Now what is anyone to expect from the solo ventures of the charismatic Arctic Monkeys and Last Shadow Puppets frontman? Possibly not this EP of songs writen for the film 'Submarine' (which I am yet to see, as apparently it is too obscure for Thanet cinemas). The six songs can only really be described as, well, nice. Listening to the tracks it is very easy to forget that this is the guy who wrote 'Brianstorm'. All subdued, acousic songs, with lyrics that will tangle you up if you think about them too hard, it is an achievement that the songs all stand alone from the film. An eyes-half-closed kind of sound, pretentious in the best possible way; if the new Arctic Monkeys album is as drippingly delicious as this EP, they have nothing to worry about.

Listen to the whole thing from beginning to end
Key Lyric:
'Tell me how I'm gonna put you off/When you're a matter of urgency'
