Well if you were looking forward to seeing The Last Shadow Puppets live, you’re going to have to wait a while….quite a while. The band, which is the side project of the Arctic Monkeys Alex Turner and The Rascals Miles Kane, won’t be touring till autumn. The duo recently released their debut album ‘The Age Of The Understatement’ (duo out till May 6 in the US), but due to their busy schedule and their own bands, they wont be touring till later this year. Speaking to BBC 6Music Kane said, “We’re going to play live at the end of the year, in October. The Rascals’ album is out June 9.
There’s nothing better than free music, and CSS knows that. The band has announced that a new single will be made available as a free download. Fans can download the track, ‘Rat Is Dead (Rage)’, from the bands website on April 28.
