—Alex Turner[26]

Tranquility Base of operations Hotel & Casino is a concept album depicting a luxury hotel at Tranquility Base, the location of the 1969 Moon landing.[19] Lyrically, the album refers oftentimes to science fiction, incorporating "hyperrealist satire" and "interstellar escapism"[22] in order to explore entertainment's role in periods of social change: "the desire to escape into it, and the desire to create information technology".[7] This is influenced by current politics in the United States,[vii] also every bit consumerism,[22] fame,[18] religion and technology.[24] The "forgetful, distractible oddballs" Turner embodies equally his narrators frequently go distracted.
