...according to our Ant on 29 November 2007.

Ant here with the new one from the Arctic Monkeys. I bet there's a whole load of you salivating at the thought. The first thing that struck me about 'Teddy Picker' is the pristine production. I bet it cost a few quid. This lot ain't my bag but I'd rather listen to this on the radio than that whimpering UK's answer to Mariah Carey girl off of X Factor. Mingus has piped up and said that this is well 60's. He's got a fair point. It's like a tougher version of The Coral. I can really imagine Bad Woman appearing in a David Lynch movie. You really can't pin these guys down. Although they obviously have their sound they don't milk it to death and keep churning out tracks that sound the same. You get a sense that they haven't become lazy and that a hunger and sense of enjoyment in what they're doing is intact. Interestingly the titles of the second 2 tracks on the CD have been scribbled out and replaced with "The Death Ramps" and "Nettles".

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Following the fastest–selling debut in British chart history, ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’ is a breakneck technicolour journey through screwball punk and guitar-fuelled dancefloor heroics. ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’s third single ‘Teddy Picker’ shows yet again the confidence of Alex Turner’s usual wit and depicts the modern day media system with its reality TV and B-list celebrities on the cover of the magazines. The chronicle of a shallow world supported by a rock bass based melody is a real crowd pleaser. ‘Teddy Picker’ is available on heavyweight 7” and 10” as well as CD single and digital formats. The B-sides package is very attractive: three exclusive tracks including two new tracks and a cover version, which by itself will delight the fans and encourage sales.
