Back in November, Monkeys drummer Matt Helders said that the band’s new album is “pretty much” finished and is likely to arrive this year.

Asked by 5 Live Breakfast‘s Rick Edwards if the new album – the follow-up to 2018’s ‘Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino’ – was “ready to go”, Helders replied: “Yeah, pretty much, yeah. It was a bit disjointed how we had to do it, and there are bits to finish off, but yeah, it’s all in the works.”
