Electricity’ is a gritty ballad dedicated to the pursuit of sexual satisfaction. The track does not so much wink ‘I bet that you look good on the dance floor’, as growl, ‘I bet that you look good in my bed’. Whilst some hard-core Monkeys fans may be disappointed with this new and edgy sound, ‘Electricity’ is a spark of genius. This is the Arctic Monkeys grown into The Arctic Gorillas; gone are the cheeky faux-punk drum fillers of old, instead we are dragged alongside a truly grimy riff you can beat your chest in time.
