He has also released a studio album and collaborated with artists such as Dean Fertita, Josh Homme and Iggy Pop.

He played a few TV shows with We Are Scientists in the UK[5][6] as well as remixing their second single "Chick Lit" as a B-side for the vinyl release.

In August 2008, it was announced that Helders would compile the latest release in the LateNightTales DJ mix CD series.

The set, entitled Late Night Tales: Matt Helders, was released on 27 October 2008 and included a spoken work track performed and written by bandmate Alex Turner.

'"[14] Helders explained the band's insistence on singing in their native Sheffield accent, saying, "when you talk between the songs at a gig and you're speakin' English in our normal accent, it seems a bit strange when you burst into song like you're from California or something ... it looks a bit daft.

"[14] Helders also points out that despite the fame of the band, he can still avoid being mobbed in the street – "If we all go out together at night clubbing, it's difficult, but alone you don't get recognised much.

[15] Helders prefers playing the drums wearing a comfortable pair of 'joggers' instead of jeans "due to movement and sweat."

"[16] Helders started dating model Breana McDow in 2011, after they met on the set of the music video for Arctic Monkeys' single Suck It and See,[17] and became engaged in 2013.

[17] In October 2015, the couple had a daughter, Amelia Darling Helders, resulting in their wedding being pushed for a year.
