Arctic Monkeys release three-song EP

Arctic Monkeys released an EP called Leave Before The Lights Come On on Tuesday, October 24th. The disc includes two brand new songs, including the title track and "Put Your Dukes Up, John," as well as a cover of "Baby I'm Yours" by R&B performer and composer Van McCoy. The EP follows up the British band's debut album, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, which was released earlier this year to critical acclaim in the U.S. and near-hysteria in the U.K. Arctic Monkeys are nominated for four Q Awards, including Best Album, Best Live Act, Best Track and Best New Act. The awards will be presented on October 30th in London. Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, walked away with England's prestigious Mercury Music Prize earlier this year. It was also the fastest-selling debut album in U.K. music history. Arctic Monkeys are currently at work on their second full-length effort. Src: Therockradio.com
