A year later, Turner co-produced Alexandra Savior's debut album Belladonna of Sadness with James Ford. This was Turner's first foray into tape production, with the two proceeding to produce Serenity Base Hotel & Casino.[ii] [3] [four]

Following the international success of AM, Turner suffered from writer's cake, and struggled to find a direction for a new album. Having written "Sweet Dreams, TN" from Everything You've Come to Expect, he lost interest in writing beloved songs, with a friend suggesting "not doing that for a moment". In early 2016, upon watching Federico Fellini's 1963 film eight½, Turner was inspired past its delineation of writer's block, childhood memories and the science fiction genre.

Helders commented that during recording he played with more restraint than on previous records, noting that "it's about playing for the songs".[7] Further recording sessions took place with Ford in London. The group employed a wide array of guest musicians. Ford and guitarist Tom Rowley, (who has served as a touring fellow member of the band since 2013),[12] contributed to several tracks. Drummer Loren Humphrey of Guards, keyboardist James Righton and pianist Josephine Stephenson contributed to "Four Out of Five", "Scientific discipline Fiction" and "The Ultracheese". Zach Dawes and Tyler Parkford of Mini Mansions, and Evan Weiss of Wires on Fire besides performed on "American Sports" and "The World'due south First Ever Monster Truck Front Flip". Additionally, Cam Avery of Tame Impala contributed backing vocals to "She Looks Similar Fun".[4] The musicians performed together in a single room, influenced by images of the sessions for the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds (1966), likewise every bit Phil Spector's Wall of Sound product method.[5] Parkford joined the ring every bit a touring fellow member following the anthology's release, whilst Avery also joined the Tranquility Base of operations Hotel & Casino Tour equally an opening act and invitee musician at some shows.[12]

"Scientific discipline fiction creates these other worlds within which we can explore our ain, and I wanted to write something about that thought. So, through reading sci-fi ... I began to admission that sort of vocabulary — and so of a sudden we're talking almost virtual reality moon casino experiences."

—Alex Turner[26]

Canadian vocaliser-songwriter Leonard Cohen inspired this different perspective on each lyric's relationship with its context.[29] He farther noted that his writing on the album was straightforward in a way he considered similar to the band'southward debut Whatsoever People Say I Am, That's What I'g Not (2006). On the connections betwixt the two albums, Turner commented that "it's set in a completely dissimilar place, obviously, just there'south something in the lyrics that reminds me of something in that writing.

I call up that was something I was trying to get away from, and perchance I've returned to it now".[5]
