For the songs I like on it, it was like going back to their earlier days but changing it up to perfection. 1 hour ago, nikkic said: I wouldn’t go that far personally, but it’s a great album. Solid 8/10. I don’t understand the hate it gets on here! Nor does everyone not on here who buy tickets to see them. It reminds of the 'dark fruits' comment. Most of the people I know drink it at gigs or whatever and none of us are bothered about trouble. We go for a good time, a laugh and occasional mosh. 1 hour ago, FloorFiller said: Yeah me neither, and all I can really think of is that it’s become mega popular and brought them a whole wave of new laddy fans and so people have turned on it. It’s a great album. Couple of not so great songs, like literally all of their albums, but it’s mostly very good and has some of their best material. Tbh Arctics are one of very few bands who’s albums I really struggle to rank as I think they’re all equally great with equal amounts of highs and filler/lows, and each of them could end up on top or at the bottom of my ranked list depending on what mood I’m in. Just a consistently good band, thus far. Personally I really like their second album and realized how great it still was doing a list for a set yesterday. I don't think AM has the most amount of songs I like on it, but for the one's I do they stand out that much I wouldn't include a set without them. 1 hour ago, Hugh Jass II said: I'm just sick of it.

Of course I'm the reason why I like or dislike anything, just like you and nobody else are responsible for your opinions.

Because you bang on about it being so bad yet you liked it that much you overplayed it so it became boring to you. So full of shit. I've played it so much that I now hate it. We all overplay albums, but that's the most bollocks reason to give that it's the worst thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, I'm sure everyone goes off stuff, grows out of stuff over time. Over time you notice a record's flaws, especially when compared to others. The second half of AM is, in my opinion, deathly dull and the songs sound just a dull when performed live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing the point. You're view on that album based on any reason you give for it, is bullshit. You grew out of it, overplayed it etc etc, that is fine. But it's not their worst by far due to that. 19 minutes ago, Chef said: That setlist is as good as you'd see from any artist or band. It would be killer.

It's the album I have the least interest in listening to, with the songs I like the least right now. So yeah, to me it is their worst album. Why does my opinion bother you so much?

Not really because his reasons for that were completely bull. He calls people out for shouting bull and comes out with tripe like that. I accept you don't listen to it anymore but you didn't overplay it because you hated it. I meet people who play albums constantly all the time. You might say I'm not interested in it anymore, I've heard it enough and it's overplay which is fair. But to call it their worst is bullshit. It has over a million more sales than their most recent album. You can at least still appreciate it's a cracker of an album even if you don't like it anymore.
