The Last Shadow Puppets – Age of Understatement

UK LP pressing. Highly-anticipated 2008 debut album from The Last Shadow Puppets, aka Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) and Miles Kane (The Rascals) and hands down proof that Turner and Kane are two of the most exciting young songwriters on the planet. The album is a result of their mutual respect of musicians such as Scott Walker, David Axelrod and early Bowie. The album was recorded at Black Box studios in France during the summer of 2007, with producer and drummer James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Klaxons, Simian Mobile Disco). The band then approached Owen Pallett (Arcade Fire, Bloc Party, Beirut) to arrange and conduct the orchestration of the tracks, which were recorded by the 22-piece London Metropolitan Orchestra in London over Christmas. 12 tracks.
