Arctic Monkeys have set up camp in an L.A. studio in Hollywood The Sun claims, staying in a £3 million luxury villa in the Hollywood Hills.
Famous neighbours now include Jennifer Aniston and porn-maker Larry Flynt.
The Sheffield boys are back in the studio with James Ford (Simian Mobile Disco/ Klaxons / Last Shadow Puppets) who did the band's past three albums.
The new album looks as if it will be released before the end of the year.
Meanwhile lead singer Alex Turner is reportedly working with actor Ben Stiller on the soundtrack to 'Submarine' which is due out in March.
