Arctic Monkeys have revealed the first details of their new album.

The group, who won the Mercury Prize last week for the acclaimed debut "Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not", are now understood to be recording a follow-up.

Speaking about the recordings, which only began very recently, drummer Matt Helders suggested the Sheffield band would be taking their time.

He explained: "It's shaping up good. We started messing about with the new songs last Friday in our rehearsal room.

"We can't wait to get on with recording them. There's no pressure on us, no worries about that. We just can't wait to get going properly on them."

Meanwhile, singer and main creative force Alex Turner, elaborated further about the direction he expected the record to take.

"We have learned a lot as musicians, but we haven't started taking cocaine or 'owt like that. We could say 'we've moved on' but every band thinks that.

"There's a few themes, but I need to organise it. The first album was very organised. By writing a few songs, I manage to piece the idea where everything runs together and it becomes one story," he said.

i bet it wont be as good as the first, they never are! But could be worth a listen
 
What with all their demos and EPs and so on they seem to have a vast amount of material, surprised they haven't spread the releases out a bit more!

They won't be singing about punch-ups on a Friday night now that they are rich celebs presumably?

Arctic Monkeys - Over hyped commercialistic shite.

Not really too bad a band, but nowhere near as good as society might suggest

They werent over hyped commericalistic shite back last year.

Great lads, good band, great album.

Twatty NME and co come along and laud them as the next 'classic' band.

I feel sorry for him what ever happens next we will be trashed. It will hard for them to write about the stuff they have done.
 
They came along and got a great following due to being in the right place at the right time.

They became brilliant with a masive following before releasing any records and are worth it, I saw them ages back and was stunned by how good they were.

Now that they are a big name it's only right for everyone to slag them off, ain't it??? :icon_conf

I hope the new LP is as ragged and lively as the first but as the current single is a little weak, things could go downhill fast. A shame that all the 'unreleased' early stuff (Ravey Ravey Ravey Club, Knock a door run, MI5, etc) won't get a propper release.
