Any fans of Arctic Monkeys on here? Their new album 'AM' (sorry Beady Eye...) is out September 9th, featuring the singles "R U Mine?" and "Do I Wanna Know?". They also posted a new music video earlier today for their newest single, entitled "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?" (so many questions...), anyway, the video's below so check it out and let's discuss some monkeys business!

Wasn't fully into these boys until Suck it and See now I'm a massive fan. Love the back catalogue and some songs that I never really noticed I am a big fan of. The new album is shaping up to be fantastic! Seeing them in Manchester in November and I can't wait already

I like the new single, though it's different to what I was expecting. I was hoping for a slightly heavier Humbug, but I'm a bit worried after Alex saying the album sounds a bit like Dr. Dre at times. Thankfully there's no rapping on it though!
Anyone else got tickets for their tour later this year? I've got tickets for their gig at The Hydro in Glasgow. The venue doesn't open until next month and Arctic Monkeys will be the first time I go, so I'm looking forward to the gig to see what the venue's like.
I seen them a couple of years ago in Glasgow and didn't think they were that great, they didn't seem into it.

I'm seeing them in Liverpool at the Echo Arena, I haven't managed to go see them, it's like every time they tour in my area, I'm either really busy or away - typical. Being said, I'm looking forward to it, and I'm looking forward to the new album, I really liked Suck It and See, but Humbug was a hit and miss for me, some songs I love like Crying Lightning and Pretty Visitors, but others just didn't click with me.

I can't wait, got tickets for them in Glasgow and I'm really excited for the new album. R U Mine? is my favourite Arctic Monkeys songs and genuinely one of my favourite songs ever. Do I Wanna Know? is also fantastic so it's shaping up really well for the album!
So buy a fucking t-shirt and a poster on the way out you fuckers!
Arctic Monkeys unveil trippy video for 'Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?'
The video, directed by Nabil, sees a drunk Alex Turner leave the rest of the band behind in a bar to seek out a 4am booty call. As he travels down the road towards the house of the girl he is texting, he is fraught with highly-sexual hallucinations and encounters unsavoury characters.

Least favorite track of the songs that have been released. Even prefer 2013 to this. Dont like the video either. That being said its my 2nd most anticipated album of the year following the new Arcade Fire album.
Loved the Video, Alex Drunk acting was top notch. "Alex Band Guy" text at the end was funny. This album is shaping up to make them huge again. Been a fan of these guy's for years, Turner is probably Britain's greatest songwriter since Albarn/Gallagher.
I loved Suck It & See so I'm really looking forward to AM. Do I Wanna Know? is a great song, had it on repeat for days. This new song is also a treat.
Suck it and See is so under rated it's crazy. Some stunning song's on that album but never got the love it deserved. Still think Brick By Brick is the only blip on the album. Some of Turner's best writing and That's were your Wrong is a under rated classic.
