Arctic Monkeys set for "heavy" new album, Blur debut tracks, half of Girls quit, Band Of Horses new LP preview... Daily Hot List
Tuesday, 3 July

Arctic Monkeys say they're next album will be heavier than current LP Suck It And See. "We feel the strength of the last record is 'Don't Sit Down...', the other songs like that - Brick By Brick - the other side of it is fine, but I don't know how much more of that we can do," explained singer Alex Turner. I think we're going to go the direction of those heavier tunes. We did R U Mine?, and I think that's where it's going to be at for us for the next record."
