A song about heartbreak, “Piledriver Waltz” was originally written for the soundtrack of the movie "Submarine", which features original songs written by Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner. The title fits the theme of heart ache because ‘piledriver’ is a very painful wrestling move when it is being done to you; like that feeling that you’ve been punched in the stomach when someone breaks your heart. Alex has taken it a step further, then re-recorded for the album.
