EDITORS’ NOTES “Have you got colour in your cheeks?” asks Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner over the sinister guitar riff and plodding beat of 'Do I Wanna Know?' It’s the first in a string of Turner’s leering inquiries, and by the time the song reaches its chorus—with bashing drums, falsetto harmonies and taunting attitude—Arctic Monkeys’ fifth album has made an authoritative opening statement. The band’s confidence is discernible on each minute of AM—a title inspired by The Velvet Underground’s VU, but one that can be read as a double entendre on this collection of after-midnight rock. Big sleazy guitar lines on tunes like “Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High” and “R U Mine?” are over-the-top in just the right way, delivered with the charismatic nonchalance that’s marked the band's career. And while many of the collaborators are familiar (including award-winning producer James Ford and songwriter/producer Ross Orton), the album’s unexpected cameos include Queens of the Stone Age mastermind Josh Homme and longtime Elvis Costello drummer Pete Thomas.

By distilling the sounds of Franz Ferdinand, the Clash, the Strokes, and the Libertines into a hybrid of swaggering indie rock and danceable neo-punk, Arctic Monkeys became one of the U.K.'
S biggest bands of the new millennium. Their meteoric rise began in 2005, when the teenagers fielded offers from major labels and drew a sold-out crowd to the London Astoria, using little more than a self-released EP as bait. Several months later, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not became the fastest-selling debut album in British history, entrenching Arctic Monkeys in the same circle as multi-platinum acts like Oasis and Blur. Frontman Alex Turner and guitarist Jamie Cook began their music careers in 2001, when the friends both received guitars for Christmas. Two years later, they began performing shows around their native Sheffield with drummer Matt Helders and bassist Andy Nicholson, two fellow students at Stocksbridge High School.
A series of demo recordings followed, and Arctic Monkeys' audience swelled as fans circulated those recordings via the Internet. The musicians soon found themselves at the center of a growing media circus, with such outlets as BBC Radio examining the band's music and mounting hype. By distributing their homemade material on the Internet, Arctic Monkeys were able to build a sizable fan base without the help of a record label, effectively circumventing the usual road to superstardom. They continued to buck tradition by signing with Domino Records in 2005, eschewing a major label's budget for Domino's D.I.Y. Cred and hip roster (which also included Franz Ferdinand, a touchstone for the band's sound). The smart moves paid off as Arctic Monkeys' first two singles - 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' and 'When the Sun Goes Down' - both topped the U.K. Critical reception was similarly favorable, but few could have predicted the whirlwind success of the band's debut album, which ousted Oasis' Definitely Maybe as the fastest-selling debut in British history (a record that was broken one year later by Leona Lewis' Spirit).
Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not sold 363,735 copies during its first week alone, transforming Arctic Monkeys from underground stars into mainstream figures. Arctic Monkeys' debut sold approximately 300,000 total copies in America - enough to warrant more media coverage, but notably less than the album's British sales during its first week alone. Nevertheless, their success continued as they released a spring EP, Who the F.k Are Arctic Monkeys, and prepared for a stateside tour. Temporary bassist Nick O'Malley was brought aboard for the band's American shows, while a fatigued Nicholson stayed at home. Nicholson then announced his official departure when the band returned home in June 2006, and O'Malley remained with Arctic Monkeys as a permanent member. That fall, the guys received the 2006 Mercury Prize and donated the accompanying money to an undisclosed charity. Additional accolades included Best British Breakthrough Act at the Brit Awards and Best New Band at the NME Awards.
NME also made a bold assertion by deeming the band's debut one of the Top Five British albums ever released. Released in April 2007, Favourite Worst Nightmare updated Arctic Monkeys' sound with louder instruments and faster tempos. The bandmates had recorded the sophomore album quickly, wishing to return to the road as soon as possible, and the speedy turnaround between records helped maintain the band's popularity at home. Favourite Worst Nightmare sold 85,000 copies during its first day of release, and all 12 tracks entered the Top 200 of the U.K. Singles charts. As Alex Turner briefly turned his attention to a side project, the Last Shadow Puppets, Arctic Monkeys received another Mercury Prize nomination and took home two titles at the 2008 Brit Awards. Recording sessions for a third album commenced in early 2008 and lasted throughout the year, with producers James Ford (who previously worked with Turner on the Last Shadow Puppets' album) and Josh Homme (frontman of Queens of the Stone Age) adding some newfound heft to the band's sound.
Meanwhile, Arctic Monkeys released a concert album entitled At the Apollo - with accompanying video footage captured on 35mm film - before unveiling Humbug in August 2009. Humbug went platinum in the U.K. But failed to produce a Top Ten hit, with 'Crying Lightning' peaking at number 12 and 'Cornerstone' topping out at 94. The band hit the road that February, kicking off a multi-leg tour that ran through the rest of the year.
After playing another handful of shows in early 2010, the guys took a short hiatus before reconvening with James Ford for their fourth album. Sessions began that fall, and the resulting Suck It and See arrived in spring 2011. Meanwhile, Turner also wrote music for a Richard Ayoade film, Submarine, whose soundtrack doubled as the frontman's first solo release. In February 2012, Arctic Monkeys released a song entitled 'R U Mine?' On their YouTube channel, which indicated that a new album was on the way. A few months later, the band played at the London Summer Olympics opening ceremony, performing 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' and the Beatles' 'Come Together,' but it wasn't until the summer of 2013 that a new album was to be revealed. Entitled AM, the fifth album was released in September, a few months after a triumphant headlining performance at Glastonbury 2013, which was opened with the new song 'Do I Wanna Know?'
Following the supporting tour for AM, the band entered an extended hiatus, during which time the individual members pursued solo projects. Arctic Monkeys resurfaced in April of 2018 with Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, a softer affair than their previous albums. Andrew Leahey.

Turner continued: 'He came down and sort of got us out of a little rut. It's just fun, it's friends, extended family now – they came round, had a fun night. His contribution to our record is really exciting, it's probably my favourite. The 30 seconds that he's in there is just, I dunno, it's like something that I've never heard before.

It's a really cool, sexy after-midnight record. It's called AM, so I guess that's really obvious. And it's really good. It's really good.
It's not disco as such, but it's like a modern, dancefloor sexy record. It's really good.' Musical style The album draws inspiration from various musical genres, including, and. Alex Turner described the album as sounding 'like a beat, but we've given it an bowl-cut and sent it galloping across the desert on a Stratocaster', adding that it 'sound less like four lads playing in a room this time.
Essentially, that's what it is, but if you can find a way to manipulate the instruments or the sounds to the point where it sounds a bit like a hip-hop beat that'd be boss in your car, then I think there's something quite cool about that.' Turner also cited, and as influences. Guitarist Jamie Cook also cited as an inspiration for the album, saying that it was one of the only albums they listened to while recording AM. Arctic Monkeys took a different approach to recording AM in comparison to their previous album, with Alex Turner stating that it is much more a 'studio album'. The band incorporated new instruments to record the album; they used keyboards such as piano, organ, and celeste, a, and a vintage drum machine. Recording was done differently as well; producer stated that, instead of the 'live' recording technique of the previous album, this album was recorded mainly with bass guitar and drums laid down first with emphasis on groove.
