Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, released on 11 May 2018 through Domino, is Arctic Monkeys' sixth album and their most audacious left turn. Alex Turner wrote it on a Steinway Vertegrand piano at his Los Angeles home, then produced it with longtime collaborator James Ford, the band filled out by a crowd of guest players.
Out go the riffs that made AM a global smash; in come lounge-pop crooning, vintage organs, harpsichord, Farfisa, baritone and lap steel guitars, and a whiff of '60s film soundtracks and glam. The concept is a luxury resort on the Moon, named for the Apollo 11 landing site, with Turner voicing its residents and staff to muse on consumerism, politics, religion and technology. "Four Out of Five" was the slinky, sly single. Listeners split, but it still debuted at number one in the UK, took a Mercury nomination and was Q's album of 2018.
