    The Car is the seventh studio album by English rock band Arctic Monkeys, released on 21 October 2022 by Domino Recording Company. It was written by band frontman Alex Turner in his Los Angeles home. It was produced in Suffolk, Paris and London by frequent Arctic Monkeys collaborator James Ford, alongside frequent guest musicians Tom Rowley, Loren Humphrey and Tyler Parkford. It was arranged by Bridget Samuels and Turner. Drummer Matt Helders took the picture on the album cover, which depicts a white car in an empty car park. Its title refers to said cover and the abundance of references to vehicles in the lyrics.
    The Car builds upon the sound from the band's previous album, Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino (2018). It features a wide array of genres that include orchestral rock, lounge pop, baroque pop, and funk, as well as elements of jazz. It also draws influence from soul music, electronic music, glam rock, bossa nova, traditional pop and vintage film soundtracks.
    The album has been promoted by the singles, "There'd Better Be a Mirrorball", "Body Paint" and "I Ain't Quite Where I Think I Am".
    In the United Kingdom, The Car and Taylor Swift's Midnights are competing for the number one spot on the UK Albums Chart. As of the first three days of the tracking week, the albums have sold 105,000 and 140,000 units respectively.

    Tranquility Base is one of the biggest growers of all time. What sounded like uninteresting elevator music to me at first, over time literally rewires the neuron connections in your brain until you get familiar with the out-of-the-norm song structures, and it becomes so so good. Literally took almost 2 years for the whole album to hit, but the pandemic truly transformed the context of the entire project for me. There is a reason people get it tattood, it absolutely resonates very hard once it sticks.

      So crazy, went into first moments of disappointment and shock listening to Tranquility and then it moved more and more into one of the best albums ever spot. Tranquility set the pathway for the Car, mirrorball excited me right away and again, all other songs keep creeping in my heart and brain. When i feel like listening to amazing music now, i pick up ‚Car‘… and it even keeps growing. Just to make a point here, i listen and collect music for centuries, i probably listened to zillion albums, Tranquillity and Car made Top 15 and still moving up. Time really shows the quality of songs, AM was amazing but here we got to the next level… leaving me just plain ‚happy‘

    This seems to be the score of their journey as a band. Their sound changes as they grow, and I appreciate that they really don’t give a shit if fans don’t like it lol. They are putting out what they want to put out and I’m here for it. I personally love this kind of sound in music, and I love their older stuff as well (I’m on a balaclava kick rn).
    Yeah the lyrics I don’t always understand, but sometimes I feel like Alex isn’t always trying to make a point. I think he’s finding how words flow together, rather than making meaning? Idk but his lyricism makes me feel smart even though I have no idea wtf he’s talking abt haha

    it hapened the same with me after I listened for the 1st time Perfect Sense, I felt a hollow at the end of the album which is really weird considering that the last song of each album is a banger which makes the conclusion for the album (IMO, I wanna be yours is the excepction to this), but after I read a lyrics of the song on Twitter which really caught my atention I came back to listen the song again. The lyrics are really sad telling of sucess, personal acomplishments and the realization that everything good must come to an end at some point. What a song, what an album... what a band.

    This album is so many good. Being a Brazilian fan of Arctic Monkeys, I am so happy with music Mr Schwartz. Have influence of Bossa Nova, a Brazilian Style of music. I liked Body Paint( especially the guitar solo), Sculptures of Anything Goes( is a work of art), Big idea( seems a gorgeous film song) and Hello you ( the riffs are so good). The voice of Alex is soo good, a great voice. Piano and lyrics are good too. And the Orchestra is the cherry of cake... In resume: The álbum is a work of art.

    I really like this album and it almost kinda bums me out when people don't like it. I feel people are expecting/wanting a new AM or something that is more rock-heavy, and if you're expecting that, this album will be a bit of a tough pill to swallow. But if you go in to it with an open mind and don't expect anything, which it seems nowadays is a good thing to do when the monkeys come out with an album, you'll find some amazing songs and a great experience. Plus, it almost seems a cool-like opinion nowadays to say you 'can't get through an album of the monkeys' or something.
    Normally I'm just a spectator and I don't react to videos. But I just have to say that you guys are great. Seeing you two have fun with these albums and spending time together is amazing to see and put's my relationship with my dad in a whole new perspective. The bit at the end where Kevin says it was fun spending spending time with Connor and listening to music together really hit me as a beautiful moment. Keep it up you guys, I really really really enjoy these videos and I'm glad to see that you are too.

    I seriously can’t describe how in love I am with this album. I love the fact that Alex writes in such a way that leaves you wanting to dig deeper into the songs just so you can figure out the metaphors and the messages he’s trying to send to the listeners.
    “The Car” also does such a good job in establishing a certain mood. It’s nostalgic, reminiscent, and somehow regretful. I genuinely want to know what Alex’s mind looked like durning the writing process.
    Definitely a 10/10 album for me.
