Arctic Monkeys have shared the first taster of their new album 'The Car', 'There'd Better Be a Mirrorball'.

Their first new song in four years, it arrives alongside a video directed by frontman Alex Turner.

The track takes a vibe that shares many thematic touchpoints with their previous album 'Tranquillity Base Hotel & Casino'. With Turner in prime crooning form, it's a lush, sweeping track that really comes into its own for the climax.

'The Car' is set for release on 21st October via Domino. It was produced by James Ford and recorded at Butley Priory in Suffolk, La Frette in Paris, and RAK Studios in London.

News of the band's forthcoming full-length was first announced in a new interview with The Big Issue, which you can read online here.
