ARCTIC MONKEYS "SUCK IT AND SEE" SEALED 180GM VINYL COMES WITH FREE MP3S Returning home after their Josh Homme -directed voyage into the desert, Arctic Monkeys get back to basics on their fourth album, Suck It and See . The journey is figurative: Suck It was recorded not in Sheffield, but in Los Angeles, with their longtime producer James Ford , who conjures a sound not unlike the one he captured on the band’s 2007 sophomore set Your Favourite Worst Nightmare . Homme may be gone but he’s not forgotten, not when the group regularly trades in fuzztones and heavy-booted stomps, accentuating their choruses with single-note guitar runs lifted from the Pixies . Ultimately, all these thick tones provide color on a set of songs trimmed of fatty excess and reliant on sturdy melodicism, arriving via the guitar hooks and sung melodies. Naturally, in a setting without frills, Alex Turner 's lyrics are also pushed to the forefront, more so than they were on Humbug , and he shows no signs of slack, still displaying an uncanny ear for conversational rhythms and quick-witted puns. If Suck It and See is missing anything, it’s a powerhouse single. “Brick by Brick” contains a crushing riff and “Don’t Sit Down Because I Moved Your Chair” pulses with an insinuating menace, but neither are knockouts, they’re growers that get stronger with repeated spins. read more
