this feels ominous

Iirc Matty Healy no longer has a corporate role at Dirty Hit, right?

More ominous to me is the band's apparent desire to tour themselves into the ground. They played here and Milwaukee in December 2022, then just a few weeks ago at Lollapalooza, then coming back to Milwaukee and Chicago area in October. That's a lot behind one album.

they tour a ridiculous amount but if anything they've been relatively restrained this year with only ~110 shows (including the rest of this year's schedule) compared to the 204 shows they played in 2014 for example

that’s how you pay the bills these days idk

xxp I thought the same thing. Friend who missed the first show asked if I wanted to go to this one. It's at Allstate, which I'd guess is, what...twice as big as Aragon? I was surprised.

They sold out the United Center in 2018 or whenever, and that's bigger than Allstate.

I’ve been waiting for “Sad Mile,” from Mousetrap, to be discovered for a soundtrack or something…

Wrong thread sorry

xxp Ah, I had no idea. Interesting.

that isn't quite the epic clapback twitter is making it. It's just like an affirmation of Healy's punchline.

it was enough for him to deactivate his account though lol

fully expecting the next album to be the worst thing ever if he hasn't gotten over this idiot edgelord phase

he's deactivated and reactivated a million times tbf

The Ben Dreyfuss of pop.

apparently taking an indefinite hiatus from touring after this latest tour but Matty says a lot of shit so I'm taking it with a grain of salt

Doesn't every band take an indefinite hiatus between tours?

Next album: An Indefinite Hiatus from Touring.

A Momentary Lapse of Touring.

A Brief Deletion of Social Media Accounts

Way back when my daughter bought a couple of tickets to see the Milwaukee show tomorrow. She can't go, so gave the tickets to me. I don't feel like driving up there, and people are selling tickets for the single digits (maybe in part because they subsequently added a Chicago show), so I can't get rid of these tickets, either. Oh well.

I'd normally be game but saw them the last time they came through. Hope you can find some way to use them.

As a lesson to my daughter not to just spend money on things she won't use.

this audio sucks but i love them playing "so far (it's alright)" ... a song that has a very special place in my heart for briefly imagining a collaboration between them & dj koze

looking thru their setlist.fm stats & they've never played "the birthday party" on american soil. that doesn't sit right with me

they put out the MSG live show from earlier this year as an album on streaming

they released more tickets for their previously sold-out show here and ngl I was tempted to go but I really shouldn't spend three digits on a show that's more or less the same show they played less than a year ago

the best band

getting re-obsessed with “102” lately

and their last album is actually a classic I’m afraid to tell the haters. the lads had done it again and it was we who were ignorant

“Oh Caroline” is a huge jam

omg taylor swift offered them an opening spot on her tour but they declined I DON'T THINK I COULD EVEN HAVE PHYSICALLY HANDLED THAT BUT OMG IMAGINE

What is “102”?

a brief inquiry's japanese bonus track. just an acoustic ballad

matty wrote this when he was 15!

love this performance of this song

Wow! Great application of the "Being Funny" arrangement style to that tune IMO. The only boy band that matters, ha

new song from some Apple+ TV show is gorgeous

i need an album by the 1975 focused in this vibe. unfortunately, that will never happen.

self titled expanded edition -core, nice
