Let us not get carried away here. For all that Black Country Communion’s first album was hailed as proof that ‘super-groups’ can work, it was definitely not groundbreaking. Bringing together the collective talents of Glenn Hughes, Jason Bonham (son of John of Led Zeppelin), Bloodline blues guitarist Joe Bonamassa and ex-Dream Theater keyboardist Derek Sherinian does not lead to gold stirring material; as expected, we instead received an accomplished hard rock record.

After embracing the dark side with their third album 'Humbug', opinion on the Arctic Monkeys was clearly divided. Whilst some fans followed the Monkeys’ down their new dark and dangerous path, many bemoaned the band’s decision to grow their hair long and stop singing songs about fights outside of the taxi rank. However, 'Suck It and See' shows a band letting the sunshine in by embracing conventional pop formula and recapturing the humour that characterised their earlier work.
