Yes, yet more new album news. Hang in there. Arctic Monkeys have almost finished their second album, and frontman Alex Turner has been talking to The Sun about it.
Speaking about the difference between writing the new long player and their 2006 debut, the frontman says: "With the last one everything was already written and it was just a case of recording. But with this we've been writing while we've been in the studio which I always thought would be difficult. We've also been getting more help from our producers, Mike Crossey and James Ford from Simian Mobile Disco who we'd worked with before on b-sides."
He continues: "It's definitely different — a step on, I guess. We're all better at playing us instruments. It's as simple as that really. It's a bit louder and a bit faster in places but we've still got the slow bits as well."
