Last month, in an interview with Line Of Duty star and Arctic Monkeys super fan Martin Compston for The Big Issue magazine, Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner said the band no longer feels the need to "prove yourself as much" after two decades of making music.
Reflecting on the band’s time in the spotlight, the singer and songwriter, 36, said: "It probably does feel about 20 years ago, but that’s an interesting one, isn’t it? Because sometimes you feel like you could walk through a door and be right back there.
"I’m trying to scratch a little bit of that feeling here on the new record. It feels like a long time ago, but it can be right behind you. Something reminds you and it takes you back.
"There’s a lyric on Hello You that says, 'I could pass for 17 if I just get a shave and catch some zzzzs’. Maybe that’s barking up that tree a little? Well, a lot.
"I’m thinking about going to the snooker club with my granddad and it feels like we were just there – but, wait a minute, there’s all this time in between."
