Arctic Monkeys' new album Suck It And See has been censored by a variety of undisclosed US stores following controversy surrounding its suggestive title.

Bringing to mind the proverb that 'sin is in the eye of the beholder', the band have confirmed that the record is being covered up for fear it might upset people.

Speaking to XFM, head monkey Alex Turner said; "They think it is rude, disrespectful and they're putting a sticker over it in America in certain stores, big ones."
