Arctic Monkeys

"Leave Before The Lights Come On" was a highlight of their recent US tour, offering fans a taster for its eventual release. The song shows the band taking some stylistic chances, with a surf melody motif that kicks off before they settle into an unmistakably Arctics groove and lyrical sentiment. The two b-sides are covers: The Little Flames' "Put Your Dukes Up", and the 60's Barbara Lewis chestnut "Baby, I'm Yours", performed with The 747s. Watch for the new video starring Paddy Considine (In America) and Kate Ashfield (Shaun Of The Dead).
