It always amazes me how young they were and how early in their career this was! They headlined the biggest festival in the UK and they were like 21 years old and had only released their debut album a year or so prior! Ridiculous

I worked as a camera man on their 2006 tour and the guitarist cookie hated having a camera pointed at him. As you say he was headlining the biggest shows going and was still a shy kid really.

@@Joelyne37 younger bands have headlined the Pyramid stage. I'm not saying anything bad about the Arctic monkeys, I loved them when they came out but they weren't breaking new ground.

By this point Alex was 21 I believe and by this point he had written 2 record breaking albums. Such a talented band.

Ah, thank you so much guys, it makes me so so happy that you liked them as much as I do. I look forward to you seeing more! What is most astonishing to me is that they are like 22 in this video and they picked up their instruments at 15 - 16. They are the main act Glastonbury here. Doesn't get bigger. Unbelievable. Matt Helders started playing drums just because there was no other instruments left and my goodness gracious are we glad he did. He is now 35 ish and struggeling to play these songs he has said, so fast. They have also developed their style quite a lot from these first albums and just released a single that sounds very different, but it's all brilliant. Yes, do listen to the recordings, it's a thing of beauty! If I only had money to make you react to their first album, I would do so on a heartbeat. Listen to the lyrics on their songs btw. Truly brilliant most of it. I think I asked you of it was OK with two songs somewhere, or I am really sorry if I didn't, it was just nice to give you a little bit of an insight, they are not just all anthrax or happy punk.. Hehe. Thanks guys ❤️

Age is just a number lads...ive just turned 50 and love Arctic monkeys...been to see them numerous times...great band....their 1st album is up there with the best...and they were only kids when they wrote it.

You guys gonna go nuts after listening more stuff from them

I spent half a year in Scotland when this debut was just going through the roof. It was a great time for high adrenaline guitar music (and a bad time for my liver 😄) Arctic Monkeys have mellowed out pretty much on their latest albums. This was great live footage. Thanks guys and Helene. BTW the spelling on the album really is "Brianstorm" 🤷‍♂️

Brianstorm is about a man they met called Brian who had a tie on over his t shirt

They are so good live. I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor is well worth a listen next as its their first single. You could then take a few from each of their albums...its all good stuff. Enjoy!

It’s sincerely up there as one of the best debut albums by any band.

This is a heavily evolved band today. Every album stands up. All are different. Saw these guys in Central Park with my wife’s little sister many years ago. It was her first show. They began with Brianstorm and I never experienced such a crowd surge. It was nuts!

This is from their headline slot at Glastonbury. About 110k people for the main stage usually.

i love seeing people react to this specific live show, everyone loves it

Such a great live performance!

About somebody named Brian. It’s not a typo 😂

Style,music and beautiful looking ladies from the 60's...when I was born are all making a comeback? Great content guys.

this band is so good!!

Their discography is extremely diverse. Can’t recommend it enough.

The music video for "When the sun goes down" was filmed at park hill flats in Sheffield, just behind the train station. Arctic monkeys came from Parsons cross area that's a few miles away from the city centre. Words like "Mardy bum" is what a mother from Yorkshire would say to her sulking child.The closest "English" word to "Mardy" would be "Sulking", and "Owt" is "Anything" and "Summat" is "Something". Summat and Owt have old English roots while Mardy is of old Norse origin

I saw them in 2006 at a tiny little venue in Portsmouth before they'd released anything officially. Everything available was on bootleg CDs. Their first single went straight in at number 1 too. That is a great song btw. I Bet you Look Good On The Dancefloor was it and it's incredible. Unfortunately they're disappeared up their own arses of late. Look out for their lyrics though. Especially the first album. First class storytelling from a kids perspective. They are from Sheffield in the north of England too so have strong accents and use local dialect.

I feel like people slightly mis-represent the 'internet famous' thing, like I think it was more that they played a lot of live venues, gave out CDs and people put it up on limewire etc and had a website where you could download their music. Word spread pretty quick but they also good radio play too. It wasn't like they were vlogging and uploading on youtube

The "backing song" is Matador, it's a single of them, it's really good too

The backing track at the beginning of the video is actually one of their singles. It's called "Matador"

Walking onto their song Matador with the "Devil's notes" - the flatted fifth. Very effective to walk on stage too

So fkn good!🤘❤🤟

Arctic Monkeys one of the favorite band of Louis Tomlinson same goes with Green Day band. But his most favorite is OASIS band.

My favourite band after Oasis. They have developed their sound quite well, but I love the older stuff the most.

The opening track playing is actually one of their B sides, sorry forget the name tho.

So much discography. Enjoy. Try Leave before the lights come on..

Their first album is their best, it is a masterpiece! Brianstorm is the best of the second album too

Guy on the bottom is the exact mixture of stephen wonderboy and mark goldbridge
