| Arctic Monkeys Talk About Split With Andy | ||
 Arctic Monkeys have finally spoke of ex-bass player Andy Nicholson's departure. The band found themselves backstage at Oxegen festival on the Gonzo brown couch with Zane Lowe and explained how touring played a part in Andy leaving the band and that they're all still good mates.Guitarist Jamie Cook said: "I sent him a message yesterday actually, telling him to have a good one and that." Frontman Alex Turner added: "To start with we were in Lisbon at the end of the European thing and he decided he didn’t want to come to America. And that was cool, and then, I don’t know, I guess we found ourselves in this situation by the end of the American tour. "I mean, a lot happens, it’s not just like three weeks in a normal thing, it’s three weeks with your head all over the place. I mean, it’s a difficult thing to explain, I don’t think anyone will really understand this except us three and Andy" |

As some of you may remember a while ago we added a bootleg from Toronto, during the April Arctic Monkeys tour, and we wrongly named it a the performance from the Air Canada Centre where they supported Oasis. Well we;ve actually got that bootleg now, woo! Click Here for the Toronto Air Canada Centre Bootleg The second bootleg is also from the April tour. This time at the Transbordeur in Lyon, France. Click Here for the Lyon Transbordeur Bootleg The final bootleg is from the most recent North American tour where Austin, Texas had the pleasure of Arctic Monkeys outdoors at Stubb's. Click Here for the Texas Stubb's Bootleg We haven't had any acoustics in a while, and there's a been a few recently. The first recording is 'No Buses' from the LeMouv' 'Nova' live radio session in France. During this session, the band played a new song called "I've Been Here Before' though nobody managed to record this. We've also got a full radio session from 99x Studios' 'Live X' session in Atlanta. The session includes both 'Riot Van' and 'No Buses' performed acoustic and also an interview with the lads. Click Here For Acoustic Downloads Click Here For Interviews |

| Andy Nicholson Leaves Arctic Monkeys | ||
 This is a sad day in the world of music.from arcticmonkeys.com... We are sad to tell everyone that Andy is no longer with the band. Nick O’Malley, who stood in for Andy while he was absent from the recent tour of North America, shall carry on playing bass for the remaining shows this summer. We have been mates with Andy for a long time and have been through some amazing things together that no one can take away. We all wish Andy the very best. Alex, Jamie and Matt. |
