The species of monkey, that originates from the Arctic (and Sheffield). They rock the british-new-music-scene’s socks off

Sheffield (England) band, featuring Alex Turner, Jamie Cook, Andy Nicholson and Matt Helders. Universally loved for their conversational, colloquialism-heavy lyrics (bordering on the pretentious); solid rock sound and accented vocals. The band was formed around 2002, and released two UK No. 1's in 2005. Their album, 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not', was released on 23 January, 2006, and criticised by some for displaying a man smoking on the cover (to which I say: as if kids want to look like that guy!)
Me: Hey, have you heard that new Arctic Monkeys song?
Friend: Yeah, I love Arctic Monkeys! Are you going to their Sydney gig?

4 beautiful boys from Sheffield. They write catchy songs and the NME love them (rightly so). Apparently they're awesome live. I will confirm this on March 29
Arctic Monkeys are soo good. Can't wait for the album (Jan 23 UK, Jan 26 North America UK IMPORT, Feb 21 North America)

A really underground band that your mate might tel, you about at the bus stop after school. But their like really underground like nobody has heard of them at all. If you meet someone who’s heard of them that’s like winning the lottery
Yeah I don’t like popular music, I really like underground bands like Arctic Monkeys
