Available for 29 days

James Ford, Nadine Shah, Felix White, Yard Act and more share memories to celebrate 10 years since the release of Arctic Monkeys' fifth studio album 'AM', with the record played in full across the hour. 'AM' was released on the 9th September 2013, more than a decade after the band first formed and started playing gigs. It is Arctic Monkeys' fifth studio album. The record received critical acclaim and huge commercial success. It was nominated for the 2013 Mercury Prize, won Grammy and BRIT awards, and was even named album of the decade by NME. With 'AM', Arctic Monkeys became the first band signed to an independent label to debut at number one in the charts with each of their first five albums. Ten years later, it is still the band's most-streamed record. In this hour, artists inspired by the record and friends of the band share memories from 2013 and reasons why they love 'AM'.
