Album Review: Arctic Monkeys - The Car

“Undeniably, he is a master of this tone, both lyrically and vocally, and the arrangements on The Car do a fine job of reflecting his reminiscences with a murky warmth that’s like looking through the mists of time. But, for an album that consistently stays in this tone, it’s lacking that deeper emotionality and instrumental innovation needed to make it memorable.”
