Monkeys want Homme again
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 26 February 2010
Arctic Monkey’s drummer Matt Helders has said that the band hope to work with Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Josh Homme again in the future. Homme, as you probably already know, produced the band’s third album, ‘Humbug’, which was released last year.
Speaking at the NME Awards, after picking up the Best Live Band trophy, Helders told BBC 6music: “I don’t know [if we’ll work with him again]. He might be a repeat offender. He promised he’d call, but he’s a busy man. We had a great time. We’d love to work with him again in some capacity. It depends. When we’re ready to record again, he might be as well, but you know what he’s like, he’s a very busy man and in demand”.
He also revealed that the band won’t be playing Glastonbury this year, saying: “We wouldn’t want to blow it. We’d rather come back after we’ve done a new album and do it properly”.
