Fresh from their multiple wins at the UK’s GRAMMY-equivalent BRIT AWARDS, where they took home the two major titles of Best British Band and Album Of The Year, and at the fan-voted NME Awards, where they won five awards, Arctic Monkeys continue their global winning streak with a return to the top of the Alternative Charts with AM’s first single “Do I Wanna Know?”. The track is still the #1 most played alternative song in the USA, even as second single “Why’d You Only Call Me When I’m High?” impacts at radio. In the UK the band are on to single #4: live favorite “Arabella”. Watch the video above.
AM is Arctic Monkeys critically acclaimed fifth album. Released last September on Domino it earned the band their fifth consecutive UK #1 and, at #6, their highest ever Billboard Album Chart placing. Arctic Monkeys recently completed a sold out tour of the US, which included a performance at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
