Do you mean that you dowloaded the album or did you buy it? Didn't think it was out till 30th Jan?
Got this today, I've been left a bit gutted because I had the demo version (almost the same songs but a bit ropey and raw sounding, in a good way) and this one is far too "polished" and you can tell it's been altered a lot to appeal to a wider audience.
I also got the Strokes new album - First Impressions Of Planet Earth. A couple of really good tracks but the rest are going to be growers I suspect.
I would recommend both to any Indie fans but try and get a hold of the demo version of Arctic Monkeys'.

Great album.
Get the demo one - it's much better - if you can Catbob.
Sounds like they've been groomed for the mainstream. What a shame.Originally Posted by b-force
You just bludgeoned the nail on the cranium. The album is being released early now too because of the hype. Hopefully they'll maintain the energy from the demos I have in their live perfermances as I'm going to see them twice in the next few weeks.Originally Posted by Withnail
Bought this album at 12.05am last night! See what u mean bout some songs bein better on the demo versions (eg. Fake Tales of SanFransisco), but still the album is ****in awesome! 1# in both album and single charts already.
My sister has just bought the album and mine is slightly diff, i d/l *cough* in Oct last yr and i think i must have the demo version.Originally Posted by b-force
It is slightly more raw.
i bought it yesterday, simply because it was £8.97 in tesco's and i was interested to see what the fuss is all about.
Its a very good album, i can imagine they will be great live too!
i would recommend it to anyone!!
