sort of endearing how bad they are at album titles, great to hear that we are indeed getting two albums, don't know how to feel about them dragging out the promotion so long yet again if the album isn't until october
― ufo, Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:36 (six years ago) link
I'm dreading the slow-drip promo until October.

I love sincere and earnest Matty.

What's the point of the countdown clock now that the song is officially out
― self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:35 (six years ago) link
music video iirc?

nice guitar tone. his vox sound a little more nasally than usual on this?

good The 1975 song title, I just realized

“Sex” meets “Paris” is OTM and also is officially a look.
Now i’m wondering if the album might end up in vaguely the same sonic territory as the latest Wye Oak (and lol @ me if they then end up being my top two albums of 2018).
― Tim F, Thursday, 31 May 2018 21:06 (six years ago) link
it's great but so short!

and yeah ufo, I also hear "disorder" now that I think of it. my first thought for some was actually "45" by the gaslight anthem

2019 album is Notes On A Conditional Form which is just as pretentious but sounds way better
― ufo, Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:30 (six years ago) link
I also hear "disorder"
manchester band that fuse emo and post-punk tendencies
we've come full circle

Ian Curtis working with Jam and Lewis?

that song is rad, after the sprawl of the last one i would love a lean 'n' mean 1975 album
― alpine static, Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:53 (six years ago) link
wow, absolutely love the guitars
― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:53 (six years ago) link
as soon as i read "notes on a conditional form" i was like "wow this really is my band"
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:57 (six years ago) link
i’m a full convert to this already... the second verse lyrics are so good & once i accepted that the most catchy part of the song is the guitars i really got into it
― J0rdan S., Friday, 1 June 2018 00:57 (six years ago) link
Yeah, pretty much rules.

the LOUD guitar + drum machine reminds me of Billy Idol, actually.

Steve Stevens would play this riff.

The panel I moderated at Pop Con mentioned Healy's sartorial queerness (along with Young Thug and Harry Styles') but he's never coded queer to me.

In the video they look like they're playing a more lively version of the song, and I think I'd really like that version - this is alright but I want it to open up more. But I'm extremely excited for two albums

and i was 25and afraid to go outside
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Friday, 1 June 2018 02:49 (six years ago) link
as nice as this is i am sort of disappointed they haven't come back with a huge pop single to conquer the world with
― ufo, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:56 (six years ago) link
and i do wish there was a bridge instead of just a third verse
― ufo, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:59 (six years ago) link
so i'm dumb and can't find the info: new album in October and then another in May? is that what they've announced?
October is forever away :(

yep :(
― flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Friday, 1 June 2018 03:41 (six years ago) link
Maybe we'll get a new song every month.

a few album details in this interview - "a lot of post-punk" "all over the place", "jazz and lounge", might end up similar to I Like It When You Sleep in length - all sounds promising

Aww I like that interview. He seems to be asking himself the right questions

Don't know if this was posted upthread but it's produced by The 1975 and definitely shares similar vibes
