Bout what you'd expect with a song like that I guess.

I struggle to imagine how "Sex" could possibly be improved on.
Kinda ridiculous how emotional I feel about these songs now.

It also occurs to me that this band could have played every night at The Bronze and handily catered to any and every mood required by the narrative.

ok i am listening to them now
― k3vin k., Saturday, 27 July 2013 17:40 (twelve years ago)
wow, "sex" is the shit
don't hear a ton of 3EB (whom i love) in them, but agree with ned on the shoegaze touchpoints. this is going to sound lame but the first thing i thought of was actually...glasvegas
― k3vin k., Saturday, 27 July 2013 18:07 (twelve years ago)
Wow not sure how you can't hear some 3eb in there!

He may not have gotten to "Chocolate" or "The City" yet.
― Tim F, Saturday, 27 July 2013 23:13 (twelve years ago)
is "this is how it starts" an explicit ref. to LCD's "all my friends"?
i think this is merely okay. maybe it will click. i have terrible taste now "anyway!"

even through an extremely low quality stream, uh, album of the year

can confirm the guitars on this thing sound perfectly '80s sophistopop
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 02:20 (twelve years ago)
this is a truly beautiful record that threads together most of the kinds of music i love
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 02:35 (twelve years ago)
knowing that both tim f and brad are already holding this record up like a high school football hero has increased my anticipation by 1000x
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 02:48 (twelve years ago)
If lies are being told about this record's quality I will have things to say.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 03:20 (twelve years ago)
ned i think you'll straight up love it
sorry for not being able to contain my enthusiasm for another month
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 03:25 (twelve years ago)
V. good.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 03:25 (twelve years ago)
of all the singles the album is very much in the vein of "chocolate" so if you like that
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 03:40 (twelve years ago)
aaaaah i can't wait until y'all hear "settle down" aaaaah
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 04:09 (twelve years ago)
So I now have like nearly six weeks of hyperventilating to look forward to.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 04:12 (twelve years ago)
recent "acoustic" sessions have been gorgeous near-total reworkings of the songs

oof that version of sex is horrific
― max, Monday, 12 August 2013 17:24 (twelve years ago)
hahaha idk it reminded me of this, probably my favorite song off the facedown ep

my favorite version of sex, is the one with your mom
― k3vin k., Monday, 12 August 2013 17:29 (twelve years ago)
the guitars are nice but why is he singing it like that!
― max, Monday, 12 August 2013 17:29 (twelve years ago)
lmbo kev
ha but no i agree the acoustic version is kinda worthless, the orig is pretty perfect
― k3vin k., Monday, 12 August 2013 17:30 (twelve years ago)
ahaha i'm probably just desperate for them to release something from the album proper already
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 12 August 2013 17:34 (twelve years ago)
Is their any thing on the album that shows their more ambient side like from the EP's or is everything more in line as to what the main singles are like?
― MarkoP, Monday, 12 August 2013 17:36 (twelve years ago)
it's more in line with the singles except for "the 1975," "money," "an encounter," "12," and "menswear." most of these are really short
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 12 August 2013 17:41 (twelve years ago)
They should do a bonus disc of straight Wham!bience.
― Tim F, Monday, 12 August 2013 21:31 (twelve years ago)
I prefer bi-curious Wham!bience

Besides the occasional Snow Patrol vibe that I'm a bit unsure about, I'm enjoying these EPs.
― MikoMcha, Thursday, 15 August 2013 07:02 (twelve years ago)
here's, uh, a remix of a song from the album https://soundcloud.com/ludmilla-santos/the-1975-pressure-bear-face

yeah that's prob better than the one i posted upthread
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 19 August 2013 18:48 (twelve years ago)
Not really paid much attention to the EPs, so must revisit. Just been listening to the album and some of it's brilliant – some really sharp lyrics in there. I prefer the choons to the ambient ones, but maybe I'd feel different if I'd listened to them earlier.

they premiered "settle down" on zane lowe yesterday; no one's made an individual soundcloud/youtube of it yet so right now you can listen to it here, about an hour and 45 minutes into the show http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b038xp7t/Zane_Lowe_Angel_Haze_and_Earl_Sweatshirt/
