Hello and welcome! 

Today I am going to talk a little bit of Arctic Monkeys, their new album to be specific, (in this post I am just going to talk about the band, biography, albums and their new album). 

Now… Let’s start 

ARCTIC MONKEYS

Arctic Monkeys is a British indie or alternative rock band made by Alex Turner, Nick O’Mailey, Jamie Cook and Matt Helders.

Actual members of the band: 

• Alex Turner: Singer (he plays guitar too) 
• Nick O’Mailey: Bass 
• Jamie Cook: Guitar 
• Matt Helders: Drums 

In 2001, Alex Turner and Jamie Cook decided to set up a rock band with their Christmas instruments, Matt Helders and Andy Nicholson joined too. 

The name for the band was the name of Matt Helders’s uncle band that he has in the 70’s but then it was changed and the name of the band was Arctic Monkeys because Alex Turner’s father had a band when he was younger by the name of: Arktik Monkeez.

All of this was just a lie that Arctic Monkeys did just to fool with everyone and with the interviewers, the name of the band came up because Jamie Cook wanted it to be called like that. 

The idea of the band came up to Jamie’s head when he was at school.

AM and Favourite Worst Nightmare are my favorite albums from Arctic Monkeys, both of them have songs that are happy, some of them can make you happier, the best songs from each album for me are: 

These songs are from Favourite Worst Nightmares: 

• Teddy Picker 
• Fluorescent Adolescent 
• Old Yellow Bricks 
• Balaclava 
• Brianstorm 

These are from AM: 

I think I like most of the songs on the album, this is the best album for me after Favourite Worst Nightmares:

• Do I Wanna Know? 
• R U Mine? 
• Arabella 
• Mad Sounds 
• Why’d You Only Call Me When You Are High? 
• Snap Out of It Knee Socks 
• I Wanna Be Yours

I recommend you to listen to all of this songs that are listed here, I think that you will like them a lot. 

NEW ALBUM: Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino 

Let’s talk about the new album that is coming this May 11th, this is confirmed by the itself. 

Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is going to be dropped this 2018 and Alex Turner said that they are not going to reveal any song before the album isn’t published. 

They say that the album was going to be a solo album for Alex Turner because it was more personal than a project of a band.

Here you can see what Jamie Cook said about this: 

"I think at first, because it was quite basic - piano, vocal and no guitar - Al was in two minds about, ‘is this Arctic Monkeys or am I going somewhere else with this, and maybe at first, I was a bit like that as well. It’s definitely not a guitar-heavy record, not typically what we’d do. It took a lot more thinking about." ~ Jamie Cook on the new album.

With this, I can say that this new album is going to have calm songs, maybe there will be guitar and drums, but not in a heavy way like Jamie Cook said. I don’t have any problem with this because I really like calm songs but if the album has a “rock” song I would be more satisfied. 

The album is going to have 11 songs and here are the names: 

1. Star Treatment 
2. One Point Perspective 
3. American Sports 
4. Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino 
5. Golden Trunks 
6. Four Out of Five 
7. The World’s First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip 
8. Science Fiction 
9. She Looks Like Fun 
10. Batphone 
11. The Ultracheese 

I got to say that the names of the songs are very cool hahaha. 

Here you have a teaser that Arctic Monkeys posted in their official YouTube account.

So that’s all for this post, just wanted to talk about the band and the new album. I will do a review of the songs the moment when they publish the entire album.  

If you want to hear something else from them then you can hear Alex Turner’s EP that is called: Submarine, that were made for the film. Submarine has awesome songs like: 

• Stuck on the puzzle 
• Piledriver Waltz  
• Glass in the park 

These songs are really “soft”, (I don’t know how to say it) and very, very calm. I really liked this EP.
