May 14, 2018 Arctic Monkeys By Christopher Roberts

Arctic Monkeys released a new album, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, last Friday via Domino. They didn’t share any advance music ahead of the album, so fans got to discover the whole album for the first time upon its release. But “Four Out of Five” has now emerged as the album’s first single. The band performed it last Thursday on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and now they have shared a video for the song. Ben Chappell and Aaron Brown directed the clip, which was mainly shot on location at Castle Howard in the band’s home county of Yorkshire, England. It has a kind of 1970s/early 1980s Stanley Kubrick vibe to it. Watch it below, followed by their upcoming tour dates.

Previously they shared a trailer for the album. It’s been five years since their last album, 2013’s AM, but it had been expected that they would be releasing a new one this year. Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is the British band’s sixth album, was recorded in Los Angeles, Paris, and London, and was produced by James Ford and the band’s own Alex Turner.
