So I now have like nearly six weeks of hyperventilating to look forward to.

recent "acoustic" sessions have been gorgeous near-total reworkings of the songs

the guitars are nice but why is he singing it like that!

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 (ten years ago) link
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 (ten years ago) link
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 (ten years ago) link
it's more in line with the singles except for "the 1975," "money," "an encounter," "12," and "menswear." most of these are really short

They should do a bonus disc of straight Wham!bience.
― Tim F, Monday, 12 August 2013 21:31 (ten years ago) link
I prefer bi-curious Wham!bience

Besides the occasional Snow Patrol vibe that I'm a bit unsure about, I'm enjoying these EPs.

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

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/

??? There's nothing bad or offensive about any of these songs but I don't see what the big deal is. They sound like any multitude of bands you'd see covered by Alternative Press. Like a late 2000's emo band reinventing themselves as an opener for Maroon 5.

I'm jealous of how much you guys are liking them, I can hear that I should be into it but they remind me too much of every tool hanging out at the Old Blue Last (which I have no reason to believe is a fair assessment) for me to listen with adequately open ears.

yeah the reason i find them pretty novel is i don't have a precedent for a hybridization of emo and '80s r&b
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Thursday, 29 August 2013 19:49 (ten years ago) link
The instinctive aversion of people with taste kinda makes me enjoy them more? idk
