Everything You've Come to Expect is the second and most recent studio album by English supergroup the Last Shadow Puppets, released on 1 April 2016 by Domino Recording Company. It was written by band co-frontmen Alex Turner and Miles Kane in 2014 between London, Paris and Los Angeles. Production was done in Malibu by fellow member James Ford, alongside guest musician Matt Helders, new bass player, Zach Dawes and featuring once again string arrangements by Owen Pallett. The album artwork features a photo of singer Tina Turner dancing, as photographed by Jack Robinson Jr. in November 1969; the original picture was modified by illustrator Matthew Cooper, who gave it a gold tint.

Everything You've Come to Expect features a wide array of genres that include baroque pop, orchestral soul and psychedelic pop, with influences from desert rock, post-punk, funk, disco and Italian film scores. The lyrical content explores themes of hedonism, romance and self-doubt, and its a retelling of the nightlife adventures of two young rockstars. The album was released to generally positive reviews from critics, who mostly noted the band's evolution from the genre pastiche of their debut album. Welcoming their new style, while staying true to their sound. Everything You've Come to Expect became the Last Shadow Puppets' second and Turner’s seventh consecutive number-one debut in the UK, also topping the charts in Belgium. Following its release, the album was promoted by the singles "Bad Habits" and "Aviation", as well as a global tour and multiple television appearances.
