The Big Mates discuss adventures, break ups, expectations, and Humbug by Arctic Monkeys.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their exploration of the career of Arctic Monkeys by diving into the band's divisive, murky, and spooky third album.

They discuss the writing and recording of the album, explore the overall themes and sound, and (barely) begin their track-by-track analysis, exploring the composition, tone, lyrics, meaning, and context for each song in turn - all from three differing perspectives, from being deeply into music and analysis, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between!

They also find time to remember their own reactions to the album when it was released, the public perception of the change in sound, and try to figure out which genre of rock is most appropriate to describe the vibe.

What kind of questions should art pose? Does Jamie have a beard? Are the Tings Tings Lucas’ quicksand? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?

Our next episode is out next week, Monday August 25th, and will continue the deep-dive into Humbug!
