Arctic Monkeys Biography
Citing influences such as the Jam, the Clash, and the Smiths,
the Arctic Monkeys create a vibrant punk-inspired sound well suited for
Britpop and alternative rock fans alike. Alex Turner (vocals/guitar),
Jamie Cook (guitar), Andy Nicholson (bass), and Matt Helders (drums)
formed the Arctic Monkeys in Sheffield, England, in 2003. A year prior,
Turner and Cook received guitars for Christmas. From there, these
teenagers made practicing an obsession, memorizing hits by the White
Stripes and the Vines. A deal with Domino, the label home to Franz
Ferdinand and Clinic, followed in spring 2004. Rambunctious first
single I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor debuted at number one on
the U.K. singles chart in October 2005. Their debut album, Whatever
People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, was issued in January 2006;
within a day of its release, the album sold 118,501 copies in the U.K.
-- and over 350,000 its first week -- setting a record for more records
sold than the rest of the Top 20 album chart combined. In America, the
album scraped the bottom of the Top 40. The Arctic Monkeys wasted no
time releasing new material, and that spring the EP Who the F**k Are
Arctic Monkeys appeared. On their first North American tour, bassist
Andy Nicholson sat out due to fatigue. Nick O'Malley temporarily
stepped in to play the tour, and when the band announced that Nicholson
was out of the group in June 2006, O'Malley was ultimately named a
permanent member. The Arctic Monkeys' good fortune continued when that
fall they were named the recipients of the 2006 Mercury Prize, the
prize money from which they donated to an undisclosed charity. That
same year, the guys also nabbed Best British Breakthrough Act at the
Brit Awards and Best New Band and Best British Band at the NME Awards.
(NME also made the bold assertion that the band's debut was one of the
Top Five British albums ever released.) Weathering through the hype,
the Arctic Monkeys kept working and their sophomore album, Favourite
Worst Nightmare, surfaced in April 2007. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music
