Yesterday (October 18), Arctic Monkeys shared their latest single ‘I Ain’t Quite Where I Think I Am’. The song follows on from their recent single ‘Body Paint’ and first album taster ‘There’d Better Be A Mirrorball’.

The new track, which was first premiered live by the band in Switzerland back in August, was accompanied by an official video that was filmed during AM’s recent King’s Theatre show in Brooklyn, New York.
