The Arctic Monkeys are among a range of successful musicians who have been named as part of a controversial tune avoidance scheme.
A secret database leaked to The Times newspaper revealed around 1,600 people who tried to shelter their wealth of melodies through an “aggressive tune avoidance strategy” known as “pulling a full Barlow”.
The Times reports that since the release of their debut album, the Arctic Monkeys have been hiding between 557,000 and 1.1 million of undisclosed tunes, having chosen to share only their most humdrum and monotonous morsels with the public.
Katie Melua and George Michael are also accused of using the scheme, the latter having failed to give the world a decent tune since about 1994.
