History of the Arctic Monkeys
Their story began when rehearsing at Yellow Arch Studios in Neepsend, they played their first ever gig on 13 June 2003 at The Grapes in Sheffield city-centre. After a few performances in 2003 the band began to record demos at 2fly studios in Sheffield. 17 songs were demoed in all and the collection, now known as 'Under the Boardwalk'.
Today the Arctic Monkey's are known worldwide...
Arctic Monkeys are an English indie rock band. Currently the bands members include Alex Turner (lead vocals, Lead/rhythm guitar), Jamie Cook (rhythm/lead guitar), Nick O'Malley (bass guitar, backing vocals) and Matt Helders (drums, percussion, backing vocals).
The band have released four studio albums: Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006), Favourite Worst Nightmare (2007), Humbug (2009) and Suck It and See (2011), as well as one live album At the Apollo (2008).
Arctic Monkeys are known for being one of the first acts to become known to the public through the Internet, 'with commentators suggesting they represented the possibility of a change in the way in which new bands are promoted and marketed'.
Below are some songs and examples of the band:
All Time Low
Being one of my favourite ever bands, I wanted to look at 'All Time Low' in some detail. I love their uncomplicated style, the personality that comes across in their performances, but most of all I love their sound. Their music is definitely classed as alternative rock as the below clip will show you...
In this analysis I focused less on the actual
music and history of the band and more on
the style they put alongside their music. I looked
more at the album covers and pictures of them.
Here the band are presented as one item and are unified. The black backdrop presents this idea of drama, but also makes the piece look more elegant and together. The band members style is similar and the picture is a low angle shot creating a sense of dominence.
