Description
The reference points for the Arctic Monkeys are wide and varied. Musically, there's musical bits of The Stone Roses, Oasis and Nirvana. As catchy as those reference points are, it's the lyrics that have won this band a fiercely dedicated crowd very quickly. The songwriting delivers a mix of the observational storytelling of Davies and Weller crossed with the harsher documentary eye of Mike Skinner of The Streets and "Ghost Town"-era Specials.
