Description
The No.1 debut from Arctic Monkey’s frontman Alex Turner and The Rascals’ Miles Kane. This side project (recorded in a mere two weeks) was lauded by critics, with NME describing it as “Incredible … an awesome achievement” and The Times as “One of the most outstanding British pop albums of recent years”.
The 12 songs offer a soaring collection of dramatic and symphonic, 60s-tinged pop. With a 22–piece orchestra, galloping violins, bold brass and stampeding drums, the music has a touch of Scott Walker and Ennio Morricone’s spaghetti western film scores, but given a bracing energy and original contemporary bite. The album hurtled into the charts at No 1 was one of the most memorable albums of 2008. Recreate the songs yourself with this collection of accurate transcriptions for guitar and vocals.
