the 1975

next single is It's Not Living If It's Not With You out this thursday

i really haven't minded the drip feed approach they've taken this time, new songs monthly for a year straight (with an album half-way and another at the end) is pretty great

Do you think they'll add more dates to that tour or have another leg? I'm bummed they're not playing Calgary this time (they've played here for their past two albums) and strongly considering travelling to see them considering I haven't traveled in years

i really haven't minded the drip feed approach they've taken this time, new songs monthly for a year straight (with an album half-way and another at the end) is pretty great

if their goal with that has been to build anticipation, they've certainly got me hooked. They've released four great tracks so far, if this new one is as great as the others it could have AOTY potential

Good Christ they only went ahead and created the best mid-80s pop track ever here.

<3

well this song rules

This band is unstoppable

the greatest band in the world

COLLAPSE MY VEINS WEARING BEAUTIFUL SHOES

lol if this is basically the "this must be my dream" of this album it's going to be the best album ever.

was gonna say, "Oh, it's another 'This Must Be My Dream.'"

i like this better... the last minute of this is ridic

how does this band keep getting better at what they do and make it sound so effortless

its really absurd how good they are

Another great song. Chorus reminds me of "Love Will Never Do Without You"

this is so fun

when is the album out again?

november something?

11/30

melody is similar to 'heaven is a place on earth'

this is the heroin song i guess

Speaking as someone who's been clean for 11 years as of this month, "Collapse my veins wearing beautiful shoes" is one of the most poignant lines about heroin addition that I've ever heard in song. That line would be notable on a solemn, sad, druggy album by a band like Spiritualized, for example. But dropping it into the chorus of such an incredibly hooky '80s pop/rock song feels like a stroke of genius.

lol if this is basically the "this must be my dream" of this album it's going to be the best album ever.

this band is just too much for me to handle.

welcome back stephen

i can't get over the fact that the singer in this band is the son of a "loose women" woman (also the winner of a celebirty big brother) and the guy from Auf Wiedersehen, Pet.

i love my favorite band so much

yes!

need to think a bit before filling out a top 10 though.

"Me" is still the best song ever for staring out at a city at night from a hotel room on a high floor while jetlagged.
