The Best Arctic Monkeys Wallpapers

Arctic Monkeys were formed in 2002 in High Green, a suburb of Sheffield and became today one of the U.K.’s biggest bands of the new millennium. They have incorporate the sounds from bands like Franz Ferdinand, The Clash, The Strokes and The Libertines into a new sound of their own, like a danceable indie-rock type.

Arctic Monkeys are considered as one of the first group to come to public attention via the Internet (through fan-based sites). It marked a change in the way in which new bands are promoted.

The band’s debut album is the fastest-selling debut album in British music history. Arctic Monkeys have won seven Brit Awards and have twice been nominated for Grammy Awards. The band also won the Mercury Prize in 2006 for their debut album, in addition to receiving nominations in 2007 and 2013.
