Oct 23, 2022alex turner please marry me you are the only one who can cure me now i love you
-
Oct 22, 2022Amazing from start to finish. No skips coming from a Monkeys stan; one of the best albums written by Alex Turner
-
Oct 21, 2022A great epic jump from their previous album, the orchestra on this album is beautiful and really compliments the band and most importantly Alex Turner's vocals which have taken to a new style which I'm every part here for! Congratulations AM
-
Oct 21, 2022This album is a masterpiece.
Alex songwriting is definitely getting better and better with each album. -
Oct 21, 2022Not their best nor their worst. But it is a soft rock album that leans more on pianos and has elements from AM and TBHC.
-
Oct 21, 2022Far the best album from the band. Perfect mix, perfect sound, perfect concept
-
Oct 21, 2022amamos a los artic monkeys, el mejor album de hoy, SIN SKIPS, we stan this men

Oct 24, 2022It's a cinematic musical feast. I am feeling so lucky to live in a time that such these pieces are created.
-
Nov 26, 2022Absolutely stunning. Unlike other bands that usually turn to pop to continue their run, Arctic monkeys have produced an amazing work of art, a masterpiece infact. The only band even close are Midnight Brewers.

Oct 21, 2022absolutely amazing. has a nice chill and relaxed vibe to it. i totally love it
-
Oct 21, 2022the mature sound that you can expect from a band that's always evolving. "whatever people say I am that's what I'm not" they warned us in their first album, it's that. They move in between genders and sounds like they own them and sounds right. Listen and enjoy the ride.

Oct 21, 2022Excelente!! Alex Turner sempre muito fiel à sua composição impecável! E a banda sempre mantendo um instrumental dos mais trabalhados da atualidade.
-
Oct 21, 2022Continuam sendo uma das melhores banda da indústria. Alex Turner sempre inovando na composição!!! Excelente
-
Oct 25, 2022I wasn't expecting The Car to be that good! No other modern band evolved so well like they did in my opinion. This album and AM are probably their best ones. Congrats guys!
-
Oct 22, 2022Just like the previous albums, it needs a view listens to really sink in. But their new album is again a masterpiece, especially the songs Body Paint, There'd Better be a Mirroball, Sculptures of Anything Goes and Big Ideas. Can't wait to see them perform it live.
-
Oct 21, 2022Precioso Álbum! No dejaba de pensar en el regreso de AM! Obsesionada con esta obra de arte!

Oct 21, 2022Another piece of art from Arctic Monkeys. Some will say that they miss the old rock they use to do. But when you’re this good at any type of sound you do, you have the right. The car has great tracks such highlights as There’s better be a mirrorball and Sculptures Of Anything Goes where the band has done their best work.
-
Oct 21, 2022AMEN. ICONICOS, REYES, TOTALMENTE TALENTOSOS, UN ALBUM SIN SKIPS. GRACIAS POR SALVARNOS DE ******

Oct 21, 2022this album really has a very authentic essence and a very well achieved end as well as an unbeatable musical production, in this album we can see the true talent of the arctic monkeys And specifically the talent of Alex Turner to be able to interpret these songs written by himself
-
Oct 22, 2022Listening to the album feels like a travel through many different chapters of a big story. Arctic Monkeys really knows how to set a mood. The evolution from era to era is amazing.
-
Oct 22, 2022Fantastic album to listen on a rainy night. Deep and mature. Sculptures of Anything Goes is one of the best songs ever written by Arctic Monkeys and, certainly, one of the best of the year.
-
Oct 22, 2022El álbum del año, de la mano de la mejor banda del planeta.
Tan innovador como sofisticado. Diferente a todos los álbumes anteriores.
Big Ideas, Jet Skis on the Moat y Body Paint mis canciones favoritas del disco. -
Oct 22, 2022Brilliant album, the way they manage to change their sound and still deliver it’s fantastic.
-
Oct 22, 2022The most nuanced and brilliantly mixed album of this band. It expands it's own areas of music in a gorgeous way. Unique album. Lyrics are mysterious but specific in a brilliant way that only Turner can find.
-
Oct 22, 2022Incrível, acompanho a banda a anos e essa habilidade de sempre se reinventar mantendo (e aumentando) a qualidade é muito admirável.
-
Oct 22, 2022The Car is incredible. It shows why Arctic Monkeys are considered one of the greatest modern bands. The evolution of the band can be noticed from the first song to the last. It may be a difficult album to digest for many just like what happened with TBHC but the quality and sophistication will place it as one of the best records of the band and the decade.

Oct 22, 2022Secuela de canciones fenomenal, representa excelente los sentimientos y transmite una emoción indescriptible. Sin duda alguna se salieron de la zona de confort del rock indie que manejaron en los otros álbumes, pero suena espectacular.
-
Oct 22, 2022Se siente mucho la madurez de la banda en el álbum, es muy bueno en cuanto al sonido y la letra una complementación increíble.
-
Oct 22, 2022Every track is a sigh. I liked the prominence of Alex's voice in this new album. Good sensations.
-
Oct 22, 2022This album is absolutely incredible! One of their best. Deserves all the attention and more!
-
Oct 22, 2022This album is a complete masterpiece from start to end. These guys know how to create an absolute work of art!

Oct 24, 2022Este álbum es buenísimo. Y si no te gusta es porque sos sordo u odias a la banda porque no hacen la misma música que hace 15 años.
-
Oct 24, 2022excellent. absolutely, brilliantly, **** excellent. arctic monkeys did it again — without giving a **** about people’s opinions and the album’s success. i love them!
-
Oct 24, 2022Similar to tranquility base hotel & casino, but definitely a more mature album, you can tell that every detail was polished before recording which makes it great, the violins and the guitar solos give a different experience than what you are used to.
-
Oct 24, 20221st listen - it sounds different
2nd listen - hmmm
3rd listen - oh yeah
4th listen - holy **** this is amazing -

Apr 17, 2023sem duvida o melhor álbum do arctic monkeys. a sensação trazida pelo instrumental é incomparável, principalmente a música "Hello You", aquele violino no fundo deixa tudo mais profundo e magico

Oct 22, 2022Its a no skip for me, I'm a fan of their later sound though, I can see why those who like their earlier works might not enjoy it as much or at all. I think it's a matter of taste, if you like this sound, it's VERY good. The melodies, lyrics, strings and the way Alex sings, give it a dreamy vibe that's like butter to ears really.

Oct 22, 2022It's the Best of the Monkeys, the first five it's humbug or some dark rock alternative
-
Nov 2, 2022A great addition to the Arctic Monkeys' discography, with its orchestral elements and David Bowie-influenced vocals.
-

Aug 3, 2023Took a while to creep up on me, but when it did... it's probably their best album.

adjective
possessing outstanding quality or superior merit; remarkably good. -
Oct 22, 2022A vintage mix of funk, psych, lounge and art rock makes "The Car" one of the year's more interesting albums, even if it only holds 37 minutes of Arctic Monkeys.
-
Oct 23, 2022on god the album was life changing it was so jazz blues so good honestly i was so calm upon listening
-
Oct 24, 2022Great album for those willing to listen, but if you're only a fan of this band because of AM, you're going to struggle

Oct 22, 2022you have to feel the feelings in order to understand the beauty of this album. surely it's not for everyone. glad i can get it. an amazing album, love how arctic monkeys always improve and put out something new. people will get this album YEARS LATER, it sounds so timeless.
-
Nov 18, 2022I think it's a blended album, all the songs fit together as a whole package. a great listen.
-
Dec 11, 2022The band manages to mature as its members with each album, and not unlike the new Arctic monkeys album shows this perfectly with songs that are not so commercial but with a lot of quality
-
Oct 21, 2022Very mature album, but I think 'Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino' was far more interesting. Lyrics are top-level, but the music doesn't sound that engaging, at least on first listening. Let's see if this becomes a grower.

Oct 21, 2022Arctic Monkeys have finally found a well-balanced sound, that has a clear concept.
-
Nov 22, 2022This is not the better Arctic Monkeys album (after "AM", it's pretty hard to beat that record). But it isn't bad. It's better than "Tranquility Base", but not comparing to "AM", "Favourite worst", "Whatever People", et cetera. But, in the end, this don't really look like an Arctic Monkeys album, just like and Indie Pop/rock album.
-
Oct 21, 2022Artic Monkeys return eyes set on continuing the captivating left turn they risked in 2018 but now with a sophisticated lush string form. It's smooth and concise allowing you to pass through each song like listening to a movie's soundtrack. Turners voice is a smooth riveting baritone that guided by all the right words flourishes in interesting ways. Arguably amongst there best
-
Nov 7, 2022Si a este álbum mamador, le ponen el nombre de otra banda nadie diría que es un buen álbum...aburrido, música de elevador, un título insulso y una portada mala....no todo lo que es aburrido es arte señores
-
Oct 24, 2022the problem with this album is that it just doesn't match Alex's style, the past 2 albums have been like this and although I liked tranquillity, I didn't like it as much as the first 5. However, I really like that they are experimenting with new styles and ways to produce these tracks. Don't get me wrong, I love monkeys a lot, but I wish we could have a new album with the same hype as the past 5.
-
Oct 26, 2022Parece que o album foi feito só pra ter coisa nova, não chega a ser ruim mas é bem generico, quem gosta da banda acredito que va gostar do album, mas não me agradou muito, achei legal porém esquecivel

Nov 9, 2022Sounds okay until you pay attention to the lame lyrics.
All the songs sound the same and Alex Turner has little variety in the way he sings throughout the album. AM is so much better. -

Oct 22, 2022Alex Turner going full on lounge mode. The most boring album I have listened to this year.
-

-
Oct 25, 2022Bad, pretentious and boring. Not worth it, its like david bowie but worse .
-
Oct 26, 2022Songs sound all the same - the tin hat being a song about literally watching paint dry. Not an enjoyable album.
-
Dec 15, 2022Experimental and unpleasant music topped by Alex Turner's extremely repulsive vocals.

Nov 7, 2022The Car is a slick mover, immaculately appointed and often beautiful. What it’s driving at, though, can feel naggingly elusive.
-
Oct 31, 2022There is one salient, nailed-on fact about this enigmatic album, however. It’s how easily its most anthemic cuts will slot into those revved-up Arctic Monkey festival set lists.
-
Oct 26, 2022Turner seems to be angling for atmosphere, not hooks, with his melodies. The free-floating croon helps The Car amiably drift in space but it also highlights how the record could use a couple of elements to bring it back to earth.
