Arctic Monkeys have previewed their upcoming single online. The track, entitled 'Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair', appeared on YouTube late last night, and you can listen to the snippet below.
The song will be played in its entirety for the first time on Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show next Monday (April 11th). The band are also set to release the song on a limited-edition white label 7” vinyl for Record Store Day on April 16th. The vinyl will feature previously-unveiled track ‘Brick By Brick’ as its b-side.
Listen to the 30-second clip of 'Don't Sit Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair' here:
Meanwhile, Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner has called for a new guitar band to come and “turn the charts upside down”. In an interview with NME this week, Turner claimed that the next chart sensation will not be a modern or electronic act, but rather a naive guitar-based band.
He said: "Everyone thinks that the next big thing has got to sound really modern and new, but to get something that sounds fresh, it can just be three kids with guitars and not a lot else. There's enough username-and-password music already, know what I mean? I hope it does happen again, though."
Turner continued: "Because we’ll never get that initial naivety back. You can't, like, fake that thing, like what's on the first record. It's just a time and a place… but yeah, I'd love for a band to come through and turn the charts upside down for a couple of weeks."
