    How about, hold the record for attendance at a gig at Glastonbury, 120,000 people. Thats 12,500 more than attended Oasis in 1995.

    And probably still could. Arctic monkeys would struggle to fill Don Valley

    Actually, What I meant to say were,fasting selling in its first day. Plus, Glastonbury accomadates 170,000 people laddo, so it wasnt the festival. It was an estimated guess taken by experts I suppose.

    MGMT, dont make me laugh.

    RE: Arctic Monkeys - ok I suppose

    but hardly in the same league as Pink Floyd, Zepplin, or King Crimson mate. Not even better than most of the modern lot like the Killers, the Raconteurs, Snow Patrol, Franz Ferdinand etc.

    And on top of that they are from SHEFFIELD.

    RE: Arctic Monkeys - ok I suppose

    I agree with DonnyRed they are a quality band and to be honest i don't care what any others think, its my opinion and if you don't like it don't listen and **** off. Some way to go to be better/bigger than Oasis but they can do it.

    So, based on their debut album being the fastest selling.

    Apart from, just how do they judge that, is it most sold in first day, first week, first month?

    Let's accept your opinion that it makes them one of the best bands of all time.

    You do realise that, prior to that, the fastest selling debut album was Girls Aloud?! so I take it you must have that in your collection as well, as they must also be one of the best groups ever?
