Opening Theme by Matthew McClelland    • Sucked Into A Hole (Batphone Remix)   ------------------------------- AM. The album that propelled the Arctic Monkeys into worldwide superstardom. With singles like “Do I Wanna Know?” and “R U Mine?” it sounded like the group had finally mastered the sludgier sound they’d been chasing since their transition with Humbug. Combining garage rock riffs, R&B rhythms and irresistible hooks allowed AM to become one of the Monkey’s most successful projects to date: topping the charts in over a dozen countries and becoming one of the UKs best-selling vinyl albums of the decade. Five years later, the group’s following record would take one giant leap forward. But to where? Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is the Arctic Monkeys like you had never heard them before. Trading in their arena-sized anthems for a sci-fi inspired, jazz-lounge, concept album. It’s an evolution almost no one saw coming. As a result, it would divide the fandom, being their most polarizing and weirdest record yet. But few bands today are this brave or ambitious -- and a few years out, it’s finally time to admit: Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is the Arctic Monkeys’ Misunderstood Masterpiece. ------------------------------- #Middle8 #ArcticMonkeys This video is sponsored by CuriosityStream Written, voiced and edited by Frank Furtado Additional Music by Matthew McClelland
