It’s been five years since we last heard from the Arctic Monkeys. After touring in support of their fifth studio LP AM in 2013-2014, the band members redirected their focuses to side-projects. Flash forward to present day, and they’re back in full swing with their sixth album–officially due on May 11th–and a full tour schedule ahead.
Next month, Arctic Monkeys will release their highly-anticipated, 11-track LP, entitled Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, marking the band’s first new release in five years. You can get a preview of the new album in the teaser video below:

Additionally, Arctic Monkeys have confirmed 10+ dates in the United States and Canada so far, with more dates expected to be added soon. While the newly added North American dates are scattered across the next four months, in between their previously scheduled European dates, we’re keeping our fingers crossed for more opportunities to see the English rock band live in action.
