When I first listened to Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino I absolutely hated it beyond words, I was so sad and angry at the change from the cool Rock & Roll style they had in AM. But then I gave it a chance and I swear the more you listen to it and the more you understand the meaning of it, the lyrics and the theme it tries to create you realize it's a Masterpiece. An absolute Masterpiece. That album is something more mature and deeper that requires a bit of time to grow on you. But when it does it's really something else I promise. Alex you're a bloody genius mate, much love 🖤

This man has my deepest respect. As someone with Aspergers and ADHD, I relate a lot to Alex. Now I’m not sure if he actually has either of those diagnoses, but I feel a commonality at some level. The awkwardness, long pauses, and masked humbleness. Tranquility base has been my mental escape from harsher days for some years now. Wish I could thank him.
@khunii2188 Жыл бұрын
I also feel the same when I see Alex in interviews. I mean, here is a guy who writes fabulous lyrics and times the words well in his songs, but on the other hand here is the same guy struggling for words while speaking in a casual interview. It's like he's on the spectrum and yet he's still not. Really intriguing.

I love how real he seems in this video. It’s like you just popped in for a visit and wanted to ask some questions and he sat there and answered them. It did make ma laugh a lot. Especially when his eyes get wide (rubbing his eye is a nervous tick maybe) and every time he says the name of the French studio he sounds like he’s being sarcastic. It’s hilarious. Can’t wait to see them in my city. Yes, the new album has a completely different vibe and sound that I was NOT expecting but as I’ve been listening to it I’ve sort of slipped into the mindset that they were in while making the record. It’s also, in my opinion, more mature and like they’re growing up and moving away from certain aspects of their old life that we glimpsed from the old lyrics.

It's really interesting when you go through those old videos (like 2006 and so) where the whole AM were small cute beans, kind of surprised by the success. Then the Humbug era, later on SIAS with bikers, greaser hairdo and leather jackets, going into coked up (describing my feeling of it, not necessarily intoxication but then what do I know, it wouldn't change the way I listen to the music anyway) badass AM album... Not to leave out TLSP2 and Alex's flamboyant stage alter-ego. How such great changes can happen so fast, in music, style, the way a person talks and performs on stage. This interview seems like the sincerest one since around 2011. As if Alex tried these different personas, found out it's really not all that great and sort of came back around :)

Based on what I've gathered through his words, it would appear that it's becoming more and more difficult for the band to develop things that interest them all musically.
