Arctic Monkeys Biography


"I used to work in a bar at venues and it really annoyed me when bands would say 'We've got CDs for sale at the back, three pound each'," says Alex. "You'd think 'Fuck off, who do you think you are?' We had this one time where people were literally running up to the stage clambering for these demos, a right frenzy, and we were thinking 'Fucking hell this is cool'.

With demos doing the rounds, across the web and at gigs, bizarre things started happening. Bizarre things like turning up for gigs in Wakefield to be greeted by hardcore Monkeys fans who'd driven from places as far away as Aberdeen. And when the band played the Boardwalk at the start of this year they were greeted with the entire crowd singing the lyrics to 'When The Sun Goes Down', a song that's never been released (at the time of writing this, the band have released just one single).

Alex: "I had to stop playing, I were pissing meself! It just erupted into this thing. We had people crowd-surfing and landing on monitors. In Manchester this kid came flying over the crowd and his cheek just smashed on the side of the stage. Another kid came over and just rolled across, a perfect land like a gymnast. But best is when everyone's just bouncing."
