Featuring Josh Homme

[edit]

Song Knee Socks is featuring Josh Homme as vocal. http://tv.24sata.hr/tag/arctic-monkeys-27951 — Preceding unsigned comment added by NinoHR (talkcontribs) 12:35, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added this information in the Personnel section. We don't know if his name will be on the back cover, like: "Knee Socks (feat. Josh Homme)". It may only be printed in the album booklet. BTW, Alex has a really strange accent in that interview :) Mayast (talk) 15:01, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Stop adding speculations regarding album title

[edit]

Please stop adding information about fans speculating that AM stands for Amplitude Modulation, Ante Meridiem or anything else that has this abbreviation. The official explanation of the title, given by the band, is included in the article and properly sourced. The rest is rubbish ;) — Mayast (talk) 14:28, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alex Turner and Matt Helders specifically stated they didn't intend for it to stand for anything but Arctic Monkeys (Source http://www.theguardian.com/music/video/2013/sep/09/arctic-monkeys-am-new-album-interview-video ) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.143.177 (talk) 20:48, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the link! — Mayast (talk) 21:52, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Composition section

[edit]

I think that instead of creating separate articles for songs such as "Mad Sounds" and "No. 1 Party Anthem", which clearly don't meet the WP:NSONG criteria – and please note that "Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability. If the only coverage of a song occurs in the context of reviews of the album on which it appears, that material should be contained in the album article and an independent article about the song should not be created." – we could try to work on a "Composition" section, where all the songs from the album could be discussed in terms of lyrical and musical content.

Proposed merge with I Wanna Be Yours

[edit]

The "I Wanna Be Yours" article has little content, which could easily be incorporated into the album article. Mayast (talk) 22:14, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

AM

[edit]

Are they rock gods who view themselves as such? Or is the tongue in the cheek when spewing lines like "sunglasses indoors, par for the course" and "may suggest that somewhere from which I might know her, just to get the ball to roll." These fellows are clever and there is no mistake in their choice of jargon. Whether you recognize their sly mocking or not, the album still delivers greatness. Complex or completely simple. The ball's in your court. Peabrain21776 (talk) 09:26, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, but please remember that talk page is not a forum and should only be used to discuss how to improve articles ;) — Mayast (talk) 12:00, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

AM tour in Asia

[edit]

Arctic Monkeys headlined at the Summer Sonic Festival in Tokyo and Osaka, Japan, on the 16th and 17th of August 2014 as part of the AM tour. It only says here "in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand" and missing Asia. [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pulidok113 (talkcontribs) 21:57, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
