| Arctic Monkeys Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino |
Pretentious, half asleep, nearly lifeless,
self-aware, introspective, postmodern, lost,
borders on "it sucks cuz that's the point
maaannnn", forward thinking, soulful, and
contradictory. It's the story of a nostalgic
lounge singer stuck in a spiritual conundrum
on the moon. None of that really matters
though; this is the first time I've been
bothered to care about an Arctic Monkeys album
which is ironic considering Tranquility Base
Hotel and Casino, more than ever, sounds like
they don't give a flying fuck what anyone
thinks. Easily the most interestingly flawed
and important album of 2018. |

Hate to say it but Fantano is on the money here. This is a wonderfully produced pop album with
excellent lyrics and songwriting, and a bonafide song of the year contender in Boys At School. I
hear some Kate Bush and Mike Patton influences which are never
a bad thing. Probably the best album of the year. |
