Arctic Monkeys – Warp Speed Chic (Full Film)

Director: Ben Chappell

"After spending a year documenting Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino I wanted to try and pull it all together in a short film. I spent a few weeks with the band in France documenting the recording process with my 16mm camera in September 2017. At that point I was still only hearing bits and pieces of the tunes as they were being recorded. Nearly a year later, I was on stage with them in Lyon France, shooting some of those same tunes. When the film came back from the lab I put the live songs next to my shots of them recording and found it to be quite nice. With that as a starting point, I then used James Ford's instrumental mixes of the album and I put an assortment of the images we created for this album overtop, giving a glimpse into the last year and the full progression of Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino." - Ben Chappell

    Stunning documentary that no one else unfortunately saw.
  • @frankwoods987
    How can something feel so old and futuristic at the same time
  • @willmonham8766
    It’s really sad that people called this album pretentious for going in a new direction. Its style was a long time coming. Since humbug, their speed has been slowing and their style maturing - the latest product of their progression is this lyrical masterpiece.
  • @gibsterzz
    the ultracheese was so incredibly underrated and most definitely one of their best songs yet. i said what i said
  • @nevalop
    how many talents do you have? Alex:yes
  • @cecivs
    This is like watching an old documentary from an old band during their best years which no longer releases new music because some of their members have died but, in the end, you are living at the same time as all of them and do have the chance to see and hear them live and not only from a screen.
  • Why is no one talking about how great Golden Trunks sounds with those 80s horror film synths?
  • This video made me deeply nostalgic for something I have never experienced.
  • @aninhamft
    This film makes me want a full instrumental only version of tbhc
  • @Selome
    This was so short. I could watch this for 3 hours straight.
  • Kinda sad that I didn't get into Arctic Monkeys sooner, but honestly I'm just happy to have heard them at all
  • It’s a shame that the monkeys lost some recognition and popularity when they released this album as viewing it being created is like this is like watching a magnificent painting being slowly painted. Then again, I guess popularity doesn’t matter and it’s more about the quality of music and in this case I believe that this album is one if not the best of Arctic monkeys. From the composition, lyrics, visuals and style of the album👌🏼
  • TBH&C is actually one of my favorite albums, it is a MASTERPIECE. What most people don't get is that this is meant to be listened to as an album from start to finish, not as a conjunction of single songs.

    For me, Arctic Monkeys is Arctic Monkeys. They're not like any other band, they don't resemble any other band, they're authentically them, Arctic Monkeys. And people need to stop speculating, thinking they know them, what 'style' they do. Bcoz the fact is, you don't know them, no matter what. They should do what they want, how they like, their own style, not to please anybody without feeling the need to prove anybody, to live up everyone else's expectations. And if anyone keeps complaining how this isn't 'them'/ its not their style or bluffing anything like they 'know' them. Then, maybe you might have to reconsider calling yourself a 'fan'?. 'They provoke you into something you're not, but still not liking the 'you' they've created' i personally think this is how human r nowadays. Never satisfied. Always thinking they 'know' but never actually try to understand and listen. This is my opinion, feel free to have yours.

    Tranquility Base Hotel+Casino is a masterpiece
  • @MatthewNash92
    this felt like a trip through a time machine watching the beatles or the stones make an album.... it's so refreshing to see a modern band that has received huge 'mainstream' success stay true and creative and not just start churning out 'sludge' as alex T would put it haha. one of the few greats of our time. people will look back on this video in years to come. what a cool bunch of dudes.
