Happy birthday to The Age of the Understatement, which was released on April 15, 2008.

“Doing the Shadow Puppets album was when I started to think of what I did as songwriting. Songwriters always reminded me of that kid at school who would go around with his guitar, like, ‘Yeah, songwritin’ man,’ looking wistful. That wasn’t me—those kinds of people put me off. In the early days, I’d write a bunch of lyrics and almost look at them as a sort of joke, to make the rest of the boys laugh. And then we’d jigsaw all these parts together to make the tunes. With the Last Shadow Puppets album, Miles and I took a much more traditional approach, thinking about melodies and chords, melodies and lyrics. That opened the door to more of a purist approach. Every time you write a song, you’re looking for some sort of perfection, and you never quite reach it. You’re always looking for that extra missing piece.”

Original manuscript of the track The Jeweller's Hands (2008/2009)

"so many great songs have been written here and this is a really great one @ arcticmonkeys the jeweler's hands.i still have a lot of handwritten original lyrics from any band that is cool enough to leave them here for me. i love hearing the @ bechstein.official piano on this track, and all others it appears on. it's my favorite piano sound in the world. fred and i bought it at @ shop_angelview thrift store after @ vicwillums found it and suggested we buy it to record it on her album she was readying to record here, musings of a creek dipper. our friend, the extremely talented and awesome @ trinashoemaker produced and engineered it.. i couldn't be happier that many find this little house in the desert inspiring. i know i have since the first day i walked through the door. love to all"
