Review: Arctic Monkeys at Emirates Old Trafford 'a greatest hits set and treat for everyone'
There are few question marks remaining over Arctic Monkeys and their place among the best British acts of all time, at this stage. Few bands reinvent themselves to the extent that they have across their discography and fewer still manage to pull it off. That said, after AM marked a second peak in their popularity back in 2013, the subsequent releases Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino and most-recently The Car have been a bit too leftfield or subdued for some.
Not to be outdone, Arctic Monkeys take to a sunny stage with and from Brianstorm through to A View From the Afternoon, it looks as if they've every intention of showing off their very highest peaks. There's little in the way of standard stadium show bells and whistles - just tunes and Alex Turner's ever-so-slightly divisive onstage persona.
While some of the new material hasn't landed with everyone, it speaks volumes about their confidence in those tracks that the magnificent Body Paint is chosen to close the main set rather than the perhaps more obvious 505 which comes before it. Side-by-side, they showcase Turner's lyricism at its finest, despite coming 15 years apart.
