Fresh off their nomination for the Mercury Prize with their solid new album, indie darlings Arctic Monkeys stopped by BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge for a short set. The quartet covered Drake‘s latest single, “Hold On, We’re Going Home.”

While they aren’t the first to take on the track, Arctic Monkeys rendition is in a different league, fitting thematically with their latest LP. Full of certain angst and pining, lead singer Alex Turner makes it seem like the cover is just another track off AM.
