It was only when uploading Ooh, She Said by The Wonder Stuff that I remembered about this hit single from the Britpop era:- mp3 : Longpigs - She Said This lot formed in Sheffield in 1993, but didn't really enjoy any mainstream success until 1996 when just about any four-piece that was guitar-orientated and hailed from Great Britain got into the charts as record labels and radio [...]
On Tuesday, I was complaining that the Japanese release of the new Arctic Monkeys' album, Humbug, got a cover of the Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' classic song, "Red Right Hand." Even though terribly... Continue reading "Video: Arctic Monkeys, "Red Right Hand"" >
The makeover of the Arctic Monkeys, from snotty youth to serious musicians, continues with this live video of the band covering Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' "Red Right Hand," during their recent web transmission. Here Cave's loungy, mysticism gets a shot of adrenaline, thanks to a perked up tempo and a savage, rumbling guitar riff. Surprisingly, the Monkey's Alex Turner seems almost natural delivering Cave's line, "He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a guru." Maybe all that time spent in the desert with Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme has made [...]

Since I am a big, big fan, check out "Red Right Hand" (and some tourdates) inside. Their new album, Humbug , is due on the 25th. [...]

For someone as musical as Jimmy Fallon, it's surprising he doesn't seem moved one way or another by his (fairly awesome) musical bookings. The most you get out of the guy when he walks over to congratulate his guests is usually a "Hey nice job, buddy!" even if they just laid out something great . If this performance of Humbug standout " Crying Lightning " was for the benefit of Dave or Conan we likely would've seen a more effusive host-band interaction, but no matter: for a guy that's previously traded [...]

They appeared at the washed-out All Points West festival on Friday (July 31) and indulged in a live webcast to promote the record last week. Humbug is due for release on August 24 on Domino. The boys have been covering Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' "Red Right Hand" for a while now, and they delivered a version of the song in the webcast. Singer Alex Turner's voice and the jaunty arrangement certainly takes the track [...]
