New Arctic Monkeys Album This Summer!

The Arctic Monkeys are two thirds closer to their follow-up to 2007’s “Your Favourite Weapon.” The third release for the Sheffield boys is being produced by Josh Homme, frontman of Queens of the Stoneage.
Although an unlikely pair, Arctic Monkey Alex Turner admits sessions are going well. “It’s been great fun,” Turner said. “We went out to the desert for a little bit, we did two sessions with Josh, we had a great time.”
Turner added, “It’s quite an inspiring place, there’s a certain element of dust in the sound of it.”
Turner told Australian network Triple J to expect the album by the summer.
The Arctic Monkeys debuted new material January 12 in New Zealand at the Wellington Town Hall. The boys performed “Dangerous Animals,” “Pretty Visitors,” “Go Cart” and “Crying Lightning.”
“Would You Like Me To Build You a Go Kart? “
