The 1975 - A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships (November 30, 2018) Album • Page 419

duuude i just picked up the guitar line in the chorus of i always wanna die sometimes and it sounds like where is my mind lol

 

I'd love to see an equipment rig rundown for this upcoming tour

 

That’s the one I meant

This one

The 1975 Setlist at The Temple, The Institute, Birmingham

 

can't be more than three times etc

 

Nah, that was the second biggest I think! The Temple is the smallest. Or rather was. Isn't it the o2 Institute now?

 

You are killing me dude. I can't wait to listen to this friggin album tomorrow.

 

All of their records are vastly different imo. I couldn't stand the S/T record and still cannot get through the whole thing. I was on this site bashing this band after Sleep was released (which is a record that I appreciate much more now, but still isn't a record I frequent...I know hot take). I found myself infatuated with single after single with this current stretch and really enjoy the new record.

For my taste, they've made a record that I enjoy start to finish (which is only their third full-length record).

 

I feel like that's a massive overstatement, it only reached #19 in the UK singles charts

 

Got number two in the 'UK Indie' charts. I heard it everywhere I went and the video was played relentlessly, alongside everybody under the sun making the joke that they couldn't understand what Matty was singing.

 

Getting to number two in the indie charts is not the UK equivalent of the success that Carly Rae Jepsen had with Call Me Maybe lmao

 

Oh yeah, I'm not saying they weren't popular at that time. I'm just saying that equating the commercial success of "Chocolate" with "Call Me Maybe" is a hugely misleading exaggeration

 

*shrug* It was pretty big here and played everywhere is all. I'd absolutely liken it to Carly Rae considering both were played to death over the radio and on TV. Might not be the same stats-wise, but we're talking apples and oranges here. A mainstream pop act was obviously going to get more attention than The 1975 would've back then.

 

Yeah the figures aren't nearly the same. Was just referring to what I experienced here. Adored Chocolate but go so numb to it by the time the UK radios were through with it. An Aussie soap still bloody uses it every so often now, if they're not playing another one of their songs.

 

desperately reading every interview, review and thinkpiece for Brief Inquiry for even the smallest tidbit of new Notes info

 

I'm just going into Notes blind if I can. Sick of ruining albums by overplaying the singles prior. For once I'd like an album to turn up at my door and not know at allllll what to expect.

 

Today was a good day - this is why you become good friends with your local record store

 

you win, you lose, you sing the blues
but there's no point in buying concrete shoes

 

My preorder hasn’t even budged since the shipping notification was sent out on Tuesday. Still says “Shipment Ready for UPS”. So I’ll probably get it middle of next week

 

When he says Switch in Mine is he referring to, like, Nintendo Switch?

 

Oh no I didn't take it that way! I hear you, I'd be saying the same thing if this were Gaslight or Bon Iver (bands/ artists i've been invested in since the start)

 

I just realized that his vocal delivery in the first 30 seconds of the intro remind me of James Blake.

 

I haven't gotten any notifications at all :(

 

wtf
