While the Alex Turner-led quartet are miles away from the band that sung about nights out in Sheffield, they have maintained commercial and critical success worldwide. The suave post-punk revival act have headlined Glastonbury twice, and performed an iconic set at the 2012 London Olympics. Their 2018 lounge pop album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, was praised for deviating from the bands guitar-driven sound.
