A few weeks back, we got the Arctic Monkeys’ video for “Do I Wanna Know?” and up to then, speculation started to surround whether or not the band would be releasing a new album sometime soon.
Sure enough, the band announced that they would be releasing a brand new album titled AM on September 10 through Domino Records. Today, the band have released the B-side to “Do I Wanna Know?,” “2013.” The song, will not appear on the new release which means that it’s time to take advantage and listen to the song on repeat.
Tell us what you think of the song? Should it have been included on AM?
Just a week ago, the Arctic Monkeys released the music video for their first single, “Do I Wanna Know?” which left fans wondering when the announcement that a new album was coming would make its presence.
Well, those asking lots of question finally go their answer and probably a lot more than they had hoped. The English rockers revealed that their new album will be titled AM and will be released on September 10 through Domino. This album which will be the band’s fifth album will serve as a follow-up to 2010’s Suck and See It.
The album will also feature several guest-star including Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme, veteran Elvis Costello drummer, Pete Thomas and Bill Ryder-Jones from the band, The Coral. The last track, “I Wanna Be Yours,” will feature spoken words from “punk poet” John Cooper Clarke.
