First time listening to TBHC: "Ok ok, this sounds fine" Second time: "This is great, theres some lyrical shit right there" After third: "I STILL GOT PICTURES OF FRIENDS ON THE WAAAAAALL"
This isn't an album you can appreciate by just listening to it once. It kinda has to grow into you, and that will take you more than a couple listenings. Although it is a controversial album that's going to deceive long time [rock] fans of the Arctic Monkeys, it will definitely be appreciated by open-minded people that listened to it without any expectations whatsoever.
@@ravnexx8354 Hate this album personnaly (The Muse's one), for me there is no doubt that Arctic monkeys' one is so far above. But hey ! Nobody has the perfect taste (except for Brad cause he's brad).
@@artexmusic8367 I like both Muse's one and AM's one :) Muse is a little bit pop but considering how much great music they created for nearly 20 years I didn't expect anything special but I was nicely suprised :)
It was quite hard to get from their previous albums, even from AM. But now I just feel like this is one of their best, not intended to be catchy and pop-py like AM, but much better. Prefer TBHC over Humbug and Suck It and See too.
one thing that sucks about this album is that it’s so unique that when you just can’t get enough of the 11 tracks you can’t find similar songs let alone albums 😭😭
I’ve been listening to this album very often since it came out. Wasn’t sure when I first heard it, but after a few listens I’ve been really enjoying the vibe.
I don't get why some people are saying this is not a good album. This is a good album. It just takes time to get to you. Some lyrical themes are really good. And so many references. If you are complaining "oh there is not enough guitars" then let me tell you it definitely has it, listen closely. Just try to appreciate the writing it's very detailed.
I honestly think this album wasn't made for a young audience, it seems like this album is geared towards getting older and looking back at how simple things were, a lot of the lyrics are about the past sung in this ballroom style that feels eerily empty.
@@luciamariaortegaflores4529 I think i worded my initial comment badly, I see a lot of the themes to this album being a sad longing for the youthful days when people were more sociable and didnt have bills or spouses, you're so free then but you dont really know to cherish it in those moments, and by the time you do come to appreciate it, it's been gone for a long long time. I think that's a tough concept to fully understand as a young person, not that it's impossible. Lol reply to this comment in a decade or so and lmk if I'm right or wrong. (Also hope this doesn't come off condescending that's not my intention)
I like the song, but from that one snippet of the instrumental electric piano version (from BBC special credits) I feel like it could've been done much better and much more fitting for the album. The harmonies are great, but the fuzzy guitar, while cool, kind of gives it a wrong vibe IMO. And the whole thing kind of hides the beautiful chords and shows just the riff chord progression, which is kinda toxic-sounding. The end is one of the best moments on this glorious album tho.
I feel the same about Batphone. It's some kind of different level music, takes me to a strange place, goosebumps, the whole shooting match. Extraordinary song.
This album is just so good to get high to honestly. Like i dont even care what hes singing as long as it sounds goodd. This man really sung "Good morning, Cheeseburger" and I was like damnnnn..... cheeseburgeer.
That is odd that he claimed it was a first listen when that video came out. I dont know why he would be lying here saying he listened to something he didnt listen to. But also the first impression seemed genuine. So I dont know.
He said on a recent stream that if he listened to an album years ago and doesn't remember anything from it, it counts as first impression, I don't agree a lot with that statement but I guess it's fine
In an interview Alex has said that he always saw old records like a place you would go to, that's the inspiration for the name and tranquility base is the nickname for the lunar landing, it gives you an idea of what he was trying to go for, love this album so much
This is a FANTASTIC album by the way. When it first came out in 2018, I listened to this album everyday for approximately a year & a half & still continues to be in my daily mix
I remember that at the first impression I didn’t like golden trunks either, but listening to the album continuously made me like it a lot, specially because of the transition from TBHC to it, and the bassline is very good, they could’ve very well leave it without bass but I think adding it to it is a BIG plus.
Neutral Milk Motel it's personal opinion humbug have an amazing vibe, amazing intrumentals, and the lyrics are amazing too a lot of people think on that way, just that
Fun fact: "Tranquility Base" was the name of a lunar land site to establish a lunar base back during the Apollo era. What I love about that fact is how all the songs have a lightweight sound to them, as well as all the parallel subjects between that era and the ones talked about during this era. The music has a completely different sound from their other albums, having more of a jazzy tone much like what was more popular in that era.
TRANQUILITY BASE HOTEL & CASINO PERSONAL RANKING: 11.- Golden Trunks 10.- The World's First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip 9.- American Sports 8.- Bathphone 7.- The Ultracheese 6.- She Looks Like Fun 5.- Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino 4.- Star Treatment 3.- Fout Out Of Five 2.- One Point Perspective 1.- Science Fiction
My first take on it was I thought it was boring and uninteresting and put me to sleep (literally it was night and I listened to it while dozing off). But ever since the release I've been listening to it about twice a day and there's such an interesting sound to this that it's become infectious. The jazz feel is my favorite part and how I feel like I'm in some hotel in the 50s. I'm looking forward to how this album will age. Your content is god tier
I felt the same way dude. Definitely nothing I was expecting, after a few listens I really got into it. The melodies and lyrics on some of the tracks are brilliant. I think people just need to give it some time and keep an open mindset and they will realize how enjoyable this album is.
The same for me. First time I heard the album I was sceptical about it. But after a few listens I really got into it. I think it will age very well and it will be considered one of the best in a year or so
the most amazing thing about this album is even though they changed their whole sound in this project they are still arctic monkeys. Their signature remains
I feel like every album they make is just a variation of the first album, like you can tell they took those formulas and just change the vibe and style and aesthetics to make something new
YES I was just about to ask you to review/react to Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino! Thank you. I don't always agree with your taste in music, but I love the videos regardless.
My interpretation is the following: I just wanted to be one of The Strokes (he's talking about what made him want to make music) Now look at the mess you made me make (now look at how far we have come) Hitchhiking with a monogrammed suitcase (I think for monogrammed he means the monogram "AM" as he now has all the experience that he gained in all these years) Miles away from any half-useful imaginary highway (I think the highway is a metaphor for all the popular genres at the moment, and this last album is certainly very far from them)
Alex Chipka honestly I dont understand that knock on them. Yes they are HEAVILY influenced by zeppelin and essentially took their sound, but they do it justice. The fact that they are being compared to zeppelin shows and have a similar sound shows they are making good music. Is it zeppelin level? No. But 70% zeppelin is still rly good. Even Robert plant has praised them
Good Music i just wish they’d do something original with that blues rock sound. They’re a talented bunch of guys but they’re not doing anything new, they’re essentially hashing out old sounds from the 70s. We can reminisce about the 70s all we want but if rock wants to move forward it needs something new. Jack white did the blues rock sound for his new album but expanded on it and experimented, and it was Great. I wish they’d do something like that, because the whole “sounds like zeppelin” thing is gonna get old really fast, they should start to branch out more when their second album comes.
i just came from you're first listen of WPSIATWIN and according to this video you've already heard it before 2 years ago? Care to explain yourself Bradley ?
Somewhere in the WPSIATWIN comments section, he said "I heard this album before 2 years ago in the background and I gave it literally no attention. I have no memory of this album".
''I don't know what the hell he's talking about, but it sounds good'' my longest same ever listening to the album, anyway in my opinion is best than am
The entire vibe this album gives me is one of setting of a run down space age, it gives me the vibes of a mid hotel and casino on the moon, sort of like a lot of the space stuff atround titusville
Mate I feel like I could sit down and have a beer with you and discuss music for several hours uninterrupted. I had a very similar 1st experience. Trust me though, golden trunks is a grower. Brilliant vid, proper review. You know your stuff
I had the complete opposite reaction when I first heard Golden Trunks. I really enjoy the distorted guitar so that pulled me in but what really caught me and made me fall in love with it were the harmonies in the vocal part. It gave me goosebumps!
Believe it or not, even though I love Golden Trunks now, his reaction to it was identical to mine on first listen. The First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip still sounds like that to me now, so I'm giving it time.
wait, im confused, he says here that he's listened to AM and their debut album before but this video came out in 2018, those first reactions came out in 2020, hmmmm
Didn’t expect you to like it at all, but i am so glad you did! Personally i find it better and more cohesive than AM, and especially more interesting lyrically. Although the songs are a bit similar and slow, the composition is great, the vibe is entrancing and there are so many interesting details. Perfect length too, and the bass awesome.
First time listening to TBHC: "Ok ok, this sounds fine"
Second time: "This is great, theres some lyrical shit right there"
After third: "I STILL GOT PICTURES OF FRIENDS ON THE WAAAAAALL"
I was kind of indifferent the first listen and after hear it abunch afterwards, I'm planning a tattoo for the ultracheese
Exactly me 😂😂 I didn’t rate it at first but now it’s one of my favourite albums of all time

It was like Alex Turner stopped listening to David Bowie and just spun Scott Walker for a year straight before writing this.

Honestly I'm getting a bit of a Bowie feel from this album.
all the mentions of 1984, rockets, guess the singer must die...i'd say yes.
I get a Dire Straits feel as well
I dunno about the instrumentals, but alex is definitely channeling some bowie in the vocals.
Aye
primo especially on the title track omh
A lot of people don’t like this album, but I’m glad you like it too! It really takes you over with the sound of it.

“Half useful imaginary highway” he must use that David Bowie pick random words from newspaper writing technique
saw an interview where he said it was overheard conversations. four out of five was from that. pretty close. astute observation sir.

lyrically, TBHC is better.

Of course no
Just HUMBUG!
Like all albums my Arctic Monkeys I like TBH+C but humbug is my favorite album by far but that my change in later years but rn yes humbug Is the best
This is by far one of the most hated albums and one that I love the first time I heard it.

Yep, cause origin and absolution are their best albums.
Didn’t expect you to like it at all, but i am so glad you did! Personally i find it better and more cohesive than AM, and especially more interesting lyrically. Although the songs are a bit similar and slow, the composition is great, the vibe is entrancing and there are so many interesting details. Perfect length too, and the bass awesome.
Looking forward to you reviewing /dismantling /the new album.
Batphone was my favorite song on the album i love it
people just expected PM (AM 2) yet tranquility is far more better than AM. People hate Tranquility because it’s different lol
