Arctic Monkeys

English rockers like to point out that they didn’t even know what Myspace was even though their page was pretty much the reason people started paying attention to their music back in 2004/2005. The band claims that it was a fan account that started all this social media craze, but regardless of whose idea it was to share Arctic Monkeys’ music on Myspace, it’s still a fact.

Social media fame eventually caught the attention of BBC Radio and music press, and soon the band was hailed as the next best thing on the British indie scene. Ten years and several solo projects later, Monkeys still enjoy world-wide success and just confirmed that they’re working on a new record.
