MySpace "I've gone monkeys!!!" - Saturday, February 11, 2006, 15:26

I have to say, I've lost my bananas and gone monkeys! No kidding here. It seems like the music underground across the Atlantic Ocean is exporting better music than what can be generated here at home in recent memory. There's Coldplay, Keane, and Franz Ferdinand. And now? We have the Arctic Monkeys! Yes, you heard it right! There's talk about this band being the "next big thing" since the Beatles. Well, I'll have to wait for time to be the judge of that. But they're pretty good. Even though the US release of the album doesn't come out till Feb. 21st, I have the lucky opportunity to listen to the album from the UK. And I like what I hear. Check them out! Don't be surprised when they come state side. I don't like saying, "I told you so." =)
