ARCTIC MONKEYS DODGE DRUGS

British indie sensations ARCTIC MONKEYS refuse to immerse themselves in the drugs which attract so many breakthrough acts, because they want to focus on their musicianship.

Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys at the The Nationwide Mercury Prize held at Grosvenor House. London, England - 05.06.09

The I BET YOU LOOK GOOD ON THE DANCEFLOOR hitmakers landed the fastest selling debut album in UK chart history with 2005's WHATEVER PEOPLE SAY I AM, THAT'S WHAT I'M NOT.

And they are looking to build on their impressive start with a host of other classic releases - and drugs would only hamper their quest for chart domination.

Frontman ALEX TURNER says, "We've learned a lot of musicians, but we haven't started taking cocaine or 'owt like that."
