They went stoner on us
Not a surprise since Josh Homme helped mixing and mastering the album.

Antoine-Øleg :

Not bad, not bad at all!. I like Arctic Monkeys' "new" style, a bit darker and steps away from that generic Indie thing of recent years.

the_hoodster :

I have the new album, I quite like it and I don't really listen to arctic monkeys!

AndyH :

I always preferred their upbeat songs. I hope the rest of the album isn't this slower "look how deep we are" stuff.

Dr Dynamyte :

Lol, I don't think they're trying to be THAT deep. This song has food references. But still amazing lyrics by Alex, and I think it's great that they're stepping outside their comfort zone of power chords and fast time signatures. They are doing what they please and I respect that..and like it.

PedrotheDuck :

to be honest i prefer their old material. Not saying it's a bad song, i just think it's not their style. Liked the video tough

guy_tebache :

Yeah I dont know. You'd be pretty hard pressed to find a bigger Arctic Monkeys fan than me. But this clip... I think I hate it.
I loved the simplicity of clips like "The View from the Afternoon" and "Leave before the lights come on". No special effects, no tricks, just a little story told by the film. And that worked well with their music because telling stories is what they do best.

Anyway, as far as these guys go, its a good song but not their best and the video is... barely passable.

Silord1 :

Never been a fan but I always liked the fact that they were really intense and different to all the other indy shite.. they seem to have lost that intensity....

Agree that solo sounds like homme.. in fact it sounds like he played it
