Arctic Monkeys in NME magazine...

[arctic]

The band are appearing in a studio interview in this weeks *cough* N *cough* M *cough* E (plug over) and it appears the album is actually more or less finished.

According to the magazine:

<i>In a world exclusive, we take a special trip to New York City and spend 24 hours locked-up in the studio with Arctic Monkeys to witness the making of their third album. </i>

Nice, but check out the image (Tom Oxley), since when did Arctic Monkeys have a hippie (far right) and an old man in the band (far left). Weird.

Hopefully the album will be out before the end of the year (yikes!).

Yeaaaahhhhh, not happy with Jamie's new look. I do remember his New Years res was to grow a beard but how long is he gonna keep it?

I hope this is a "I'm not shaving or cutting my hair until the album is finished/the album comes out!" sort of thing....(fingers crossed)
