Arctic Monkeys recently announced touring plans, which made it seem like 2018 would officially be the year that we get a followup to 2013’s great AM, and now we know for sure. Their sixth album is called Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino and it comes out May 11 via Domino (pre-order). Frontman Alex Turner co-produced the album with Simian Mobile Disco’s James Ford (who has contributed to every Arctic Monkeys album and produced or co-produced all except their debut). That’s a picture of the artwork above, and you can see the tracklist and pic of the silver LP below. The band also released an album trailer, which has a very short clip of new music. Check it out below.
The band’s tour includes a sold-out NYC show on July 24 at Forest Hills Stadium, and headlining appearances at Lollapalooza, Osheaga, and Firefly. All dates are listed below.
