A year later I still haven't gotten around to trying it out (though more out of laziness). However I have caved in and gave the band's newest album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, a shot, and while it doesn't establish Arctic Monkeys as the premier rock act in the world, it's still worth listening to.

Breathless praise is a time-honored tradition in British pop music, but even so, the whole brouhaha surrounding the 2006 debut of bordered on the absurd. It wasn't enough for to be the best new band of 2006; they had to be the saviors of rock & roll.
Lead singer/songwriter had to be the best songwriter since or perhaps even, and their debut, at first was hailed as one of the most important albums of the decade, and then, just months after its release, NME called it one of the Top Five British albums ever. Heady stuff for a group just out of their teens, and they weathered the storm with minimal damage, losing their bassist but not their sense of purpose as they coped in the time-honored method for young bands riding the wave of enormous success: they kept on working. All year long they toured, rapidly writing and recording their second album, getting it out just a little over a year after their debut, a speedy turnaround by any measure. Some may call it striking when the iron is hot, cashing in while there's still interest, but is the opposite of opportunism: it's the vibrant, thrilling sound of a band coming into its own.
