We All Want Someone To Shout For Is Two Years Old!

By Will | July 30, 2010

I was going through my blog archives the other day and wanted to see the official date that I started my blog. Sure enough it was July 30th, 2008, which means we are now officially 2 years young. Woah, where the hell did the last two years go? It seems like it was only yesterday [...]

By Will | July 12, 2010

Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys (you may have heard of them around here once or twice) is scoring a movie soundtrack. He has written songs for a movie called Submarine, which will be directed by Richard Ayoade. Submarine is based on a novel written by Welsh writer Joe Dunthorne. You can buy it here. [...]

Haydé – Only Ones Who Know (Arctic Monkeys Cover)

By Will | June 16, 2010

After posting the Arctic’s cover of Only You Know, I stumbled across someone else covering one of their songs. It turns out it was a cover of their under-appreciated Favourite Worst Nightmare cut, “Only Ones Who Know”. It was done by Haydé, a lady from Belgium. Great cover by Ms. Haydé. Sweeping and sincere. [mp3]: [...]

Arctic Monkeys – Only You Know (Dion Cover)

By Will | June 15, 2010

I just realized I never shared this Arctic Monkeys cover with you guys. It’s the band’s cover of Dion’s “Only You Know” from when they visited radio station 101.9 RXP back in December 2009. The Monkeys are truly one of a kind. This cover is brilliant. If your an Arctic fan, this is a must [...]

[video] Arctic Monkeys – Dance Little Liar/Pretty Visitors (Live With Josh Homme)

By Will | April 22, 2010

I haven’t posted anything Arctic Monkeys related for a while because…well..there hasn’t been too much to report. They just released the My Propeller EP/Single and now they are just touring. However, my buddy Blake is lucky enough to go to multiple Arctic shows, and he captures plenty of great footage of them. Two of these [...]

Easter Delivers Arctic Monkey Covers

By Will | April 4, 2010

My friend Nic showed me this awesome instrumental cover of the Arctic’s 4 year old (time is flying by!) hit song, When The Sun Goes Down done by Lack Of Afro. It’s been around since 2007, but this is my first time hearing the song. Lack Of Afro molded the song into a funky jam [...]

[NEW] Arctic Monkeys – The Afternoon’s Hat

By Will | March 19, 2010

It’s so amazing to see how far along the boys have come since 2005. Not only in terms of their own growth from young lads to men, but also as musicians. Their sound has gotten darker, as they have become more apt at playing their instruments. Alex Turner has developed great lengths as a singer, [...]

[Music Video] Arctic Monkeys – My Propeller

By Will | March 18, 2010

A little disappointed with the new video to be honest. It has some cool images and visuals, but it was just alright. Sorta boring at times. If anything it focused on how great of a drummer Matt is. Where was Nick though? Practically absent from the whole video. Cheers to Ben for the tip that [...]

Preview Arctic Monkeys My Propeller B-Sides

By Will | March 10, 2010

Amazon has short preview clips of all the new b-sides off of the Arctic Monkeys new EP/Single that you can listen to now. Joining The Dots sounds great with the rest of the band, although I am not sure how I feel about that guitar riff. I kinda like how stripped it was in the [...]

By Will | March 4, 2010

The Arctic’s posted the following secret video on their website which also holds a little preview of Don’t Forget Whose Legs You’re On, a song that will be on the My Propeller single. It sounds pretty much like nothing that we’ve heard from the boys before. I’m really eager to hear the full thing….Talk about [...]
