AM

AM is the fifth studio album by the English rock band Arctic Monkeys, released on 6 September 2013 through Domino Recording Company. It was produced by longtime collaborator James Ford and co-produced by Ross Orton at Sage & Sound Recording in Los Angeles and Rancho De La Luna in Joshua Tree, California. The album was promoted by the singles "R U Mine?", "Do I Wanna Know?", "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?", "One for the Road", "Arabella", and "Snap Out of It". It features guest appearances by Josh Homme, Bill Ryder-Jones, and Pete Thomas. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of genres, including psychedelic rock, blues rock, hard rock, heavy metal, desert rock, R&B, funk and soul, AM notably marks Arctic Monkeys' first venture into a hip hop-influenced sound. The band took a different approach to recording the album in comparison to their previous album, Suck It and See, with more emphasis on creating a "studio album" according to frontman Alex Turner. The band incorporated new instruments on the album, including the Hohner Guitaret, celeste, and vintage drum machine. Thematically, the album concerns frustration surrounding tainted romance, sex and loneliness.
