Hear Arctic Monkeys' first ever NME interview - Part 1 (Series 1, Ep1)

Welcome to the very first episode of the series! In the first of their two-parter covering the emergence of Arctic Monkeys, your hosts Rick and Sarah unveil a never-before-heard interview with the Sheffield band, recorded when they were still unsigned way back in April 2005. Alex Turner and Matt Helders explain how the band formed and discuss the prospect of impending fame, along with talking us through their early musical influences. The episode also sees Rick and Sarah reminisce about what it was like to be down the front and backstage at the some of the Arctics’ early gigs and explain how a game of Fifa on the tourbus ended up driving a wedge between Rick and the band.
