gotta be almost certainties haven't they? high up on Other i'd have thought, or possibly even Pyramid

[Sketchead]

Sub the Other.

probably seems the best fit, although i've also currently got like ten other acts who'd also fit that spot as well so i hesitated in saying it :P

[Hugh Jass]

Don't think they'd play Other. Third or fourth on the Pyramid or JP Headliner.

Would love to see them though.

[Hugh Jass]

Will they be that much more popular than last time? Remember them headlining the tent at Leeds last year, that's about the same as the JP I'd say.

[RossTC]

Would love them to be there, brilliant in there individual right and as LSP the two times i saw them off the first album were superb.

With Alex turner's rise in popularity/confidence/dickheadedNesssince the first album could they not headline other stage?

possibly, although i don't think they really have the tunes to pull it off (could change soon though i guess). hard to say when an act like them has been away for so long, but the new album will undoubtedly be successful regardless of the quality

would be pretty packed (if only for Turner's presence), although stick em against some big headliners elsewhere and i guess it wouldn't be too much of a problem

I definitely think a Pyramid slot could happen. Depends what direction they go on for this album, I could definitely see them putting a more upbeat one which would go down very well there. 

[TomViolence]

The chances of them playing AM/Miles' solo material are very very slim IMO... there's just no need for them to.

If the album does well I could see them subbing Other/high on Pyramid. I don't think I could face fighting for a good spot in the JP so hopefully that doesn't happen (assuming they do actually get booked for next year).

[kaytee...]

News of this today got me listening to the first record for the first time in so long. Brought back memories of seeing them at Manchester Apollo - 7 years ago! Where the hell has that time gone?! 

I can't even imagine what their new stuff would sound like though. They've both changed so much musically since then.

Buzzing!!

Agree, not much of a chance to play other songs and if they did, would likely to be the slower more acoustic songs.

[Hugh Jass]

The Shadow Puppets material should be strong enough for them not to have to fall back on AM stuff. Would be a bit of a cop out if they dropped BYLGODF.

come their next album/tour it'll surprise me if even Arctics are playing that song live anymore

[TomViolence]

The biggest cop out is Floorfiller not continuing the use of that ridiculously long acronym

not gonna lie - i typed it out and then went back on it. it bothered me that the 'I' and 'T' were missing, but the addition of those two letters just made it all too much

Thank fuck for that!

[kingcrawler]

Yeah there's no chance of them playing Miles' solo stuff. Don't see why they'd include Arctic Monkeys songs either when they'll have two albums to choose from and they didn't play any the first time round.

I saw them when they toured previously and they were excellent, cant wait for the new album and I hope they play the festival. As has been said, not a chance they'll do theyre own work, as there is simply no need.

FWIW I rate Miles Kane's solo stuff. Cool guy.

How about: They're bit like if Noel asked the middle Gallagher brother to record an album with him?

Putting something like this out without an actual song... the teases! But yeah very exciting and hopefully they'll play.

[Callum_96]

Desperate for them to play next year and am really interested to see what direction they go with this album.

Why does Super Hans keep flashing up in that video?
