Musical style and influences
The band's music is known to fall under the umbrella of indie rock although they have changed their style of rock on each album, which is one of the band's key features. Musically the band have expanded and altered their sound with each of their five albums making it difficult to pin a description to their style. Perhaps the key part of their sound and one that translates across their whole discography is lead singer and frontman Alex Turner's intricate and often rapidly delivered lyrics, sung in a distinctive strong Sheffield accent that their music became famed for in their early years. Their early albums Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not and Favourite Worst Nightmare were rooted in garage rock and post-punk revival, with Turner's sharp lyrics the focal point. On the first album Alex Turner examined human behaviour in nightclubs and in the culture of the band's hometown, Sheffield. Turner describes "Dancing Shoes" as being about "people always looking to pull when they go out however much they mask it."
These themes continued on the following album Favourite Worst Nightmare with the band still progressing as musicians. Songs such as "Fluorescent Adolescent" and "Do Me a Favour" explored failed relationships, nostalgia and growing old, while musically the band took up a more uptempo and aggressive sound.
Their fourth album Suck It and See sees the band exploring styles, mixing them with newfound maturity. Turner said: "I think the new album is a balance between our first three. There's nothing about taxi ranks or anything like that, but there's a bit of the standpoint I had on those early songs and the sense of humour, but also there's a bit of the 'Humbug' stuff which is kind of off in the corners." Critics noted an influence from vintage British rock bands from the 1960s, as well as The Smiths, and slower, love-themed ballads featured more heavily on the album than the fast-paced, rockier songs that typifies the band's sound.
In a 2012 interview with NME magazine, frontman Alex Turner cited John Lennon as a major influence lyrically. Speaking about Lennon, Turner said; "I remember when I first started writing songs, and writing lyrics, I really wanted to be able to write an "I Am the Walrus" type song, and I found it very difficult. You listen to that and it sounds like it's all nonsense, but it's difficult to write that sort of thing and make it compelling. Lennon definitely had a knack for that".
According to the band, the fifth album AM is more hip-hop influenced. As Alex Turner stated in an interview with NME, it's "like a Dr. Dre beat, but we've given it an Ike Turner bowl-cut and sent it galloping across the desert on a Stratocaster". He also cited Outkast, Aaliyah and Black Sabbath as influences for the album. It has steadier beats but an overall calm feeling, while also having heavier songs like "R U Mine?", and softer songs like "Mad Sounds" or "No.1 Party Anthem".

More Questions From This User See All
Kapela znana jest jako indie rockowa, jednak na każdym albumie zmieniają styl rocka, co jest jedną z ich głównych cech. Z każdym spośród pięciu albumów, muzycy zmieniają brzmienie, dlatego trudno przypiąć ich stylowi jakiś opis. Być może kluczową częścią ich brzmienia, przewijającą się przez całą dyskografię, są zawiłe i bardzo szybkie teksty lidera grupy, Alexa Turnera, śpiewane z wyróżniającym się, silnym akcentem z Sheffield, który na początku przyniósł kapeli sławę. Ich wczesne albumy Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not i Favourite Worst Nightmare były zakorzenione w rocku garażowym i post-punk revival, z ich głównym punktem - ostrymi tekstami Turnera. Na pierwszym albumie, Turner rozpatrzył zachowanie ludzi w nocnych klubach, i zachowanie ludzi z ich rodzinnego miasta, Sheffield. Turner opisuje "Dancing Shoes" jako piosenkę o osobach, które zawsze gdy wychodzą, (nie mam pojęcia jak przetłumaczyć tu 'pull' ... może 'szukają zaczepki'), jednak to maskują.
Tematy te, kontynuowane są na albumie Favourite Worst Nightmare, a grupa rozwija się jako muzycy. Piosenki takie, jak "Fluorescent Adolescent" i "Do me a favour", traktują o nieudanych związkach, nostalgii i starzeniu się, a w tym czasie zespół narzuca szybsze tempo i agresywne brzmienie.
Czwarty album Suck it and See, przedstawia grupę odkrywającą style, miksującą je z nowo odkrytą dojrzałością. Turner powiedział: Myślę, że ten album jest balansem pomiędzy pierwszymi trzema. Nie ma nic o postojach taksówek, o niczym takim, ale jest trochę o moim spojrzeniu na te wczesne piosenki, trochę poczucia humoru, ale również trochę tego, co w "Humbug". Krytycy zauważyli wpływ starych brytyjskich zespołów rockowych z lat 60-tych, oraz The Smiths, oraz wolniejsze ballady o miłości, których więcej na albumie niż szybkich rockowych piosenek, które uosabiają brzmienie grupy.
W 2012 roku, frontman Alex Turner, w wywiadzie dla NME Magazine, przywołał Johna Lennona, jako największy wpływ na teksty. A jeśli już mowa o Lennonie, Turner powiedział: "Pamiętam, kiedy zaczynałem pisać piosenki, i teksty, bardzo chciałem napisać piosenkę w rodzaju "I Am the Walrus", i uważałem, że to bardzo trudne. Słuchasz tego i brzmi to jak nonsens, trudno napisać coś takiego, i żeby to przykuwało uwagę. Lennon zdecydowanie miał do tego talent".
Według kapeli, piąty album jest bardziej hip-hopowy. Alex Turner powiedział w wywiadzie dla NME: "to tak jak bit Dr. Dre, ale z fryzurą Ike'a Turnera, galopujący po pustyni, na Stratocaster". Jako inspiracje do albumu, wskazał też Outkast, Aaliyah i Black Sabbath. Ma miarowe bity, ale jest spokojniejszy, ale również z cięższymi piosenkami, jak "R U Mine?", a także lżejszymi, jak "Mad Sounds", czy "No. 1 Party Anthem".
