Arctic Monkeys are a four-piece indie rock band from Sheffield, England, whose debut single, "I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor", went straight to number one.
In fact "I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor" is one of their cruddier songs compared to the likes of 'Scummy', 'Mardy Bum' and 'Fake Tales of San Fracisco'.
They are known for their modern -
" Last night these two bouncers
And one of em's alright
The other one's the scary one
His way or no way, totalatarian "
and witty lyrics
"And all the weekend rockstars in the toilets
Practicing their lines "

A great band if you're a teenager living in the states, having 'panic! at the disco'or 'fall out boy' shoved down your throat. Fresh lyrics and sound, perhaps a bit overrated and most certainly not nearly groundbreaking or inventive enough to be the next 'beatles'. If you're interested in great bands from the UK, check out the Kaiser Chiefs or The Kooks.
Person 1: Man, I'm so sick of stupid emo boys with no balls wearing girl pants and eyeliner.
Person 2: Listen to the Arctic Monkeys, they're so much better.
Person 1: Nah, I'll go listen to the Kaiser Chiefs
