Why (My Reasoning and Perspective) 

I think everyone’s dumb. A crazy way to start a review I know, but Suck It and See is top 3 Arctic Monkeys. I’ve seen so much slander of this album and it INFURIATES ME. I released this review nearly 2 months now and I still hold onto this. Compared to humbug this record is a joy. One of the only albums to have the emotion: happy, jolly. It’s like a bitter sweet ending to me. Like the ending of Athens, France. I love the guitars that’s what does it for me. Turner’s poetic lyricism as he speaks of how he fucking sucks at poems. Show off. I think this album doesn’t get the flowers it deserves.
