 "An album that leaves the old AM fans a bit bitter and that... has also become part of the 'musically banal' and the 'sold-out group that sells.'"

 "Besides the lyrics, our beloved monkeys should also dare a bit more in the music. Pull back while you can."

This review reflects on Arctic Monkeys' fourth album, 'Suck It And See,' highlighting its softer, vintage-inspired sound compared to the band's earlier energetic style. The reviewer notes the album's lack of innovation and the bittersweet feelings of longtime fans. While some songs hint at classic influences and melody, the album is seen as a departure from the band's original grit. It's recommended mainly to new listeners, with a caution to longtime fans about the band's musical shift. Listen to 'Suck It And See' and decide if Arctic Monkeys' new direction suits your taste!
