Submarine (Original Songs From The Film) features six original songs written and performed by Alex Turner, frontman of Arctic Monkeys, for Richard Ayoade’s acclaimed 2010 coming-of-age film Submarine. Released in 2011 through Domino, the soundtrack marked Turner’s first major solo project and offers a more intimate, understated side of his songwriting.

Inspired by the film’s characters and story, Turner’s songs capture the awkwardness, uncertainty, romance, and melancholy of teenage life. The collection includes “Stuck on the Puzzle (Intro),” “Hiding Tonight,” “Glass in the Park,” “It’s Hard to Get Around the Wind,” “Stuck on the Puzzle,” and “Piledriver Waltz.” Together, the six tracks form a concise and atmospheric musical companion to Oliver Tate’s complicated journey through first love and family life.

Musically, Submarine moves away from the energetic guitar-driven sound associated with Arctic Monkeys, instead embracing acoustic guitar, delicate arrangements, intimate vocals, and subtle orchestral touches. Turner worked with producer James Ford, while Bill Ryder-Jones contributed to the recordings and Owen Pallett arranged strings. The result is a tender, stripped-back collection that reveals a different dimension of Turner’s songwriting.

The soundtrack perfectly complements Ayoade’s distinctive visual style and the film’s blend of awkward comedy, romance, and emotional vulnerability. Songs such as “Hiding Tonight” and “Stuck on the Puzzle” have become particularly associated with the film, while “Piledriver Waltz” would later be reworked by Arctic Monkeys for their 2011 album Suck It and See.

Submarine (Original Songs From The Film) is an essential release for fans of Alex Turner, Arctic Monkeys, indie rock, and film soundtracks, offering a beautifully understated snapshot of one of the artist’s most distinctive songwriting projects.
