The 1975

The 1975 follow-up 2016's I Like it When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It, with their third album, A Brief Enquiry Into Online Relationships, which is introduced by the previously released singles "Give Yourself A Try," "TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME" and "It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)." Singer Matty Healy on the new 15-track record to NME: "Our first three albums are the story of a person; it's always kind of been my story. It spanned adolescence to maturity, success and trying to mediate the two, and the third one is where we are now." He ambitiously adds to Uproxx: "If you look at third albums, [Radiohead's] OK Computer or [The Smiths'] The Queen Is Dead, that's what we need to do. I want a legacy. I want people to look back and think our records were the most important pop records that a band put out in this decade." A companion LP tentatively titled Notes on a Conditional Form will follow in 2019.

Double vinyl LP pressing in special packaging. 2018 release, the third studio album by British rock band The 1975. A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships was produced by band members Matthew Healy and George Daniel, and is the band's first album to not be produced by regular collaborator, Mike Crossey. Following the release of the band's second album, I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It, Healy announced the album with a working title of Music for Cars, sharing the name with the band's third extended play, although it was later clarified that Music for Cars was an "era" for the band, rather than a single album. The band have released five singles from the album: "Give Yourself a Try", "Love It If We Made It", "TooTimeTooTimeTooTime", "Sincerity Is Scary" and "It's Not Living (If It's Not with You)".

Matthew Healy, (vocals/guitar), Adam Hann (guitar), George Daniel (drums) and Ross MacDonald (Bass) started making music together aged 14. They spent their time collecting musical influences that would later inform their hybrid sound. After signing to Dirty Hit in 2012, the band released 4 EP's, before releasing their debut self-titled album in September 2013, which went straight to No. 1 on the UK album chart.

The band's songs have become an omniscient presence in British music over the past year, their indelible art-pop tales of the thrill of life in your ‘20s striking a chord with mainstream audiences. Having topped the UK album charts and sold out every headline show to date, The 1975 have cemented their status as Britain's biggest new band.

The UK quartet return in 2016 with their eagerly awaited sophomore album I Like It When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It (Dirty Hit / Interscope) and surefire lead single "Love Me."

Following 2018's A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships, The 1975's much-anticipated fourth studio effort, Notes on a Conditional Form is the second of two albums from the British band's third release cycle, Music for Cars. Over the past six months, the band has dropped a selection of sonically-diverse singles from Notes on a Conditional Form. Released in July of 2019, "The 1975" features a spoken-word recording from Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg, underscored by instrumentals. On the heels of "The 1975" came the punchy, punk-infused "People," while "Frail State Of Mind," which frontman Matty Healy described as a song about anxiety, followed in October. The two most recent singles off the album included the shoegazey "Me & You Together Song," and the twangy, "The Birthday Party."

"Every time I do a 1975 record, I kind of just go through my catalogue of music, the mental rolodex," says Healy. "And I think that Notes is an interesting record, because it has our most aggressive moments and our most tranquil moments, and they're quite harshly lined up against each other. I don't have a playlist of one type of music, so I don't consume music like that, and when I'm inspired it'll never happen twice in one genre."

On Notes On A Conditional Form, the band's family has grown to encompass new collaborators too, including actor Timothy Healy, Matty's father. "Don't Worry" was written by Healy senior when Matty was 11 and was dusted down and recorded by the band for NOACF. Elsewhere, FKA twigs and Phoebe Bridgers lend their vocals as backing textures and a duet from the latter. "It became such a personal record that there were no rules anymore," adds Healy. "Anybody who had breached the intimacy of the studio was inherently part of the record already. With Phoebe, I just felt like I hadn't loved a female vocal like hers in like a decade – I was obsessed with her record."
