Humbug is the third studio album by Arctic Monkeys, released on 19 August 2009. It marked a darker, more atmospheric direction for the British indie rock band, moving away from the fast-paced guitar sound of their earlier albums.
Produced with Josh Homme, frontman of Queens of the Stone Age, the album features fuzzy guitars, hypnotic rhythms and Alex Turner's distinctive songwriting. Its desert-rock influences give it a moodier, more psychedelic feel than the band's earlier records.
