The 1975 - Notes on a Conditional Form (May 22, 2020) Album • Page 243

This band has some really obvious imitators. There's a band called Midnight Endeavor who only has 4 songs out, and every single one of them sounds like a 1975 song. One of them is like Robbers to a T.

 

Are they good? Lol

 

holy shit. Just looked this up. You ain’t kidding.

 

Honestly there’s a huge wave of bands that really caught onto what the band was doing during ILIWYS that hasn’t been replicated. I like a lot of those bands, but it’s really showing how prolific and influential the 1975 are. Hard to really deny it at this point

 

case in point: he rode really hard for the latest japandroids album which was honestly just okay.

 

I hate how much I'm enjoying the Robbers one

 

literally the three songs i played sounded like sex, settle down and robbers lmao

 

Have you guys seen that conspiracy theory that Spotify creates fake artists to generate stream revenue for themselves

That band makes me think about that

 

The 1975: Notes on a Conditional Form review – passionate if indulgent work pushes boundaries

 

Pretty bad review tbh lol

 

I think the opposite - individuals create fake artists with throwaway tracks and farm listens for cash.

 

'passionate if indulgent' is imo the perfect description for this band.

 

Starting to wonder if it won’t leak cause of the lockdown.

 

Band Camino is another one imo, altho they’re decent

 

Things don't usually leak these days until like the day or two before.

 

Interesting, I like Band Camino quite a bit but I’ve never made a connection in my head to them with The 1975. I’ve seen them live a few times as well and haven’t gotten those vibes either.

TBC is not very 1975 IMO. I would definitely not put them in the imitator category.

 

Definitely didn't mind the review. She didn't review it like some fangirl in awe of the band so I appreciate that. Good to know there are at least a couple of tracks to be excited for beyond the singles. I bet it's a fair assessment of the record at the end of the day.

 

It’s interesting how the reviews have mentioned the same songs. Not a lot of talk about Tonight (I Wish I Was Your Boy), Playing on My Mind, What Should I Say, Bagsy Not In Yet, Yeah I Know, and Then Because She Goes.

 

You ever get really excited about a song based on the title alone? Tonight (I Wish I Was Your Boy) is that song

 

same for me and Then Because She Goes.

 

Also found this

 

They are both great song titles. Perhaps it's because it's a lot of the instrumental stuff?

 

TWENTY THREE!?!?! what is this madness.

Wait - does that mean it's up?
