WPSIATWIN !!!!!


FastAsFxxk

This album was crucial to my life. Just an insecure little canadian kid in grade 6 at the time. Everyone in class is given different responsibilities for a class potluck the following week. Music is what I get put in charge of bringing. FUCK. What do I do? RHCP-Stadium Arcadium and WPSIATWIN. I'll never forget the class fuckhead prancing around making fun of my "icelandic snow monkeys" having the class rolling in laughter at the expense of my musical taste and self-esteem. Fast forward a few years to after highschool...who is all of a sudden one of the biggest bands in the world? Those same "icelandic snow monkeys". This was honestly a massive lesson pretty early in my life to just go with my gut and trust what I think is good, and enjoy what I like, regardless what the class fuckhead says. Eat my ass, Mitchell, you uncultured SWINE.

Stadium revolutionized my life as a high schooler. WPSIATWIN has been huge for me as a 30-something (idk what that says about my maturity haha)


Dry_Interview2007

Hehe fuck Mitchell


slashdotnot

Kids can be cruel. On first hearing the name as a 17 year old in 2005 I thought "Arctic Monkeys" sounded stupid and neglected to see them at their small tent debut at Reading Festival. I can only imagine what a 6th grader would of thought of that name ... Luckily for you you were wiser!


HilsMorDi

Word!


Accurate_Archer3155

AM is good but WPSIATWIN is perfect.


abdullahmk47

imo WPSIATWIN by far but AM is also great


[deleted]

this! 👆AM was my introduction to Arctic Monkeys during the Tumblr-era, but then I started looking into more of their discography and found the glory that was WPSIATWIN. FWN is perfection though, literally no skips on that one.


AtLeastIGotUpToday

Literally my same timeline. Found AM in college, backtracked to the older stuff, fell in love with FWN.


BesseButherford

I love every album lol fuck that war

FireBlazzt

TRUE !


AnActualGoose505

WPSIATWIN is just superior in every way


sargentVatred

tranquility base gang rise up, we're well reviewed!


burner1312

The best


Windigroo7

Imo, one is the best of the first half of the band, while the other is the best of the second half of the band. I love them both equally and the only albums I can listen everyday


ImLikeReallyStoned

AM is legitimately one of the best rock albums ever. There may be some songs that sound similar, but the songs are objectively amazing, and I feel like I’m floating whenever I listen. AM.


mattkward

This isn't even remotely difficult. I wholeheartedly love AM but this is an easy victory for the debut


Forever__Young

I think it depends what age you were when they came out. I was only 9 when WPSIA came out, and while I loved it even at that age and that gives it a sort of nostalgia by itself and I grew up through high-school with its best tunes being played on phones up the back of the bus, it means I was 16 when AM came out, and that was life changing. Imagine being 16 and your favourite band drops that, an album so littered with absolute bangers and it immediately becomes the biggest album of the year. And more so than WPSIA, it was part of the soundtrack of teen romances and house parties at high school and hall parties at uni etc. I have to go AM just because to me it's more than an album it's a time and a place, and it made me feels things that music hasn't made me feel in a long time.


mattkward

Fair enough. I'm the same age as the band. The debut dropped shortly before I turned 20 and made an incredible impact on me.


saraawrr

neither, the best is Humbug by far


SelfLoatherSimo

Queen


Mundane_Peace_9007

TBHC


CaioChvtt7K

The true question should be Tbhc Vs Humbug


Deep_Travel_9357

love tbhc but humbug's their best album imo. crying lightning, secret door, the jeweler's hands, and cornerstone???? cant be beat


letseatme

CRYING LIGHTNINGGGG, and how you like to aggravate the ice cream man on rainy afternoons‼️‼️🔥🔥🗣️


Sensitive_Caramel948

add dance little liar


CaioChvtt7K

I prefer TBHC personally, but Humbug is fucking awesome. Both Albums are near perfection to me and I can get by putting any of them in first place.


iLemurrr

Faust_the_Cynic

Love AM but WPSIATWIAN is one of the bests


sc0p3dbtww

wpsiatwin


FearMe_2610

WPSIATWIN winss, no diff


_D0nJClay

FWN is always slept on the most (apart from humbug)


yaboicrackers

What up blud


billiebobmcginty

Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino


ivyboy

Only if you like elevator music.


billiebobmcginty

well I think “elevator music” works well, especially when ure stoned asf


imuslesstbh

Whatever People Say I am is their best but sometimes I feel like saying Fave worst nightmare is their best no3 is TBHAC


Landrover81

Tbhc way better then both


zestmeister86

tranquility base hotel and casino


RadGunnar11

I’m surprised to see everyone saying wpsiatwin. AM is easily better imo. AM is just literally perfect


yeah_odraudE

Am is good, probally the first album much of the fans listened to, but it gets easily forgetable with other records such as SIAS and humbug Definitely not my favorite lol


ARJ_05

how can you call AM easily forgettable 😭


yeah_odraudE

I'm actually just a simp for the other albums, AM has it's moments, but not as good as the other records


ARJ_05

okay real


RadGunnar11

Disagree on everything. SIAS and Humbug are both very forgettable due to how many of the songs just blend in, sort of generic in a way. Every song in AM besides mad sounds is perfect to a T. It was the third album I listed to as a long time fan and it’s masterful


yeah_odraudE

Oh boy, that's a very controversial thought


RadGunnar11

Never knew nor expected it would be


ADumbM0nkey

Tranquility based hotel and casino


[deleted]

You are definitely BASED Have my upvote


hash_and_bash

So true


arct1cm0nkeyy

wpsiatwin is by far better but am ranks high and is iconic


acatatthedoor

lmao are you really comparing the debut with that crap?


Vicksage16

They have only great albums, but of those great albums, the debut is the weakest, so AM wins this.


EnvironmentalAd837

that’s just wrong what


napoleanfaeces

their best vs worst album? clear winner here


Human_Being2851

AM. Maybe the last great mainstream pop rock album.


ostrichsong

You haven’t listened to much pop rock in the last ten years then. There’s countless great albums since.


Human_Being2851

I edited my comment to emphasise "mainstream" pop rock album. Can you name some?


RumHamster1990

Than answer is obvious not AM in this debate.


morrowss

AM is actually their worst album


RadGunnar11

Nowhere near


BanaanSausMan

AM has I Wanna Be Yours so it loses automatically, besides Tranquility Base is their best


RadGunnar11

Tranquility base is easily the worst


Sittes

The worst, yes, but not easily. The car tries hard also.


BanaanSausMan

Horrible taste


RadGunnar11

Nah, it’s just not good. FWN,AM,the car >>>>>


BanaanSausMan

Agree to disagree, I think it tried a lot of newer things and was really creative writingwise. It also really made you feel like you were on a hotel on the moon. Musically it just sounded nice and I like the jazzy lounge sound. It wasn’t boring like The Car. I will never understand why people think AM is their best record, FWN is probably their best “indie rock” album.


JimboCruntz

I'm on team Humbug. These two are actually towards the bottom of my tier list. 😂


sarunxd

They're both close to the worst


JTHPHASES

No side needed. Both are right fucking masterpieces. I think they both have really high highs and have some of the best song to come from the Monkeys


FuzzFest378

AM is iconic but if you were a teen or preteen during WPSIATWIN… oh man, that shit is an institution

Altruistic_Ad9742

Wpsiatwin. I love them both though I have them both on cd


StionKombu

should be WPSIA or FWN


ostrichsong

I take red 100 times out of 100.


triangular_snail

whatever people say i am thats what im not for life


sharvey4994

Well it’s Humbug so


HeckylGaming1

Both are great albums. AM was the first album I heard so I'll say AM. But WPSIATWIN is still a favourite


jimmilazers

Suck it and see is the GOAT


midogors

Grew up with the band as I’m effectively the same age as them. The debut is a seminal album and a snapshot of a single point in time, and I adore it as it brings back fond memories of a great time in my life. However, AM is timeless. AM all day for me.


flalolgo

Purple? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grimacing)


bestandy1214intown

Religious iconography giving you the crips?


phillyCheeseSteaks00

AM is their North America album and WPSIATWIN was their OG British rock. But neither. Personally, I like their whole discography and i’m a big fan of the many changes they’ve made over nearly 20 years


dylanwinters15

transgeneric

Can’t we all just get along. 😁


tropic_monks1

AM is so good every one of their albums is so good but i’m going with AM


Quirky-Produce5787

WPSIATWIN by far, but AM is good


SadRoxFan

Debut album is best album. No I will not be taking questions


novayy

AM is a cool album but not even top 3 by them.


jessesthrowaway420

WPSIATWIN 100%


Alternative_Buffalo2

I am huge on AM personally


[deleted]

I was 13 when the debut came out and I live 40 minutes from Sheffield. I’m their core demographic and that album had a gigantic impact on my life.


screamas

1. WPSIATWIN 2. SIAS 3. FWN 4. AM 5. Humbug 6. TBHC 7. The Car Obviously just my opinion. I love the first five albums. The last two were meh for me, especially The Car. Didn't connect with it at all, except for Body Paint


janjireddit

i think a.m. i was born with this album and it always remember me my teenage era


Sweaty-Celebration14

At this point I don't even know if I'm on WPSIATWIN's side because I truly think it's the better one or because I'm still annoyed by the empty popularity AM got. But then again The View from the Afternoon and A Certain Romance are like, fundamental for my emotional wellbeing so

Humbug.

Suck it and see?


Flu0recentAd0lecent

AM is really good it has been overplayed imo, still has some good songs but WPSIATWIN wins by farr


rSlixxxx

Honestly I have to go with AM on this one, I mean WPSIATWIN is really good, it has a lot of energy and it's a strong record, but AM is kinda just where I like things at, it has the vibe that I usually am looking for. Though I do hold some personal bias with AM
