Fresh from supporting friends and fellow Yorkshiremen The Artic Monkeys, Milburn are the latest band to shoot out from the Sheffield scene.

Although the boys have just finished a European tour opening for the Monkeys, this time last year it was the other way around.

But the band, who have been compared to everyone from The Jam to The Libertines, can't be bothered with trying to top-trump their Sheffield mates.

"The whole thing is getting boring, although I understand why people are interested," says singer and bassist Joe Carnall.

"Some people have tried to use us to get to them, but we've known each other for years. They asked us if we wanted to support them on their European tour and we thought, why not?

We had a great time and got up to all sorts, but I can't say what or I might get a letter from their solicitors through my door."

X-rated tour antics aside, Milburn's first gig was a much tamer affair - a 40th birthday party, where all the punters wanted was All Right Now by Free.

Years later, in 2004, the band's demo Lipstick Lickin' got them noticed - not by a bunch of drunk 40-somethings, but by the music industry. A year later they had inked a deal with Mercury.

Joe, who like most of Milburn had barely finished his A-Levels when they were signed, then had to decide between taking a place to study history at Cambridge and his career with the band.

It wasn't hard, says the straight-talking singer. "We did a ball at Cambridge this summer and let's just say I didn't regret not going," says Joe. "I never would have fitted in it's a different world."

The band, who cite their influences as The Jam, Clash, Led Zeppelin and Bedouin Sound Clash, release their debut album provisionally titled Well, Well, Well - in September.

Only then, says Joe, can people judge whether they're riding on The Arctic Monkeys' coat tails.

"I'm not bothered," he says.

"People can say what they want. If we're around in six months we'll have proved our point."
