    I like it, very Humbug-ish, no doubt the people who only love the first two albums won't get it. I'm looking forward to the 5th album as I feel they've never made a bad album and actually got better with each album.

    I like it. Has a nice bass line. Hopefully all the album isn't as Josh Homme-y though, a good track.

    Has the feel of a James Bond theme. Just love that dark groove it has and the video is great.

    Yep, hope ye're all ready, lads. UK tour being announced after Glasto. I haven't got the word on any more Irish dates (other than EP, obviously) but I'm hoping they won't do the dog on us this time round, like last time.

    Just a live version but I really like it, studio version should be even better. New album looking good, very humbug-y which I love.



    Ooh La La La :D

    Someone needs to remind Alex Turner he's not from New York City he's from Rotherham (Sheffield) going by his accent at Glastonbury.

    Just watched their set on the BBC, Turner came across like a cheesy karaoke bingo caller.

    That's what he was going for, the kinda Billy Fury/Elvis showmanship approach. It seemed to be nearly like a character he donned for the gig. I thought it was quite entertaining and he'd good audience interaction.

    Great set too. I'm looking forward to their new album even more now.

    I'm only a few songs in. Is he taking the píss or what?

    Between the new look and talking like a knob..

    Ludicrous.

    Yeah he was playing a 50's style rocker playing up to the crowd who clearly loved it. The Guy changes things up and that set at Glastonbury was a cracker.

    To the guys saying he's acting like a knob should stop taking it all so serious.

    Oh just enjoy it, he's playing it up. Stop been a snob. Stop acting like Frontmen don't act like that.

    Act like what? Doing a Shakin' Stevens impression while talking like you're from a different part of the world. I don't know any other front man who does that. What's the point? I don't get it.

    I like the band too.

    I taught along with Primal Scream and Chic the set of the festival so far.

    I did think it was a great set, he annoys me now though. Strategically lighting up a smoke to appear cool, and having a go at people in the crowd for not waving their arms to Pretty Little Visitors. Won't take away from their music one bit though personally speaking. Love the new tune too.
