MP3 of the Week
The Arctic Monkeys don't seem to have captured the american rock music scene the way they captured the UK. Here is a chart of their iTunes ranking courtesy of Infofilter, a great new service from Wiredset.
But as far as I am concerned, their record, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I Am Not, is the best record of 2006 so far.
And one of the many excellent songs on the record is called Mardy Bum. It's the best song about the "pissed off wife/girlfriend" that I have ever heard.
Now then Mardy Bum
I see your frown
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
Here's the entire song.

Fred, you should give a listen to the new Ray Davies album. Tremendous stuff. My album of 2006 so far.

I wonder if blowing the SXSW show had anything to do with it? I heard they were so mediocre that many fans who had waited since 4pm that afternoon just to see them left disgustedly midway through the set, and people who were waiting outside on a hope and a prayer actually made it in! I also heard they were rude to many people in the stands, including critics and photographers. Not a good way to kick off your US media coverage...
