  • @juanyboy look for the song "very ape" by Nirvana ;)

  • i reckon this song would sound really good with an orchestra backing (Y)

  • @mattdsk8 this band rocks just wait 5 or 10 years for S&AM lmao

  • By far the best band in the world

  • Love them so much <33333333 When are they going to tour in the U.S.???

  • @jjuarezluvsbeatles They toured back in like and around October...

  • @ juarex they come back in april

  • Just amazing :)

    Creative and catchy.

  • One of my favourite songs from Humbug... The beat is totally amazing. The lighting on these transmitions look great!

  • great song!!!!!!!

  • ShIeLD ur eyes

  • I'm seeing them in December!

  • yeaaaah

  • bits off this remind me of a song by nirvana very ape on the album in utero

  • mardy monkeys se nota que no sabes nada de esto , AGUANTE HUMBUG !

  • what a fuckin album

  • i LOVE this to much, i love this band to much! aw amazing!

    i cant wait to see them in november! <3

  • wherw are they playin? and would it be sold out dya think?

  • Touring UK november they made more tickets for venues check them out there maybe some psare not sure ...

  • Went to the concert last night in Toronto, best night of my life!

  • Humbug isa masterpiece mate:)

    they dedicate alot to this album

  • & shit, dudes, it's perfect as usual.

  • first song I heard from the album. Still love it.

  • calm down..its just a song no need to get emotional and say i should hang myself...

  • 2nd half of the song is like the doors

  • i like cornerstone.

    this vid is a bit like reptilia by strokes.

  • My favourite of the new albulm...

    Most the songs on humbug are good...

    The Jewellers Hands fucking sucks.....and the Fire and the thud is passable.

  • I LOVE fire and the thud, lol.

  • Does anyone think he looks a lot like Julian Casablancas now since he has no guitar?

    I think it's the way he is holding the mic. I really like this song though !

  • Most influenced tune on the album still worth a listen in places.

  • Hmm you know..., read it several times in comments ... personally I love it, but everybody may have his own opinion, my fav stays still "Secret doors" ...

  • I got that with Dangerous Animal.

  • Even if still very britisch, you can really notice the US rock inluence of their new album HUMBUG ,especially on this song tainted by blues and folk..I really dont understand people saying this is the worst song of the album..

  • not feeling it. different though. hm

  • Comment removed

  • LIZARDTURNER?

    maybe with other stile xD

  • I realy love their new style!

  • he reminds me off jim morrison when hes not playing a guitar...

  • I want alex to sing with guitar..

  • one of the stand out tracks on humbug.

  • 2:12 in poi..da brividi!

  • Biggest fan from the monkeys! Every single song is awesome from the previous albuns! But The HUMBUG album is Super awesome, Josh Homme should produce more songs for the monkeys!

  • i think the arctic monkeys should produce their own songs.

  • Quien esta tocando la guitarra que debería estar haciendo alex?

  • muito bom

  • so yeah i totally agree stutaggart, this song has the biggest QOTSA feel, and then the solo from crying lightning

  • you can just feel Josh Homme's presence in the solo of this song...never thought arctic monkeys would be able to pull off a stoner rock sound...definately one of the best songs of humbug

  • When I heard that Josh Homme was producing the album, I thought it was gonna sound like QOTSA, but heard it an didn't think it did...BUT IT DOES...big time. Am I right?

  • best one from Humbug!

  • not trying to be insulting, this isn't bad. But this is this is a lot like the strokes, even down to alexs new haircut and no guitar.

  • I'm sad to admit I'm kind of disappointed with their new songs. I was looking forward to this new album. :(

  • play the fucking guitar alex

  • nice!

  • Fuck you.

  • what are you talking about ?

  • niiiiiiiiice! =D

  • eeh, donde estan los arctic mokeys?

  • the best one from their new album

  • haha i was just about to say the same

  • what a gem. gorgeous might be the right word. Hail Monkeys.

  • i have the album you penises

  • i like this song (:

  • i want this new album soooooooooo bad

  • Oni sa niesamowici. a zwłaszcza Alex <3 Love ...

  • i just noticed thats a fucking fender starcaster jaimies playing

  • yep, i was kinda surprised as well. reminds me of jonny greenwood ;)

  • Not in this one. That's his Gibson box. But he's been playing a Starcaster. Expensive if you can find one.

  • starcaster? oh not my taste dude

  • No it's not..it's a Gibson ES-335. He plays a Starcaster for Crying Lightning though

  • finally bassist take a fender..

  • They'll become a KING in the future.

  • They already our kings, did you not ever hear of WPSIATWIN

  • good song cant wait for the Album

  • I like that the arctic monkeys are playing what they want to play and not just making songs to sell albums.

  • such a vague statement.

  • What's so vague?

  • If you like that in a band. You could apply that to almost any band. Its just.. a bleh comment. I shouldn't of even put my opinion on it since its such a pitty matter..

    If you can identify that element you mention.. well; please elaborate!

  • I'm sorry I have to make you waste a comment on me o' great one

    I'm not saying that's the only thing I like about them, and you couldn't say that for a lot of bands like nickleback, disturbed, and most of anything you hear on Mtv.

    Anyway I was just thinking instead of cranking out what everyone else is used to they go for the sound they like, not every comment has to be self explanatory or a fucking elaboration ya know.

  • yer but... they are. otherwise they wouldn't release em would they? they're trying to make a living by music arent they. the management mite be the commercial ones, but the monkeys still need it to sell

  • I wasn't really talking about that, I was talking about how they aren't sticking to their same sound to please the public, or just cranking out songs for money alone.

  • there not sticking to the same sound dude

    well if they are its a style dude

  • I said "they aren't sticking to their same sound"...dude.

  • blame it on the drugs

  • Alex es precioso.....y la musica de su grupo alucinante

  • Sounds like Very Ape by Nirvana.

  • holy shit so much a law suit could occur

  • not a chance,it sounds a bit like it but not a chance it would go to court or a bit!

  • hmm yea but i think this is weird because josh hommes produced this who is freinds with dave groll drummer for nirvana so hmm wonder if he said they can use this riff?

  • i wanted to write exactly the same thing

  • a lot more of a darker sound.

  • just good.

  • I love them ... very weird thiese songs ... <3

  • great music with great video.. 5 rating!!

  • Alex with guitar is amazing, but without is sexy too xD He absolutely doesn't know what to do with himself xD it's so funny...

    /sorry for my english xd/

  • Who is this guay at 2:46? The fifth monkey?

  • They have a touring keyboard player now who also plays guitar.

  • Alot of ppl not liking the new stuff from the AM boys..... but im f'in loving it ... this is what they were heading for (soundwise) all along !!

    Well done boys, new album sounds amazing...

  • Can't wait for humbug now!

    The lyrics in this are immense!

  • amazing song, humbug is their best album to date.

  • Comment removed

  • this is fukin good, i love the new sound its so gooooooooooooood!!!!!!!!!!

  • i heard it on opener festival in poland and it was amazing !!

  • love this song! :D

    "I was biting the time zone,

    And we embellish the banks of our bloodstreams,

    And threw caution to the colourful "

  • Fuck, this is catchy!

  • WEHEY!

    Matt's drum stick at the end XD haha

    fucking legends

    love the darker edge of this album :D

  • Alex, wheres your guitar??????

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

  • great song!

  • I agree with jmc895

    Loved it., can't wait to get the new album...

  • Alex Turner is god

    Some people just can't seem to realise that change is the key to a great band. Why would you want it to sound like thier old stuff of which is excellent but this is musically and lyrically better

  • I'm stickin' with the older stuff.

  • WHERE'S PRETTY VISITORS!? :(

    best song of humbug

  • I love their new sound. Probably better than the sound from their previous albums.

  • Can't understand why a people hate it, just because they have tried a new style some people can't wait to throttle it. Obviously if they kept to the same style as in previous albums it would all get abit boring.

  • i'd never download it illegally :P

  • i feel like these guys are gonna just pump out an album every year no matter what. which is a good thing for most new bands to do unless ur name is bloc party

  • I could not understand what you worte in reference to Bloc Party

  • Why don't they put Secret Door up?? That's my favorite.

  • shit.

  • so's your face :)

  • not too bad but without alex playing the guitar, it doesn´t really sound like the Monkeys i´m used to....

  • humburg already released?

  • no its just that we've downloaded it illegally you should do it too!

  • yes

    i bet "humburg" is already out somewhere

    HUMBUG on the other hand hasn't been released. yet

  • LOL humburg.... it (unsurprisingly) leaked already because the cds were already manufactured! its on tpb. im the only person that likes the album...? cant be

  • IT'S AMAZING. most of the the songs are on youtube and i read somewhere that they've leaked already on the torrents sites but seriously the band's not gonna have any trouble selling albums. i hate comparing each album to the next so im not going to lol-i love the new sound, the original sound is still there of course so i dont know why some people are bitching. there really is no other band that has the same sound as they do now and i love that originality

  • This is my favourite song from Humbug

  • No matter what they put out, it's going to be impossible to please everyone. I'm going to wait to judge the whole album instead of one or two songs

  • The whole album lacks that certain energy that we've come to expect, It's not really a step back for the Monkeys, but they arent exactly moving forward. Lyrically, they are still at the top of their game, they just dont seem to have put them to music as well as they used to.

    Look up some of their b-sides...they are fantastic

  • thats so anoying man whys he not playin guitar in lyk half the songs , jamies good dont get me wrong but its no arctic monkeys with just one playin

  • They've a new member for their live performances who provides vocals, plus additional guitar and keyboard, which means it's more manageable for Alex.

  • I prefer Alex with a guitar in his arms.

    not just the sounds coming from some guy standing in the back.

  • thatd be cool if this was there new stage design

  • why alex dont play the guitar ?

    but great song :)

  • there no changes like in there old ones

  • your penis is gay

  • It's good.

  • they never let me down.

  • Is it me or is the "I wish they didnt sound different" argument starting to get old? To me it is, cos i like all the songs i've heard.

    My opinion^ I get that people dont like the new sound, so dont kell me for saying i like them.

  • take away two chords and you have a 15 second song. I wish they put Terror Pocket on Humbug instead of this.

  • Alot of songs are based on two chords though.

  • Are they ever going to release songs like Sandtrap and Put Me In Your Terror Pocket???

  • kinda reminds me of the doors

    abit

  • why are people so obsessed with wanting band to do something 'like' their old stuff...does anyone else think it would get a bit boring?

    i love the newer stuff because its different

  • i agree. "who wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up, blinded by nostalgia?"

    i sure don`t. i love the fact that new songs are different.

  • thank you

  • This and Dance Little Liar are my favourite songs on the new album

    I'd have soon rather em have had this as the video for crying lightning, cause that video is bloody awful

  • i wonder if this is how they will play at their gigs

  • Nah they do the songs but with a more original Monkeys style on it mate

  • i must say I like their older music

  • the horrors.

  • I already have this album and it is sick! It will not have much commercial success as it takes a few listens to really get into but after "Crying Lightning" it is exactly what I was expecting. After watching them rehearse in their video tour diaries for months I am so glad to finally hear the finished product!

  • ok this is cool

  • gunna be honest here coz im not a biased monkeys fan, personally i aint impressed, aint got shit on any old tracks!

  • agreed. theres no 'when the sun goes down' or 'dancefloor'. too bad.

  • This song's genius. I like this better than Crying Lightning but I prefer Secret Door. Keep playing this music, it's great.
