Arctic Monkeys are pleased to announce that they will be performing at
Lollapalooza 2009 in Chicago, Illinois.
Brits and Yanks alike went nuts over Favourite Worst Nightmare, the 2007
sophomore album by Sheffield, England, lads the Arctic Monkeys. In fact, it
shot to the top of the UK charts in its first week. But so did the band’s
first effort, 2006’s Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, which
was the fastest-selling debut album ever in England and garnered the Arctic
Monkeys the coveted Mercury Prize. The legend of the band was built on the
Internet, as fans ripped early demo CD-R’s onto their computers and released
them into the ether, along the way creating a highly trafficked MySpace page
for the Monkeys. The band did its best to eschew the hype its music has created
, upending a label feeding frenzy by signing with the small, U.K. independent
Domino Records. Comprising Alex Turner (vocals, guitar), Jamie Cook (guitar),
Nick O'Malley (bass) and Matt Helders (drums), the band's fast-and-loud, post-
punk indie sound lays a foundation for Turner’s wry observations on British
working-class culture a la Morrissey or Pulp’s Jarvis Cocker. The Arctic
Monkeys began work on their much-anticipated third album last year.
