NEWS08.09.2009 Arctic Monkeys were struck by lightning Arctic Monkeys revealed that their bus was struck by lightning during the band's tour in Germany this summer. It happened just a few days after their new single Crying Lightning was released. «We got struck by lightning near Hanover in the bus, and the bus broke down. We had a nightmare journey getting out here, but we've forgotten about it now», said the singer Alex Turner.
Crying Lightning became the first single from the band’s new album Humbug, which hit the stores in August. Alex Turner claimed that he enjoyed the brake between this record and Arctic Monkeys’ previous album Favourite Worst Nightmare, released in 2007. «It was just good to have a break – not only for us but to let everyone breathe a bit. I think we needed to calculate this album a bit more, take a bit more time with it», said he.
