When I joined Last.fm in 2022 this was to me what a perfect album meant to be. After more than a year without listening to any of FWN, it bizarrely sounds COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! Idk if it makes any sense, but the first times I've listened to Brainstorm it sounded like a song with agressive, indistinguishable instruments, yet it all paired as a unique complex rhythm. Now, relistening to it after being exposed to alot of diverse music, with all sort of genres, I still refuse to admit to myself... but FWN is a totally empty album. Gosh, I even thought it was my speakers which I wasn't using to listen with before, but NO! I don't have enough musical theory (actually, I don't have any of it) to statistically or critically explain what's lacking on the sound, but I just feel it isn't the same. As I'm writing this, I'm listening to FWN in parallel and it literally looks like the album was entirelly reinvented. It sounds absurd as it seems. Is this relatable to any of you?

Then run from "Flourescent Adolescent" all the way to "If You Were There, Beware" places this album to compete as Arctic Monkey's #1 album. The scenario it paints, the slow moments building up to the rawest moments in the album (next to "505") just makes it my favourite album next to "Humbug".

Probably my fave AMs album, so many times I find myself going 'wow the guitar on this is amazing, wow the bass on this is amazing, wow the drums on this are amazing'.

A near-perfect album. Fluorescent Adolescent and Only Ones Who Know are a tad weak, but still not bad at all.

"Only Ones Who Know" allows the album pacing to *breathe* for a moment from the back to back bangers in the opening.. well needed and a well placed song in the tracklist - it's also a beautiful song.

pra mim é o melhor deles, curto, cutting edge, bem explosivo e fecha com uma baladinha perfeita
