The Last Shadow Puppets Release Their Debut Single
Regardless of the hype, I've loved the Arctic Monkeys since I first heard about them three years ago while studying abroad in the UK. I'm not one to turn on music I genuinly like, simply because it becomes successful...or rather mega successful in this case. Check out lead singer Alex Turner's side project: The Last Shadow Puppets
[The Last Shadow Puppets are Alex Turner (from Arctic Monkeys) and Miles Kane (from The Rascals). Firm friends ever since Arctic Monkeys toured with Kane's previous group, The Little Flames, the pair were so inspired by listening to the likes of Scott Walker, early Bowie and David Axelrod, that they hatched a plan. The result is 'The Age Of The Understatement'.
The Last Shadow Puppets debut single entitled 'The Age Of The Understatement' will be released on Monday 14th April 2008. The album, of the same name, will follow a week later on Monday 21st April.
The single features exclusive b-sides, including the band's 'Two Hearts In Two Weeks' and interpretations of David Bowie's 'In The Heat Of The Morning' and Billy Fury's 'Wondrous Place'."] Source: ArcticMonkeys.com
