Alex Turner and gang are back with their fifth studio record, AM! Almost a decade into their career, Arctic Monkeys has captured the immaturity and aimlessness of youth in their latest effort. Starting from the first track, ‘Do I Know You?’ to ‘I Wanna be Yours’, the boys show a knack for blending hip-hop bravado into a rock record without selling their soul for mainstream sonic success. Evidently, Arctic Monkeys is the best export from Britain right now and they’re indeed one of the more interesting bands of the last decade.
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
