Arctic Monkeys "occasionally" composed a single

Apr 04, 2011
Arctic Monkeys' frontman Alex Turner spoke about the single Don't Look Down 'Cause I've Moved Your Chair from the band's upcoming album Suck It And See. According to his words, the idea about this song has come to him "occasionally" during the work on the soundtrack for Submarine movie.

"The title was someone said. In fact, I said it to somebody whose chair I moved and I didn't want them to hurt themselves. This was while we were in the studio doing the Submarine recording and James Ford, producer, said: "Oh, that sounds like it could be like a '60s garage Nuggets tune". That is how it happened", claimed he.

Based on the book by Joe Dunthorne, Submarine movie tells the story about 15-years boy who is trying to accomplish two aims – lose virginity and prevent his parents from divorce.

The film was directed by Richard Ayoade (famous for his role in The IT Crowd TV-series). Ayoade also shot music videos for Arctic Monkeys' songs Fluorescent Adolescent, Crying Lightning and Cornerstone.

Earlier Arctic Monkeys revealed that Suck It And See would feature a duo – or maybe even several duos – with Queens Of The Stone Age singer Josh Homme.

Josh Homme produced Arctic Monkeys' previous album Humbug that hit the stores in 2009.

Alex Turner also promised that the sound of Suck It And See would be different from the band's previous records.
