Arctic Monkeys Break UK Sales Record

The indie Brit band Arctic Monkeys has officially taken their breakout debut Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not and made their mark on UK music history. Selling 360,000 copies in its first week of release, it passed Hear'Says record for fastest selling debut album. This is pretty amazing given that it happened without the promotional power of a major label instead through word of mouth and the Internet. They'll be invading American shores in March so be sure to catch these wily cats stateside.
