Arctic Monkeys – Crying Lightning EP

August 16, 2009 | by Patrick

The Arctic Monkey’s Crying Lightning EP is out tomorrow in the UK but can be downloaded now from the Arctic Monkeys’ website for £0.79 (I’ll let you work out the conversion on your own). The EP contains a track that didn’t make it to the album as well as a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds cover. “I Haven’t Got My Strange” is a very short track at 1:30, there’s no doubt that the track would have felt out of place on Humbug and “Red Right Hand” is a pepped up version of the Nick Caves original. I must say that I almost prefer the remake to the original.
