Song Of The Day- Arctic Monkeys

These guys are a really solid alternative rock outfit getting ready to release their third album Humbug which will drop in the U.S. August 25.

Their debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not is where I first heard them and it's also worth a look.

Their sound appears to have changed a bit for the mellow based on the first single "Crying Lightning", but I like the direction and their live rendition packs a bit bigger punch.

The video for this track is pretty simple, but I find it visually appealing. Plus these guys are from England, so you know it's good.


In other news, football season is rapidly approaching so keep an eye out for Brian and I's college football previews. Also, Our newest writer Chris Jones has something in the works. Seriously. I promise.

Song of the Day - July 12, 2008

Today's cut comes from across the pond. Arctic Monkeys formed in 2002 and are usually classified as indie rock or post-punk revival. Whatever you call it, these guys make infectiously catchy music with an edge to it. "I Bet You Look Good on The Dance Floor" is off their 2006 debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not which became at the time the fastest-selling debut album in British history. I can't help but dance around when this song comes on. This particular version is a performance from the Glastonbury Festival in 2007.
