Arctic Monkeys have revealed the artwork to their new album AM.

The artwork, which you can see above, was posted on Twitter by the band this morning (July 14) along with a message which reads: “Here’s the artwork for ‘AM’, released on 9th Sept 2013.” The minimal design is in keeping with the animated video and artwork for the album’s lead single ‘Do I Wanna Know?’.
