9. 'Separate and Ever Dead': The lyrics are spat out with such anguish and frustration that the tune almost gives way to spoken words. The emphasis on the 'Ts' of the line "Won't let go" is slightly jarring, but it's a driven and biting 2 minutes and 40 seconds.
![8. 'It's hard to get around the wind': None of Turner's Submarine songs are conventionally capitalised. In fact, it feels as though they lack the confidence to do so - which is perfectly and sensitively fitting for the film's 15-year-old protagonist Oliver Tate.]()

'The Machine': Reverend and the Makers might have struggled to survive the cull of noughties indie-rock bands that occured at the start of the '10s, but their Alex Turner collaboration 'The Machine' is still a massive tune. With its thumping, electronica instrumentals supporting Turner's bursting refrain, "Don't forget you can get off the conveyor", it's an underrated gem.

5. 'Hiding Tonight': The most languid and unassuming of Turner's brilliant Submarine soundtrack. It's a tale of introspection and shyness, and its lyrics, "Tomorrow I'll be quicker / I'll stare into the strobe light flicker /And afloat I'll stay... But I'm quite alright hiding today", are quietly heartbreaking.
![4. 'The Age Of The Understatement': There's a strange mixture of surf rock and marching drums lurking underneath Alex Turner and Miles Kane's harmonised vocals.

2. 'Vertigo': : "I always thought it as some kind of character out of a guy Ritchie movie, that's how I always saw that voice coming in..."Mini Mansions' Mikey Shuman told Gigwise of why they enlisted Turner for this true gem of 2015. "Alex has more of like a sexy, swagger that what we were initially going for, which turned out better than anything we could have imagined, really."

1. 'Piledriver Waltz': Despite having a chorus that barely leaves one note, there's still enough melody present to add weight to the beautiful mundanity of the lyrics. "You look like you've been for breakfast at the Heartbreak Hotel / And sat in the back booth by the pamphlets and the literature... on how to lose." There's a sense of casual profundity that makes this song brilliant.
