This mix of Jazz timing with a Rock instrumental twist showed a change in the band’s vision of what they wanted to produce. Adding onto the stylistic change in sound, the lyrics paint a picture of a technologically obsessed world, blinded from the reality that Earth is deteriorating every day. The album gained worldwide popularity, and AOTY (a website that collects reviews from both regular citizens and the godly professional reviewers) gave it a 72/100 on Critic Score and a 72/100 on User Score. When the album was first released, many listeners did not enjoy it, seeing it as a random switch from what was working in the past (Garage Rock). However, due to the constantly adapting and shifting world with new tech (especially AI), many see it as a masterpiece, due to its unique story. The hype train continued to grow. The roots of this weird plant would dig deeper into the more “deeper cuts” of the band’s discography (compared to basic, BORING listeners who listen to “Do I Wanna Know”). 

Altogether, it does not matter how much tastes change in music. As people grow, so do their views and that applies to music, as well. With the Arctic Monkeys, there was once a hate train that has now blossomed into a “love train”. It cannot be mistaken, though. Their latest album The Car is straight garbage, an absolute snoozer.
