Arctic Monkeys have released a new song called “2013”, the b-side to the vinyl release of new single “Do I Wanna Know?” It’s a track that hears Alex Turner reference modern 2013 things such as instagram, twitter, as well as apple. It’s an outtake from their AM album sessions, and you can definitely sense that they were having a bit of fun with this, at least lyrically.
Musically it’s continues the venture and expansion of the sound that they’ve been treading towards with this release. It definitely sounds like something that would be well suited during a long drive at night with the windows down during a hot desert like day. It’s a catch fun song, and I’m digging it.
Check it below, and buy the “Do I Wanna Know” single from Domino to get “2013” on vinyl.
