What?  Did you think I would reveal the top 11 albums of the decade without a little suspense?  I’m taking a pit-stop for a couple of days to focus on some new releases this week.  First up…the new Arctic Monkeys album, Humbug, produced by QOTSA melody maker, Josh Homme.   It’s a much darker turn for the AMers…sounding like Josh had a big influence on the sound.  Is it a good direction for the band?  Hard to say…still giving it some spins before I lay out my verdict. 

 

What are you thoughts on the new album?
