Hello Internet People!
So I've taken a week off from posting because I've not really been useful for anything recently, and I'm not sure why. I've been breaking down a lot and it's not healthy, maybe i should see someone about it? I don't know. But yeah, i thought I'd let you know that I'm still alive anyway!
I've been really busy recently with my band, because as we prepare for festival season and possibly a mini tour, we need to make everything perfect as well as take a crack at writing new material. it's a lot of pressure but we need to get ourselves busy again, especially now that it's come to light that Nick Hodgson of Kaiser Chiefs fame had heard us and wants to see us live after liking what he heard. Hopefully we can get ourselves back on top of things as we were last year, and get some new fans in the making. Our current Demo EP is on free download on soundcloud right now! I know its a shameless plug but here are our links:

Anyway, back to reality and today i saw a link on Youtube to the 'Top 10 Arctic Monkeys Songs' and after watching it, i got thinking about the success they've had over the years. Even though i know so many people who are ashamed to call themselves a fan in a desperate attempt to seem cool because of their achievements in the the 'mainstream' chart, they deserve to be the biggest band around at the moment. The approach that they have on music is so thorough yet so loving that they make a melody that no one can compete with, and it is clear that every note and every beat is carefully planned to make a winning combination . But above and beyond, the main back bone to the bands status is the lyrics. Only comparable to the words of Morrissey, Alex Turner's lyrics flow off his tongue in a beautiful narrative and leaves us all speechless. Truly no one can compete with the giants any time soon.
