"The Hellcat Spangled Shalalala" was the second single from Suck It and See, Arctic Monkeys' fourth album, and Domino set it loose on August 15, 2011, though fate got there first: a week earlier, most of the single's stock went up in flames when the PIAS warehouse burned during the London riots. James Ford produced it, and the band cut it at Sound City in Los Angeles early that year.

It's indie pop with a glint in its eye, the title alone a glittery mouthful, and it's written about a haunt of Alex Turner's that has never been pinned down. On the flip side sat "Little Illusion Machine (Wirral Riddler)", credited to Miles Kane and the Death Ramps.
