UK LP pressing. Highly-anticipated 2008 debut album from The Last Shadow Puppets, aka Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) and Miles Kane (The Rascals) and hands down proof that Turner and Kane are two of the most exciting young songwriters on the planet. The album is a result of their mutual respect of musicians such as Scott Walker, David Axelrod and early Bowie. The album was recorded at Black Box studios in France during the summer of 2007, with producer and drummer James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Klaxons, Simian Mobile Disco). The band then approached Owen Pallett (Arcade Fire, Bloc Party, Beirut) to arrange and conduct the orchestration of the tracks, which were recorded by the 22-piece London Metropolitan Orchestra in London over Christmas. 12 tracks. Domino.

The Last Shadow Puppets are Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) and Miles Kane (The Rascals). The pair were so inspired by listening to the likes of Scott Walker, early Bowie, and David Axelrod, that they recorded this album of twelve full-blooded songs, bold and brassy, full of drama, wit, and melody. The orchestration of the tracks was recorded by the 22-piece London Metropolitan Orchestra. Look for this duo on select US dates in September with full band and a large string section.
