Arctic Monkeys on the front cover of the special Xmas 2007 issue of NME



We bet you don't look good on the dancefloor - dressed like this...​

It's the festive season and those Arctic Monkeys are getting into the spirit of things with this wacky fancy-dress Crimbo photo shoot.​


The lads' elves sported cuts and bruises as if it had all got a bit tasty at the pub next to Santa's Grotto. But the Monkeys' moody faces were all natural.​

They had to hang around for five hours waiting for Snow White - one Miss Amy Winehouse - before getting a call saying the jazz babe was "ill".​

A source said: "They were dressed as elves for a bit longer than they would have liked."​

But their spokesman told us: "They were a bit disappointed Amy didn't show but still had fun."​

Don't worry, lads, we reckon you all look great dressed as Santa's little helpers. Although Amy would have made a great Dopey.​

For the full feature see this week's special Christmas issue of NME, on sale now.​
