It was released on 11 May 2018 by Domino Recording Company, and produced by frequent Arctic Monkeys collaborator James Ford and band frontman Alex Turner. The album was written by Turner on a piano, and features a lush sound, categorised as lounge pop, space pop and glam rock, with elements of jazz ; a departure from the band 's previous guitar - heavy work. Its lyrical content draws heavily from science fiction and film, exploring consumerism, politics, religion, technology. The album 's stylistic deviation polarised listeners. However, it was released to generally positive reviews and became the band 's sixth consecutive number - one debut in the UK, as well as the country 's fastest - selling vinyl record in 25 years.

The album was critically acclaimed, and brought the group new levels of commercial success. On 1 April 2016, Alex Turner 's psychedelic pop side project the Last Shadow Puppets released their second studio album Everything You 've Come to Expect. In April 2017, Turner co-produced Alexandra Savior 's debut album Belladonna of Sadness with James Ford. This was Turner 's first foray into record production, with the two proceeding to produce Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. Meanwhile, drummer Matt Helders joined Iggy Pop 's band for Post Pop Depression, as well as contributing to `` Diamond Heart '' from Lady Gaga 's Joanne, and marrying actress Breana McDow. Following the international success of AM, Turner suffered from writer 's block, struggling to find a direction for a new album. Having written `` Sweet Dreams, TN '' from Everything You 've Come to Expect, he lost interest in writing love songs, with a friend suggesting `` not doing that for a moment ''. In early 2016, upon watching Federico Fellini 's 1963 film 81⁄2, Turner was inspired by its depiction of writer 's block, childhood memories and the science fiction genre. He began writing songs for the album on a Steinway Vertegrand piano he received as a 30th birthday gift from the band 's manager Ian McAndrew, in a spare room of his Los Angeles home dubbed `` Lunar Surface ''. During the process Turner recalled piano lessons he had received from his father at the age of eight, commenting that he `` never thought ( his father 's influence ) would find its way into ( his ) compositions as much as it has on this record ''. Many of the vocal takes on the album remain from Turner 's home demos on a Tascam 388 8 - track recording machine. Guitarist Jamie Cook commented that he `` was blown away by the direction Alex had gone in '' when Turner played the band the demos in February 2017. Initially unsure how they would record the songs, Cook suggested Turner release it as a solo album, but Turner was uninterested. Cook began recording guitar ideas to complement the demo, with bassist Nick O'Malley particularly approving of the track `` Star Treatment ''. In September 2017 the band began recording material at Vox Studios in Hollywood and La Frette in Paris, with long - time collaborator James Ford co-producing the album with Turner. During these sessions `` the piano and guitar started to jell '', with O'Malley and drummer Matt Helders joining. Helders commented that during recording he played with more restraint than on previous records, noting that `` it 's about playing for the songs ''. Further recording sessions took place with Ford in London. The group employed a wider array of guest musicians than on previous albums, with contributors including Ford, guitarist Tom Rowley ( who serves as a touring member of the band ), Guards drummer Loren Humphrey, Zach Dawes and Tyler Parkford of Mini Mansions, and Cam Avery, who contributes backing vocals to `` She Looks Like Fun ''. The musicians all played together in the same room, inspired by the sessions for the Beach Boys ' Pet Sounds and Phil Spector 's Wall of Sound production method. Avery and Parkford both joined the band as touring members following the album 's release. Composition David Bowie ( left ) and Serge Gainsbourg ( right ) were commonly cited as influencing the album 's style. Musical style and influences The album is a departure from the band 's previous guitar riff - driven work, resultant of Turner 's usage of the piano over the guitar in its composition. It has been characterised as lounge pop, space pop and glam rock, as well as incorporating influences from jazz. Its sound has been described as `` subdued, but warm and classic in the way that musicians who seek out storied mixing consoles aspire to '', as well as `` lush and claustrophobic ''. The album has been compared to the works of Father John Misty, David Bowie, Serge Gainsbourg, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave and Jarvis Cocker, as well as Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. Turner has cited Gainsbourg 's Histoire de Melody Nelson, Cohen 's Death of a Ladies ' Man, Dion 's Born to Be with You and François de Roubaix 's score for Le Samouraï as key influences. Lyrics and themes Lyrically the album refers frequently to science fiction, exploring `` the role of entertainment -- the desire to escape into it, and the desire to create it -- during periods of societal upheaval and crisis '', influenced by current politics in the United States, as well as consumerism, religion and technology. The album 's lyrics have been described as `` absurdist suave '', in oppose to the `` witty sleaze '' of Turner 's previous work. Turner has labelled the album 's narrator as `` a lounge - y character '', with the `` dense '' and `` self - aware '' lyrics described as `` endlessly quotable '', written in a `` rambling, stream - of - conciousness style ''. `` Turner cited various films as influencing the album 's lyrics, including Spirits of the Dead, World on a Wire and the works of Jean - Pierre Melville. `` Science fiction creates these other worlds within which we can explore our own, and I wanted to write something about that idea. So, through reading sci - fi... I began to access that sort of vocabulary -- then suddenly we 're talking about virtual reality moon casino experiences. '' -- Alex Turner Turner commented that he took a different approach to writing lyrics than on previous albums, noting that he `` became less concerned on this album ( with ) compartmentalising every idea to the point where each song became this episode that starts and ends in three minutes '', with Leonard Cohen inspiring a different perspective on each lyric 's relationship with its context. He further noted that his writing on the album was `` blunt '', in a way he considered similar to the band 's debut Whatever People Say I Am, That 's What I 'm Not. On the connections between the two albums, Turner commented that `` it 's set in a completely different place, obviously, but there 's something in the lyrics that reminds me of something in that writing. I 'm tempted to say that it 's something to do with how blunt it is. I think that was something I was trying to get away from, and perhaps I 've returned to it now ''. Songs `` Star Treatment '', the album 's opening track, begins with a reference to The Strokes ' influence on the band 's early work, with Turner commenting that their arrival `` changed what music I was listening to, what shoes I was wearing. I grew my hair out and borrowed my mum 's blazer. I was a huge fan ''. Its chorus describes a fictional band named `` the Martini Police ''. The track 's narrator expresses surprise that an acquaintance has never seen the science fiction film Blade Runner. Turner has stated that this was based on real - life interactions, noting his interest in the fact that `` it goes beyond : ' What do you mean you 've never seen Blade Runner ? ' and gets to : ' Oh my God, I envy you ! ' ''. Musically, Turner `` glams up like David Bowie descending on a lunar wedding ''. `` One Point Perspective '' is built around a `` sweet piano figure '', containing `` lavish '' strings and a `` super-simple hip - hop beat ''. Lyrically the track explores social media, with a `` jaded narrator '' mocking `` rock - star ennui '', and joking `` I 'm gon na run for government. I 'm gon na form a covers band an ' all ''. Turner has noted that the track 's jazz elements were influenced by his father, commenting that `` the sort of jazzy bit of that, that every time it comes around, when I sit there, it feels like something he would play ''. On `` American Sports '', the album takes `` a dark turn '', with Turner 's vocals described as `` sinister ''. The album 's titular track mocks the `` sterility of our modern world '', with Turner sarcastically singing `` technological advances really bloody get me in the mood ''. The track also contains political references, on which Turner has commented that `` more of those ideas have certainly found a way into this record than anything I 've done before ''. `` Golden Trunks '' has been described as `` unsettling '', and contains a `` raw and brooding '' guitar riff that has been compared to the album 's predecessor AM, with Turner 's vocals containing `` rakish charm, in the form of falsetto ''. The line `` the leader of the free world reminds you of a wrestler wearing tight golden trunks '' has caused attention, with many believing the lyrics to be in reference to Donald Trump. `` Four Out of Five '' The album 's lead single is a glam rock song, which has been described as its most accessible track. Problems playing this file ? See media help. `` Four Out of Five '' has been described as a `` Bowie - ish glam song '', as well as being likened to the band 's Suck It and See and Everything You 've Come to Expect by Turner 's side - project the Last Shadow Puppets. It has been labelled as the album 's `` only singalong anthem '', and describes an acclaimed taqueria on the moon named the `` Information - Action Ratio '', in reference to Neil Postman 's concept, exploring gentrification. The taqueria 's name was a coincidental result of Matt Helders ' backing vocals, with Turner commenting that `` phonetically it 's quite alluring ''. On `` The World 's First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip '', Turner `` flips with ease from a Bowie - style drawl to the falsetto and to a gruff murmur ''. Its `` reverb and sparse touches of bass and percussion '' has been compared to Pet Sounds. `` Science Fiction '' is `` driven by a slinky riff '', and has been compared stylistically to Humbug, while `` She Looks Like Fun '' has been described as a `` ' 60s - style novelty track '' lyrically similar to the works of Morrissey. `` Batphone '' has also been compared to Humbug and AM, musically featuring a `` heavier thump ''. The track has been described as `` comical '' and `` jaunty '', specifically in the line `` Have I told you all about the time I got sucked into a hole through a handheld device ? ''. Turner explores a `` capitalist ennui '', singing `` I launch my fragrance called Integrity. I sell the fact that I ca n't be bought ''. `` The Ultracheese '' has been compared to `` Que Sera, Sera '' and the vocal melody of Patsy Cline 's `` Leavin ' on Your Mind '', with a `` gorgeous '' guitar solo and descending piano chords that `` symbol a kind of final bow ''. Artwork The album 's artwork was designed by Alex Turner using cardboard cut - outs and a Revox A77 tape machine. On the artwork, Turner stated that `` In the past I 've definitely had record covers that do n't, to me, represent what 's on the wax, and I certainly do n't feel that way about this one. By the end of it, I think I 'd forgotten there even was a record. I 'd just gotten obsessed with cardboard. '' Turner began by drawing a hexagon, to reflect the band 's sixth studio album, eventually drawing influence from architects Eero Saarinen and John Lautner, becoming `` quite consumed '' by the process. In an interview with Radio X he said : `` The album artwork started from a picture that I saw of someone in the art department of 2001 : A Space Odyssey, building the set for the Hilton on the moon. At this point, we 'd already decided to call the album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, so we began to think of things that may be in the lobby of this place. The thing that I became most obsessed with that there was a model of the place inside the lobby. '' Release and promotion In September 2017, bassist Nick O'Malley announced that the band had begun recording a follow - up to 2013 's AM, stating that if the album was not released in 2018 they 've `` got problems ''. In 2018, the band announced an extensive global tour to begin later that year. The release of Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino was first announced on 5 April 2018, through a short video directed by Ben Chappell. The video depicted a spinning model of the album 's artwork, and featured snippets of `` Four Out of Five ''. No singles were released before the album, although the songs `` American Sports '', `` Four Out of Five '', `` One Point Perspective '' and `` She Looks Like Fun '' were performed live in San Diego on 2 May, in what was their first show in nearly four years. The band announced pop - up shops for the weekend of the album 's release, in their native Sheffield, New York, Paris, Berlin, Tokyo, and Sydney. The Sydney pop - up venue included a mini film festival curated by the band. On 13 May, following the release of the album, `` Four Out of Five '' was issued as the album 's lead single, with an accompanying music video. On 6 June, the band performed live at BBC 's Maida Vale Studios, with their performance being broadcast four days later as a Live at the BBC special. Their setlist primarily consisted of songs from the album, as well as earlier singles. Critical reception Professional ratings Aggregate scores Source Rating Metacritic 74 / 100 Review scores Source Rating AllMusic The A.V. Club The Daily Telegraph The Guardian The Independent NME Pitchfork 8.1 / 10 Q Rolling Stone Uncut 7 / 10 Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino has received generally positive reviews from music critics, despite polarising listeners. On Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 74, based on 31 reviews. Thomas Smith of NME noted that the album was likely to be `` divisive '', describing it as `` the band 's most intriguing record to date ''. He promised the album would `` reward deep - diving listeners '', concluding that `` depending on where you 're sitting, this album will likely either be a bitter disappointment or a glorious step forward ''. Q described it as `` a strange, wonderful album, one that almost feels like Arctic Monkeys have embarked on their own full - band side - project ''. Uncut praised the album as `` low - key but engrossing '', but noted that `` it can be a little one - paced, and a little withholding ''. Roisin O'Connor of The Independent described the album as `` creative, intriguing and completely different ''. Spin 's Larry Fitzmaurice described the album as the group 's `` strangest and most alluring '', writing that a `` sense of heading into the unknown -- of charting new and strange artistic territory, accessibility be damned -- pervades Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino as a whole, its own adventurousness proving a successful gambit ''. Cosette Schulz from Exclaim ! said the album is worth a second and third listen, writing `` Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino feels like poetic social and fantasy - world commentary penned by Turner, who then fancied having a go at the piano and then brought the whole band in for good measure. Turner is clever and cheeky, as he 's been known to be, switching up his singing style from deep to falsetto, and even testing out different tones as he embodies certain characters. '' For The Guardian, Alexis Petridis praised the album 's humour, but criticised its occasional smugness, noting that `` a smart guy is sometimes all Turner seems to be '', with the album 's tracks `` feel ( ing ) like less than the sum of their parts ''. He concluded that `` at turns thrilling, smug, clever and oddly cold, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is only a qualified success '' and is `` evidence -- albeit flawed -- of a certain musical restlessness ''. In a mixed review for Rolling Stone, Jon Dolan praised the album 's ambition but wrote that `` the meandering LP ca n't bear the weight of the man at the piano 's indulgences '', concluding that the band `` tried a stylistic change up that does n't quite work '' and that `` sometimes restless artistry has a price ''. Annie Zaleski of The A.V. Club noted that the album 's lack of `` obvious hooks '' was its key flaw, resulting in it feeling `` unmoored and even plodding ''. Commercial performance The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, with combined sales of 86,000 copies, becoming the group 's sixth consecutive album to debut at number one in the UK. In addition, with 24,500 vinyl copies sold in the first week, the album became the UK 's fastest selling vinyl record in 25 years. A week following its release, the album was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry. The album also debuted at number one in Australia, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Scotland and Switzerland, as well as reaching number two in Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand and Norway, and the top ten in Austria, the Czech Republic, Italy, Canada, Germany, Mexico, Finland, Sweden and Poland. In the United States, the album debuted at number eight on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 47,000 units, of which 37,000 were in traditional album sales.
