Arctic Monkeys ride tractors in the black and white video for new single 'One For The Road'
The song, which features on the band's latest album 'AM', is accompanied by a new video shot by Focus Creeps, who also made the videos for 'R U Mine?' and 'Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?'
The video starts with guitarist Jamie Cook riding a tractor slowly through an empty field before joining his bandmates for a performance of the song, surrounded by models and fireworks exploding in the background.
Queen drummer Roger Taylor has confirmed Brian May is finishing work on a number of tracks Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson duetted on.

As you may have seen, this week’s NME features the 2013 edition of their 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. For this one, they also accepted votes from a bunch of the mag’s alumni, including me, so I thought it’d be an easy, albeit self-indulgent, blog to reproduce my Top 50 albums here.
