On 19th June 2006 The Band Officially Announced That Founding Member And Bassist Andy Nicholson Had Left The Band After Missing The American Leg Of Their Tour Due To 'fatigue' And The Other Band Members Couldn't Stand The Constant 'missing His Girlfriend Syndrome' So They Told Him To Sling His Hook.

The Single "Leave Before The Lights Come On" Came Out On August 14th But Only Reached Number 4 On The UK Charts Denying The Band A Third Consecutive Number 1 Single. Their Debut Album Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not Won The 2006 Mercury Prize Was Chosen As The Best Album Of Year 2006 By Q Magazine And Received A Slew Of Other Accolades. Their Second Album Favourite Worst Nightmare Was Released On April 23rd 2007. It Was Preceded By "Brianstorm" The First Single From The Album Which Was Released A Week Before. Like Its Predecessor "Favourite Worst Nightmare" Sold More Than The Rest Of The Top 20 Combined And - Due To An Error On ITunes - Every Song On The Record Appeared On The UK Top 200 Singles The Next Week. When Asked About Favourite Worst Nightmare Turner Commented "We Haven't Changed That Much. It's Still About Making Contact With Girls Or Not Making Contact With Girls". The Band Began To Write And Record Demos For The Third Album In January 2008 Turner Said "We Had Tunes That We'd Already Been Playing On Tour So We Recorded Them. That’s Six songs . We’re Going To Take It Easy And Start Practicing Over The Summer And Doing New Stuff."
