Arctic Monkeys Frontman Starts Side Project.

Alex Turner has teamed up with Miles Kane of the Rascals to form the band The Last Shadow Puppets. Arctic Monkeys need to keep putting together material and continue their reign as the best current U.K. band. I know side projects diversify and help the growth of a musician but it can also create problems and destroy a band. Stick with the Arctic Monkeys Alex, and see how many brilliant albums you can put together. Don't pull a Damon Albarn on me this early. Alex Turner does sound pretty damn good though, check out this video from one of their New York shows.

Have to agree with you, no matter how good this new colaboration is,
if it delays the Arctic Monkeys progression as a band and their next release, then that would indeed be tragic.

It's natural to expect that a major singer/songwriting talent like Alex is eventually going to want to explore what else is out there musically for him to do.
