annoying. Thanks for the review!
