Arctic Monkeys 'Deny They've Matured'

Arctic Monkeys insist their third album 'Humbug' is not maturer than their previous two records, after some reviewers suggested the rockers had "grown up".
"I don't think mature is the right word, honestly." Says drummer Matt Helders. "Who knows? Next time they'll the critics be calling it immature because of the bar of maturity we've set."
Frontman Alex Turner also added to BBC Newsbeat: "There is more to this record. Steve Lamacq just described it as tantalising which I quite liked."
Arctic Monkeys release 'Humbug' on August 24th in the UK (next Monday).
