Everyone's now hyping Arctic Monkeys but damn it, this time they could actually be an act that's the real deal (even they don't want to chance it and Alex gives a hesistantly sardonic "Don't believe the hype" before they start their performance on their music video).

I'm tipping them for a Mercury Music Prize nomination (as is probably any muso with half a brain) but not the win.

Album's released proper in February 2006.

Hopefully the fans who've built them up on the internet go and buy it as well as what could be an ever increasing fanbase. Having heard seventeen tracks or so, they're very good indeed.

....hearing them though is like taking a coupla steps back in time though.
