ARCTIC MONKEYS HAVE A NEW ALBUM OUT!!!

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD I AM SO EXCITE I CANNOT EVEN. Only GBP 3,99 on Amazon, too! *______* IT IS SO AWESOMESAUCE. I AM ALL GLEEFACE. \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/

I LOVE THEM, YOU GUYS, I JUST LOVE THEM. ALEX TURNER'S VOICE = REALLY DIRTY, MESSY, STUPIDLY HOT SEX. NNNNNNNNGGGHHHH.

Okay. Now that's out of the way, we can continue as normal.

There's A HELL OF A STORM brewing; it's been thundering and lightening for hours, and the sky's all yellow. I hope there's no hail. I <3 STORMS, BTW. :D :D :D

I'm getting to the REALLY ANGSTY PART of my Big Bang, and so procrastinating is the word of the afternoon. Only 3,500 words so far, and I want to get to at least 5K today. Mind you, I've just had a coffee, so I reckon I'm back online for a few more K. SO MUCH TEENAGE ANGST, OMG. D: D: And my beta is going out of town for a few days, WHO AM I GOING TO PESTER INCESSANTLY WITH QUESTIONS, THIS IS UNDOUBTEDLY A SIGN OF MY IMPENDING DOOM. DDD:

I will be SUPER READY to get to writing mine and delicatale's next Big Bang after this, though, because ALL THE FLUFF, I SHALL NEED IT. >.>;; Not to say that there won't be fluff in the final part of my Big Bang, BECAUSE THERE WILL BE, SO MUCH. /nodnod/

Wait, just how many big bangs are you writing?

And I think I saw the Arctic Monkeys new album streaming somewhere, lemme look

AT THIS POINT, JUST THE ONE. >.> As soon as it's submitted, I'm starting another, though. But the second one is due ALLLLL the way in November, so loads of time to write. CURRENT BIG BANG AT OVER 27K, with at least another 10K to go. Wasn't even a week ago that I complained about the extreme unlikelihood of making it over 40K on a single fic. FAMOUS LAST WORDS. /0\

Oh, I already got it! :D IT IS VERY VERY VERY GOOD. ♥

THE NEW ALBUM IS OUT? AHHHHHHH \o/

[sirona-gs.livejournal.com]

IT IS, IT IS!!! Heard it on BBC 6 music this morning, and went a little batshit until I found it. IT'S PRETTY DAMN GOOD. <3

Only 3,500 words so far?! But that's a lot!! I know you're trying to meet a goal, but give yourself some credit!!

[sirona-gs.livejournal.com]

No, no, I'm very pleased with my progress! :D My unhappiness spans from my NEED TO PROCRASTINATE WHILE I COULD BE WRITING. That, and the deadline's on Wednesday, so I have to write as much as I possibly can of the story until then. IT'S JUST, IT KEEPS GROWING. D:

[imaginarycircus.livejournal.com]

EEK! YOU CAN TOTALLY DO IT!! \o/

Why do I still not have any Arctic Monkeys? I should, like, fix this. Wasn't I going to fix this? Why haven't I fixed it yet?

AREN'T YOU GLAD MY BOSS GOT SICK? I should tell him that some woman in Bulgaria who doesn't even know him is glad he got sick, see what he says. :P So yeah, I'll be heading off Wednesday morning and getting back Thursday afternoon. I'm disappointed, because that's one less night than we were planning, and one less night = less fun, and also I was hoping to use some of that away-from-internet time to get some of my writing done.

JHDAGH'HFG WHY HAVEN'T YOU GOT ANY ARCTIC MONKEYS YET, YOU ARE MISSING OUT, SERIOUSLY. I'd start with Favourite Worst Nightmare, it's my favourite album. They've only got four out, including the latest, so it's easy to catch up. Humbug is brilliant, too, and Whatever people say I am, that's what I'm not is a CLASSIC. Their latest will take listening to a few times before I'm able to digest it properly, but that's how I felt with Humbug, too, and now it's one of my favourite albums ever.

I AM INDEED GLAD YOUR BOSS GOT SICK. THIS WOULD BE WHAT I WAS REFERRING TO RE: BEING A TERRIBLE PERSON. I really am very sorry your trip got cut short, though! D:

HERE HAVE A CUPCAKE. It'll make you feel better! <333

OKAY WAIT NO I'M SORRY I JUST COULDN'T HELP MYSELF. >.>

"Teddy Picker" from Favourite Worst Nightmare

I freaking LOVE this song. The lyrics are so cheeky, and a hell of a lot of fun!


"Dancing Shoes" from Whatever people say I am, that's what I'm not

This song has been in my head ALL DAY YESTERDAY. LOVE the bassline! <3


"Do Me a Favour" from Favourite Worst Nightmare

One of my FAVOURITE Monkeys songs. IDEK what it is about it, but it can ALWAYS get me going! <3 You can't hear the bassline too well on this version, but the rest of them were too fuzzy.


"When the Sun Comes Down" from Whatever people say I am, that's what I'm not

FABULOUS lyrics. Very irreverant, and Alex's accent really comes through here. The bassline is pumpin', and the rhythm overall is just brilliant.


"Cornerstone" from Humbug

Again, brilliant lyrics, a lovely break-up song. Full of pining and lost chances. Kind of sad, but oh my god, the music. /swoons/

ARE YOU SOLD YET?? :D

[zolac-no-miko.livejournal.com]

Oooooh~, spam!! :DD

I WAS SOLD A WHILE AGO, THE HOMEOWNERS JUST HAVEN'T... MOVED IN... OR SOME OTHER METAPHOR LESS BIZARRE.

Are you familiar with Voxtrot? It's occurred to me, listening to all these Monkeys songs all together like this, that they sound a little bit Voxtrot, a little bit White Stripes, a little bit Beatles... and a little bit themselves.
