Álbum Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino de Arctic Monkeys - Canciones

Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino

Reseña

El sexto álbum de estudio de Arctic Monkeys, "Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino" fue lanzado al mercado el 11 de mayo de 2018 por el sello Domino, cinco años después de su anterior trabajo, titulado "AM". Con producción de James Ford y Alex Turner, el álbum fue creado por el líder del grupo, Alex Turner, quien lo compuso con un piano en su casa de Los Angeles.

Este álbum de Arctic Monkeys supone un giro en el estilo musical de la banda, con un mayor protagonismo para el piano, menos uso de guitarras y piezas un tanto oscuras y con cierto misticismo en un álbum muy personal que fue valorado positivamente por la crítica ante lo arriesgado de la apuesta musical de la banda.

El primer sencillo del álbum, "Four Out of Five", fue lanzado el 13 de mayo de 2018. Compuesto por Alex Turner y con producción del propio Turner y del colaborador habitual en los últimos trabajos de la banda, James Ford, la canción es una pieza de glam rock, con letras sin mucho sentido que describen un puesto de tacos ubicado en la azotea de un hotel.

El vídeo musical que acompaña al sencillo fue dirigido por Ben Chappell y Aaron Brown y en él se puede ver a Alex Turner asumiendo las funciones de un director cinematográfico, mientras se ruedan varias escenas.

El segundo sencillo y que da título al álbum es el "Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino", lanzado el 23 de julio de 2018. El tema vino acompañado por un videoclip dirigido, al igual que el anterior, por Ben Chappell y Aaron Brown, con imágenes de un hotel con casino en el que supuestamente vive Alex Turner. En el vídeo podemos ver a Turner recorriendo las diferentes plantas del hotel y realizar funciones de recepcionista.

    [X]

    letra de Star Treatment

    I just wanted to be one of The Strokes
    Now look at the mess you made me make
    Hitchhiking with a monogrammed suitcase
    Miles away from any half-useful imaginary highway

    I'm a big name in deep space
    Ask your mates
    But golden boy's in bad shape
    I found out the hard way that
    Here ain't no place for dolls like you and me
    Everybody's on a barge

    Floating down the endless stream of great TV
    1984, 2019
    Maybe I was a little too wild in the 70s
    Rocket-ship grease down the cracks of my knuckles

    Karate bandana
    Warp speed chic
    Hair down to there
    Impressive moustache
    Love came in a bottle with a twist off cap
    Let's all have a swig and do a hot lap

    So who you gonna call?
    The Martini Police

    Baby that isn't how they look tonight
    Oh no
    It took the light forever
    To get to your eyes

    I just wanted to be one of those ghosts
    You thought that
    You could forget
    And then I
    Haunt you via the rear view mirror on a long drive
    From the back seat

    But it's alright
    Cause you love me
    And you recognize that it's ain't how it should be
    Your eyes are heavy and the weather's getting ugly
    So pull over
    I know the place

    Don't you know an apparition is a cheap date?
    What exactly is it you've been drinking these days?
    Jukebox in the corner, long Hot Summer
    They've got a film up on the wall
    And it's dark enough to dance
    What do you mean you've never seen Blade Runner?

    Maybe I was a little too wild in the 70s
    Back down to earth with a lounge singer shimmer
    Elevator down to my make believe residency
    From the honeymoon suite
    Two shows a day, four nights a week
    Easy money

    So who you gonna call?
    The Martini Police

    So who you gonna call?
    The Martini Police

    Baby that isn't how they look tonight
    It took the light
    Absolutely forever to get to your eyes

    And as we gaze skyward
    Ain't it dark early?
    It's the star treatment

    And as we gaze skyward
    Ain't it dark early?
    It's the star treatment

    It's the star treatment

    The star treatment

    letra de One Point Perspective

    Dancing in my underpants
    I'm gonna run for government
    I'm gonna form a covers band and all
    And back there by the Baby Grand
    Didn't Mr. Winter Wonderland
    Say: Come here kid, we really need to talk?
    Bear with me, man
    I lost my train of thought

    I fantasise and call it quits
    I swim with the economists
    And I get to the bottom of it for good
    By the time reality hits
    The chimes of freedom fall to bits
    The shining city on the fritz
    They come out of the cracks
    Thirsty for blood

    Oh, just as the apocalypse finally gets prioritised
    And you cry some of the hottest tears you ever cried
    Multiplied by five
    I suppose the singer must die

    Singsongs around the money tree
    This stunning documentary that no one else unfortunately saw
    Such beautiful photography, it's worth it for the opening scene
    I've been driving 'round listening to the score
    Or maybe, I just imagined it all
    I've played to quiet rooms like this before
    Bear with me, man
    I lost my train of thought

  3. American SportsVer letra 2:38

    letra de American Sports

    So when you gaze at planet earth from outer space
    Does it wipe that stupid look off of your face?
    I saw this aura over the battleground states
    I lost the money, lost the keys
    But I'm still handcuffed to the briefcase

    And I never thought, not in a million years
    That I'd meet so many Lolas
    Can I please have my money back?
    My virtual reality mask is stuck on Parliament Brawl
    Emergency battery pack just in time for my weekly chat with God on videocall

    Breaking news they take the truth and make it and fluid
    The trainer's explanation was accepted by the steward
    A montage of the latest ancient ruins
    Soundtracked by a chorus of you don't know what you're doing

    And I never thought, not in a million years
    That I'd meet so many Lolas

    And all of my most muscular regrets explode behind my eyes like
    American sports

    And I never thought, not in a million years
    That I'd meet so many Lolas

    letra de Golden Trunks

    Last night when my psyche's
    Subcommittee sang to me in its scary voice
    You slowly dropped your eyelids
    When true love takes a grip, it leaves you without a choice

    And in response to what you whispered in my ear
    I must admit, sometimes I fantasise about you too

    The leader of the free world
    Reminds you of a wrestler wearing tight golden trunks
    He's got himself a theme tune
    They play it for him as he makes his way to the ring

    And in response to what you whispered in my ear
    I must admit, sometimes I fantasise about you too

    In the daytime
    Bendable figures with a fresh new pack of lies
    Summat else to publicise
    I'm sure you've heard about enough

    So in response to what you whispered in my ear
    I'll be upfront, sometimes I fantasise about you too

    letra de Four Out Of Five

    Advertise in imaginative ways, start your free trial today
    Come on in, the water's lovely
    Look, you could meet someone you like
    During the meteor strike, it is that easy
    Lunar surface on a Saturday night
    Dressed up in silver and white
    With coloured Old Grey Whistle Test lights

    Take it easy for a little while
    Come and stay with us, it’s such an easy flight
    Cute new places keep on popping up
    Since the exodus, it's all getting gentrified
    I put a taqueria on the roof
    It was well reviewed, four stars out of five
    And that's unheard of

    Mr. Bridge and Tunnel on the Starlight Express
    The head of special effects in my mind’s eye
    Hokey Cokey with the opposite sex
    The things you try to forget
    Doesn't time fly?
    I'm in no position to give advice
    I don't want to be nice and you know that

    Take it easy for a little while
    Come and stay with us, it's such an easy flight
    Cute new places keep on popping up
    Around Clavius, it's all getting gentrified
    The Information-Action Ratio is the place to go
    And you will not recognise the old headquarters

    All the nights that never happened
    And the days that don't exist
    At the Information-Action Ratio
    Only time that we stop laughing
    Is to breathe or steal a kiss
    I can get you on the list for all the clubs
    I can lift you up another semitone

    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, it's such an easy flight
    Cute new places keep on popping up
    (Cute new places keep on popping up)
    Since the exodus, it’s all getting gentrified
    The Information-Action Ratio
    (The Information-Action Ratio)
    Is the place to go, four stars out of five

    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, now, it’s such an easy flight
    Cute new places keep on popping up
    (Cute new places keep on popping up)
    Around Clavius, it's all getting gentrified
    I put a taqueria on the moon (the Information-Action Ratio)
    It got rave reviews, four stars out of five

    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, four stars out of five
    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, four stars out of five

    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, four stars out of five
    Take it easy for a little while
    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Come and stay with us, four stars out of five

    (Take it easy for a little while)
    Four stars out of five

  8. Science FictionVer letra 3:06

    [X]

    letra de Science Fiction

    Religious iconography giving you the creeps?
    I feel rougher than a disco lizard tongue along your cheek
    The rise of the machines
    I must admit you gave me something momentarily
    In which I could believe
    But the hand of harsh reality’s un-gloved
    And it’s on its way back in to scoop you up
    But not on my watch

    I want to stay with you, my love
    The way some science fiction does

    Reflections in the silver screen of strange societies
    Swamp monster with a hard-on for connectivity
    The ascension of the cream
    Mass panic on a not too distant future colony
    Quantitative easing
    I want to make a simple point about peace and love
    But in a sexy way where it’s not obvious
    Highlight dangers and send out hidden messages

    The way some science fiction does
    The way some science fiction does

    I’ve got the world on a wire
    In my little mirror, mirror on the wall
    In the pocket of my raincoat
    So I tried to write a song to make you blush
    But I’ve a feeling that the whole thing
    May well just end up too clever for its own good
    The way some science fiction does

  9. She Looks Like FunVer letra 3:03

    letra de She Looks Like Fun

    One, two, three, four

    She looks like fun
    She looks like fun
    She looks like fun
    She looks like

    Smile like you've got a straw in something tropical
    I've got the party plugged right into my skull
    Wayne Manor, what a memorable N.Y.E

    (She looks like fun)
    Good morning
    (She looks like fun)
    Cheeseburger
    (She looks like fun)
    Snowboarding
    (She looks like)

    Finally, I can share with you through cloudy skies
    Every whimsical thought that enters my mind
    There ain't no limit to the length of the dickheads we can be

    (She looks like fun)
    Bukowski
    (She looks like fun)
    Dogsitting
    (She looks like fun)
    Screwballing
    (She looks like)

    Finally, there's a place where you can wag your tongue
    Baby, but why can't we all just get along?
    Dance as if somebody's watching, because they are

    No one's on the streets
    We moved it all online
    As of March
    I'm so full of shite
    I need to spend less time stood around in bars
    Waffling on to strangers all about martial arts
    And how much I respect them

    (She looks like fun)
    Key changes
    (She looks like fun)
    Re-thinking
    (She looks like fun)
    New order
    (She looks like fun)

    letra de Batphone

    I want an interesting synonym to describe this thing
    That you say we're all grandfathered in
    I'll use the search engine
    (We've got much to discuss)
    Too much to discuss over a bucket of balls
    I can recall the glow of your low beams

    It's the big night in Tinsel City
    Life became a spectator sport
    I launch my fragrance called Integrity
    I sell the fact that I can't be bought
    Have I told you all about the time that I got sucked into a hole
    Through a handheld device?
    I will flashback now and again, but I'm usually alright
    Thankfully, the process has been simplified
    Since the last time you tried

    I've recognized the glow of your low beams numerous times
    I'll be by the Batphone if you need to get a hold
    Making a selection, opening credits roll
    Panoramic windows looking out across your soul

    You go in through the door
    Vengeance trilogy wallpaper walls
    They have re-decorated it all
    They've changed all the lights and the bar's down the side

    I've recognized the glow of your low beams numerous times
    Through fairly opaque blinds in the sitting room
    Vehicles will pass by, but I know when it's you
    I'll be in a nose dive in my flying shoes
    Right behind your closed eyes like a memory from your youth
    I'll be by the Batphone if you need to get a hold
    Making a selection, opening credits roll
    Killer Pink Flamingos, computer controlled
    Panoramic windows looking out across your soul

  11. The UltracheeseVer letra 3:38

    letra de The Ultracheese

    Still got pictures of friends on the wall
    I suppose we aren't really friends anymore
    Maybe I shouldn't ever have called
    That thing friendly at all

    Get freaked out from a knock at the door
    When I haven't been expecting one
    Didn't that used to be part of the fun
    Once upon a time?

    We'll be there at the back of the bar
    In a booth like we usually were
    Every time there was a rocket launch
    Or some big event

    What a death I died writing that song
    From start to finish, with you looking on
    It stays between us, Steinway and his sons
    'Cause it's the Ultracheese

    Perhaps it's time that you went for a walk
    Dressed like a fictional character
    From a place they called America
    In the Golden Age

    Trust the politics to come along
    When you were just trying to orbit the Sun
    When you were just about to be kind to someone
    Because you had the chance

    I've still got pictures of friends on the wall
    I might look as if I'm deep in thought
    But the truth is I'm probably not
    If I ever was

    Oh, the dawn won't stop weighing a tonne
    I've done some things that I shouldn't have done
    But I haven't stopped loving you once
