Video: R U Mine? by Arctic Monkeys

Hot on the heels of their most critically well-received album and a sizable world tour, and right in the midst of an opening stint for newly-minted arena rock band the Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys have decided to release standalone single “R U Mine?” for no other reason than it is just too good a song to keep to themselves. And boy howdy has this puppy got some teeth. All low-end growl and blues-rock swagger, “R U Mine?” is loud and aggressive and fueled by a healthy mix of longing and lust. Everything you want in a good old-fashioned rock song. Watch the tongue-in-cheek video below.
