So, given Arctic Monkeys aren’t giving us any official previews of their new album ‘Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino’ before it’s out on 11th May, we’re going to have to invade the Instagram feeds and Youtube channels of their fans to find out what to expect.
That starts now, as the band make their return to the live arena. They played their first show back last night (2nd May) at San Diego’s The Observatory, and offered up a fair slice of new material.
New tracks aired included ‘One Point Perspective’, ‘American Sport’, ‘Four Out Of Five’ and ‘She Looks Like Fun’ – the latter two featuring guest appearances from Tame Impala’s Cameron Avery.
You can check out footage from the show below.
