Reviews"Turner’s long tried to ape Nick Cave and Dion, but on the likes of 'American Sports' and 'Golden Trunks' he hit upon a style of noirish, plastic-soul balladry all his own.", "Shelving stadium-ready indie rock in favour of a sparkling vintage cosmic voyage, this record marks the Monkeys’ first step into a surrealist universe...", Included in Entertainment Weekly’s “The 20 Best Albums of 2018” -- "The album trades in glittery Bowie-esque glam, Serge Gainsbourg swing, and baroque space-jam psychedelia.", "The band’s sixth album is undoubtedly their strangest, most alluring release to date....Guitars take a backseat to twinkling keyboards and zero-gravity ambience...", "TRANQUILITY, with its baroque piano pop and arch, Bowie-esque flourishes, somehow manages to blaze whole new avenues without losing the core essence of the U.K. foursome’s musical DNA.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A fleshed-out, Bowie-esque statement of excess and grandeur. Lavish strings populate ‘One Point Perspective’, and album closer ‘The Ultracheese’ is one of the band’s finest collective achievements to date...", "A left-turn if ever there was one, but the way Alex Turner swaps witty sleaze for absurdist suave makes it a totally bemusing and fascinating listen.", "A lounge-pop concept record set in a casino piano bar on the moon. Turner romances his Steinway, tapping influences like French crooner Serge Gainsbourg's oily Sixties ballads...", "Arctic Monkeys’ latest serves as a direct line into Turner's innermost thoughts....A testament to the band’s ever-evolving nature, proving that reinvention might be the key to longevity."

  • The Best Album Bowie Never Wrote

    When I first heard the single 4 out of 5 on the radio, it seemed very familiar, which is always quite comforting. From the shaped vocal sound, to the musical taste, this could have come anywhere between Alladin Sane and Diamond Dogs and I loved that about it. Hearing the full album on Spotify was just as impressive. The loose concept of the Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino on the moon drips 70s sleaze and cool in equal measure. For a band that started so brightly in the indie rock scene with clever lyrics and playful phrasing it doesn't surprise me that with maturity Alex Turner and co have been able to release an album as good as this. Definitively the best album since their debut release and the best album I've heard in the last 5 years.
