The lyrics on Arctic Monkeys' new record Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino sound like Alan Partridge

The countdown to one of this year's most anticipated albums is finally over. Arctic Monkeys have reappeared, in a smoke cloud bigger than ever, with their new album.

Despite the five year hiatus since last release AM, Sheffield's biggest export have taken their time to come up with the bizarrely named release, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino.

With song titles such as "Batphone", "The Ultracheese", and "The World's First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip", a quick glimpse at the tracklist is all you need to start unpacking the similarities between Alan Partridge and Alex Turner's lyrics.

But as you look deeper into the songs, that's when the questions of whether Alan Partridge wrote the new Arctic Monkeys record actually begins.

Is Alan Partridge just Alex Turner stuck in a parallel universe after getting sick of being an Arctic Monkey? All we really do know is that their new album, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, is out now via Domino.
