Arctic Monkeys – ‘Humbug’

Co-produced by Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age, the album was wholly recorded in the United States. Homme-produced tracks recorded in Los Angeles and the Mojave Desert alongside New York recordings produced – as per the second album – by James Ford, who also produced the album The Age of the Understatement by Turner’s side-project The Last Shadow Puppets.  Early soundbites of tracks from the album appeared in the band’s periodical video diary on YouTube.
