Fluorescent Adolescent
All the other tracks!
I've been disappointed by this album. The Arctic's first album is one of my favourites ever but Favourite Worst Nightmare is has a different and quite depressing vibe which takes the fun out it for me.
Only 'Fluorescent Adolescent' reminds me of the cheeky, upbeat sound of the majority of 'Whatever People Say..." and the remainder of the album is much less accessible and I'd be really surprised if this album spawns more than one hit single.
You could argue that this album shows that the Arctics have grown up but I still think it's a shame because I thought they had something special going which alas now seems to be lost.
