If you were in need of exciting news on this cloudy September morning, this is it: Arctic Monkeys are touring the UK and Ireland in spring next year.

The Sheffield-born band shot to fame in the UK in 2006 after the release of their debut album, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, and quickly became the soundtrack for indie kids everywhere. The 2006 album was the fastest-selling debut album in UK chart history, and many people credit the band’s fame to the internet (which had only just become a popular way to discover new music, would you believe!).

Arctic Monkeys’ second album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, won Best British Album at the 2008 BRIT Awards and is responsible for tunes like Fluorescent Adolescent, 505, and Brianstorm.

Jump forward a few years and Arctic Monkeys’ international fame came with the success of their fifth album, AM. AM topped four Billboard charts and became platinum in the US. It’s no wonder, then, that we know so many people with an AM album cover art tattoo...

Now, the band are gearing up for the release of their seventh studio album, very simply named The Car. It’s set to be released on Friday 21st October 2022, and you can listen to its debut single, There'd Better Be a Mirrorball, right now.

In support of the album, the northern rock band are also going on tour! You can catch Arctic Monkeys on various dates across the UK and Ireland next spring.

Plus, as some eagle-eyed fans have pointed out, the tour dates don’t clash with Glastonbury Festival (21st June to 25th June 2023), so there’s the chance you could see Arctic Monkeys When the Sun Goes Down at the Somerset farm...

Arctic Monkeys will be joined by special guests The Hives and The Mysterines on tour.
