for all that the am album gets parodied and reduced to being "just about sex and clubbing" i think it's interesting how the album pokes fun at Itself for this subject matter. it's exemplified in no. 1 party anthem where it subverts the expectation that it would be, yknow, a party-worthy rock anthem like the rest of the album is up to that point. but even as it creates some distance between itself and its subject matter by being relatively slow and melancholy it is also very sincere in how it paints a portrait, almost a love letter to clubbing and the desperate 20-something year old search for connection. in characterising the club and the people in it as shallow in a self aware manner it also gives it depth by empathising with these shallow pursuits and showing how that shallowness reveals the very human underlying desire for connection and distraction from inner turmoil. idk i just think people do it a real disservice dismissing it. it's very much alex turner continuing to demonstrate his ability to reveal the romance and tragedy in our mundane everyday life
