News:  Arctic Monkeys

Listen To New Arctic Monkeys B-Side ‘You & I’

By Fernando Scoczynski Filho

The Death Ramps, AKA Arctic Monkeys, have doubled their amount of recorded material recently. That’s to say, they went from  a couple of songs to four. Having released b-side Little Illusion Machine last year, the group are utilizing the pseudonym for another release, entitled You & I.

Coming as the b-side to Black Treacle, You & I features The Death Ramps accompanied by former Pulp/Longpips member Richard Hawley. It also happens to sound quite a bit like Queens of the Stone Age. Listen below:
