The 1975 - Notes on a Conditional Form (May 22, 2020) Album • Page 113

Damn, gonna be an hour behind everyone in this thread. Can’t wait!

 

Is it out in China yet or something

 

I hope it's a heavier version of people.

 

Matty Healy Isn't Shutting Up, Ever

New interview.

 

The instrumental for the track with Greta has an EP quality to it.

 

And so we come to Notes on a Conditional Form, which is, by both Healy’s account and mine, having heard a bit of it, not really the world agenda-tackling thing people are expecting. Healy explains: “We’ve made it our probably least self-aware record, that’s what freaks me out about it. Because there’s like a bunch of love songs on it.

 

“Frail State of Mind” – the album’s third single, which sounds a bit like a sad analogue to The 1975’s 2018 track “TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME”

let's fuckin goooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

Sad tootime let’s do it

 

When it’s time for me to leave, Healy says goodbye and asks if I really like the new music, or if I was just saying I did. I didn’t tell him at the time, but I think it’s probably their best material yet – what could confirm The 1975 as the prophetic band many heard on A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. I turn around to wave to him before I walk out of the room, but he’s already sat at the table with a guitar – noodling away at something new, finding voice for something else he has to say.

Give me this record right now please

 

I want it!

 

I remember one of our shows in 2014,” he laughs. “I was talking to this guy backstage, and he was like, ‘Oh I used to be in a band, yeah I played drums.’ And I was like, ‘Cool, what was your band called?’ and he was like, ‘Thursday.’” His face contorts in delight at the memory (“I’d seen Thursday a bunch of times!”).

Bring this tour to life

 

There’s been several people stating that Notes is their best material yet and I’m absolutely freaking out

 

here for the sad bangerz

 

Very stoked on the idea of them revisiting the EP sound with their more seasoned skills as songwriters. Love the atmosphere of a lot of those songs, and a few of them are still some of their best work in my eyes, however a fair amount of them felt half-baked in terms of structure/just didn’t feel like fully actualized “songs” vs just “ideas.”

 

Zane Lowe here we gooooooooooooooo

 

link?

 

I like that this band is into radio premieres. Makes everything feel like a moment.

They must not be doing Hottest Record on BBC because Annie Mac's premiering both Coldplay songs today.

Lol yeah I just jumped in and I'm God knows how far into the song already
