Pls accept this shitty meme I made in like 45 seconds I just really love this band
a brief inquiry into online relationships is insane. it’s something so entirely new for this band and the entire music industry it transcends genre. it’s so them, yet so different. it’s so sad and honest and genuine. there are so many different influences but it’s still so fresh and unique. even if you don’t like some of the songs or the direction the album took, you have to admit it’s impressive.
“Each track on the next 1975 album – due in May next year and already titled Notes on a Conditional Form – will have, as a title, a word that doesn’t have an equivalent in English, such as the Welsh hiraeth – “That’s homesickness for a place you can’t return to. The Swedish gökotta, which means ‘getting up extra early to appreciate that morning, just for the morning’.”

so, what about these feelings i’ve got? we got it wrong and you said you’d had enough.
“Who’s got better taste in music? Young women or old men? I’ve met countless young women who are way, way smarter than me, way wiser, way more worldly than me, who are into the band and bring me books. There’s this amazing dialogue between me and my fans. There’s an interest in the sharing of intellectual ideas based around art. I’m informed by them – the reason that the last album is pink is because, when the black-and-white era finished, I went on Tumblr and everyone was re-editing pre-existing images and making them all pink. You don’t get that with old men. You don’t move culture with old men.”

a brief inquiry into online relationships is one of the most beautiful pieces of art i’ve listened to. there’s no band like the 1975 right now.
