'Brianstorm' (often mistaken as 'Brainstorm') is a song by the English indie rock band Arctic Monkeys. It is the opening track on their second album, Favourite Worst Nightmare. The song was released as the first single from the album on 2 April 2007, debuting at number 21 in the UK Singles Chart via downloads alone.^[2] The single was released in physical formats on 16 April, the week before the release of the album, and charted at number two on the UK Singles Chart behind Beyoncé and Shakira's 'Beautiful Liar'. In Scotland, the song became the band's fourth consecutive number-one single on the Scottish Singles Chart. 'Brianstorm' is one of the band's most successful singles worldwide, reaching number four in Denmark and the Netherlands, number seven in Ireland, and number 10 in Spain.

The song was noticeably louder and heavier than previous efforts, marking the band's evolved sound. The song prominently features 'thundering drums' and surf-rock tremolo guitars.^[3] The song is also well known for its intricate and rapid drum track, which was voted the tenth best drum track of the millennium on MusicRadar.^[4]

'Brianstorm' came in at number 62 on MTV Asia's list of Top 100 Hits of 2007.^[5] It was also used on The Colbert Report, The Daily Show and Late Night with Conan O'Brien during the final weeks of the 07–08 Writers Guild strike, in which it is played during a showdown between the three.

Background and recording[edit]

Prior to the single, there had been a great deal of media speculation questioning the band's ability to emulate their successes of 2006 and their debut album.^[6] The single marks a noticeable change in band's logo and cover art, with the 'frenetic' cover art seeming to mirror the nature of the track. The track has no chorus, but features an 'ascending guitar duel which sounds like a cross between 'Telstar', Mogwai and the Monkeys' own 'When the Sun Goes Down'.'^[7] A feature of Arctic Monkeys songs in the past, Alex Turner's Sheffield-accent is again a feature, 'singing over rough, relentless bass and surprisingly appropriate guitar triplets.'^[8]

When asked to say a little about the song's protagonist, Alex Turner replied, 'I can't remember Brian now... I don't know if he were in my imagination or what... it's a blank spot in my brain... I think that's what he [Brian] wanted.'^[9] He later explained in NME that Brian had been a guy that they had met backstage in the band's dressing room at a gig at Studio Coast 'Ageha' in Tokyo, Japan, and that 'When he left the room, we were a bit in awe of his presence. So we did a brainstorm for what he was like, drew a little picture and wrote things about him,' while guitarist Jamie Cook added 'He was right smooth, very LA. He just appeared with like a business card and like a round neck T-shirt and a tie loosely around it, I'd never seen that before. It felt like he was trying to get inside your mind. We were checking out his attire; it inspired us.'^[10]

Music video[edit]

The music video for the song, directed by Huse Monfaradi, features the band playing in a sparse sepia set, interspersed with clips of female dancers in front of a large computerised display, stock footage from old medical educational programs and brief flashes of images of objects mentioned in the lyrics, such as 'Brian', 'jacuzzi' and lightning in place of 'thunder'. The video was recorded on 14 February 2007, the same day as the 2007 Brit Awards, leading to them missing the ceremony and instead sending two video acceptance messages^[11] where they dressed as The Wizard of Oz characters and the Village People. The video premiered on MTV2 on 17 March 2007.

'Leave Before the Lights Come On' is a song by English indie rock band Arctic Monkeys. The song was released on 14 August 2006 as the band's third single in the United Kingdom. The song was not included on the band's debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, though Alex Turner has stated that it could have been on the album as it follows a similar theme to many of the album tracks. It was the band's final release before promotion began for their second album Favourite Worst Nightmare in spring 2007.^[1] However, the song was not included on that album either.

'Leave Before the Lights Come On' entered the UK Singles Chart at number four on 20 August 2006, becoming their first single not to top the chart. It did, however, reach number one on the Scottish Singles Chart, becoming their third consecutive number-one in that region. The single was the Arctic Monkeys' first single to enter the Canadian Singles Chart, debuting at number two behind Eva Avila's 'Meant to Fly' by only 15 copies.^[2] It descended to number three in its second week and remained on the chart for seven weeks.^[3] The song also reached the top 20 in Denmark and Ireland.

Background[edit]

The single's release was confirmed on the band's website on 6 July 2006, and that the track would be released on Monday, 14 August, on a three-track CD and a two-track 7' vinyl. The website did not offer any further information, but NME's website announced that the two B-side tracks for the single will be covers, 'one of which will be their version of an old song and the other a cover of a track by one of their favourite groups.'^[4] In July 2006, it was confirmed on Gonzo that 'Put Your Dukes Up, John' by The Little Flames would be one of the cover versions. On 17 July, it emerged on an Arctic Monkeys fan site that the other cover version would be 'Baby, I'm Yours' originally recorded by Barbara Lewis. The official website soon confirmed this and added that the track would be a collaboration with the 747s.

Alex Turner confirmed the release of the single in an interview with NME: 'Leave Before the Lights Come On' feels very much like it could be on the album. So we're going to put that out as a single. I remember it's the last song that I wrote about that sort of time, going out and that. My life's not really like that any more.'^[5]

This is the first single to feature Nick O'Malley on bass following the departure of Andy Nicholson, which was announced on 20 June 2006.^[6]

Music video[edit]

The video was released on the band's website on 3 August 2006. It was directed by John Hardwick, who was also at the helm for the video for 'M.O.R.' for the band Blur. The video was filmed in Sheffield in the Cultural Industries Quarter in July 2006 and features actors Kate Ashfield of Shaun of the Dead fame and Paddy Considine of The World's End and Hot Fuzz fame. The video starts off with Ashfield on the top of a building (the Showroom Cinema) about to jump off. She drops her shoe as Considine is walking in the street below. He sees Ashfield and immediately runs to the top of the building. He puts out his hand then he and Ashfield hug. The two walk to nearby cafe and sit down to have coffee. Ashfield makes an attempt to kiss Considine. He stops her, showing his wedding ring, then walks out of the cafe but she makes an attempt to follow him. He gets her up against a fence and threatens her before walking off. Ashfield then runs back up to the top of the building where she purposely drops her shoe in front of an unsuspecting Matt Helders, strolling along in a T-shirt with the words 'Bang, Bang' on it, a recording company for the Arctic Monkeys, implying the events to be repeated cyclically.
