Arctic Monkeys 'Arabella' (Video)

Those lovable rogues from Sheffield The Arctic Monkeys have released the next video off their hugely impressive AM opus from last year, 'Arabella'. Released on Monday 10th March, the video for the track opts for a swaggering black and white offering which mimics the bluesy strut of the track itself, similar in retro appeal to Kings of Leon's 'Temple video', although considerably raunchier than the Americana of the Nashville brothers. Watch it below (warning, it's a little bit naughty).

It's very reflective of "that rock n roll" which frontman Alex Turner described in his recent acceptance speech at the Brit Awards, further positioning the group as the nation's saviour of classic guitar focused sound. There simply hasn't been a bigger or more important group from this island in the Twenty First Century, and whilst Turner's comments and attitude has been divisive it certainly hasn't contributed to the group losing any of their lustre, with the noir glam of this video further enhancing their rock n roll credentials.

They're shaping up for a huge summer, with two sold out shows in Hyde Park in May, another performance in Dublin's Marlay Park and headlining Scotalnd's T in the Park. They will also be returning to Reading and Leeds Festival on the headline tip in August, graicng both stages across the double header of festivals. Ticket information for those is below.
