The Last Shadow Puppets - The Age Of The Understatement


When ARCTIC MONKEYS frontman Alex Turner joined forces with his friend, THE RASCALS Miles Kane to form THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS in 2007 they blew the music world away. Epic Ennio Morricone soundtracks met garage rock and sixties baroque pop, with two magnetic frontmen to lead the charge. THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS entered the "Way Out West" stage a week ago, it’s was one of the most vital rock acts playing live this summer.

THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS, are an English band consisting of Alex Turner (ARCTIC MONKEYS), Miles Kane (THE RASCALS), James Ford (SIMIAN), and Zach Dawes (MINI MANSIONS). The band released their debut album The Age Of The Understatement in 2008. Following a lengthy hiatus, they returned with their album Everything You've Come To Expect in 2016.




Today's tune "The Age of the Understatement" is the first single released by THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS. It was released on 14 April 2008 in the United Kingdom on Domino Records. The song is the title track from the band's debut album "The Age of the Understatement".

The Video was Directed by director Romain Gavras, their debut video is as big as Mother Russia, following our intrepid heroes' adventures in Moscow and includes ice skating, an Orthodox priest, Soviet tanks and a chorus of Russian Soldiers.
