Let me throw this one out there, let me know what you think...

Arctic Monkeys - The Electric Co.

i'd rather collapse my ear drums than listen to that.

 

[Axver]

1. Wolverine: Acrobat
2. Opeth: The Fly
3. Orphaned Land: Sunday Bloody Sunday
4. Katatonia: Wire

17. Pure Reason Revolution: Treasure (Whatever Happened To Pete The Chop?)
18. Rush: Lemon
19. Muse: Mofo
20. Cynic: God Part II

If Joy Division still existed, I'd have them doing something like Acrobat, God Part II, or Exit.

 

[Mr. V]

No love for the Arctic Monkeys here? They're a very clever bunch of young lads, and once they mature and start to do some more serious, internal, that sort of music, I think they're going be huge. Huger than what they are. That said, I tried to choose the most riff-dependent U2 song I could think of at that time... and I came up with that.

But I do agree with a lot of what is being said... Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, The Killers etc. covers would be really snazzy.

Why would a band like Arctic Monkeys want to do serious music? Maybe they're just there to make poppish rock music.

I personally can't stand them, but it's like saying Franz Ferdinand is now going to be a prog rock band.

It ain't gonna happen.
