Arctic Monkeys

During a recent live-in-studio session for the BBC, the Arctic Monkeys busted out a snarkily affectionate cover of “Katy On A Mission,” the ridiculously catchy dubstep-pop hit from fellow Brit Katy B. The Monkeys didn’t try to add any bass-drops to their version; instead, they played it like a vintage garage-rock tune, swiping the riff from Johnny Kidd & The Pirates’ “Shakin’ All Over” in the process. Listen to the Monkeys’ cover and watch the Katy B video below.

The Monkeys’ Suck It And See is out now on Domino. Also, Katy’s album On A Mission is out on Columbia and well worth a listen.
