so this is coming oct 30th

uberweiss, Monday, 13 October 2014 02:11 (nine years ago) link

I bet they're just endorsing some pills.

Herbie Handcock (Murgatroid), Monday, 13 October 2014 03:26 (nine years ago) link

Given the release date of October 30, could Medicine be the track that's going to be on this?

Yes.

Unsettled defender (ithappens), Tuesday, 21 October 2014 12:22 (nine years ago) link

Just heard Medicine: it's rather lovely. A bit like third album Velvets produced by Trevor Horn.

aaaaaaaaaaa

like an extended interlude really, nice tho

no but seriously im not a dick like that (Spottie), Friday, 31 October 2014 06:01 (nine years ago) link

Not bad. Might like it more if I didn't already associate that three-note phrase with NBC

Vinnie, Friday, 31 October 2014 08:12 (nine years ago) link

the steel drums are a nice touch

one direction "change your ticket"

http://stealinstyles.tumblr.com/post/102563468890/change-your-ticket-four-deluxe

this song is so fucking good
and GOT to be produced by the 1975, right?

uberweiss, Thursday, 13 November 2014 23:25 (nine years ago) link

Wow it really is a 1975 song isn't it? I can hear Matt sing it in my head.

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 10:17 (nine years ago) link

Dirty Hit denying 1975 involvement.

But I was right about Medicine, eh?

Unsettled defender (ithappens), Friday, 14 November 2014 10:55 (nine years ago) link

ah yeah it sounds just like "girls" lol

J0rdan S., Friday, 14 November 2014 15:24 (nine years ago) link

this is great tho

J0rdan S., Friday, 14 November 2014 15:27 (nine years ago) link

this is.... as good as any 1975 song? is that blasphemous?

J0rdan S., Friday, 14 November 2014 15:36 (nine years ago) link

It's really good, not sure if I like it as much as Heart Out, Robbers or Chocolate, but it's on par with Girls and Settle Down. If 1975 are not involved with this, then at least there's some degree of catching up here. I like the way they're channeling Scritti so much via 1975 it doesn't really sound like Scritti and totally 1975.

After not having cared that much for Take me home or Midnight Memories I suppose I'm mildly pumped up for this one.

cpl593H, Friday, 14 November 2014 16:17 (nine years ago) link

"Stockholm Syndrome" might be them too, sounds a lot like "Heart Out".

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 19:45 (nine years ago) link

i can't stop listening to this

J0rdan S., Friday, 14 November 2014 20:35 (nine years ago) link

The 1975 are absolutely not involved in it in any way, nor with any other track on the record. The song Healy wrote was not used.

Unsettled defender (ithappens), Friday, 14 November 2014 21:14 (nine years ago) link

wait, is this band good? i assumed they were awful.

alpine static, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:15 (nine years ago) link

also do they ever NOT sell out a show? i pay attention to concert calendars in four cities around the country and every time they play any of them, they sell out weeks or months in advance.

alpine static, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:19 (nine years ago) link

read the whole thread!

no but seriously im not a dick like that (Spottie), Friday, 14 November 2014 22:22 (nine years ago) link

The answers to your questions are related.

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:22 (nine years ago) link

If "change your ticket" is just a rip off then I'm even more impressed.

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:23 (nine years ago) link

xpost i know, but you have to admit there are a lot of sketchy bands with very passionate, young female fanbases out there selling out everywhere they go. it's a thing right now, and i assumed - unfairly, i admit! - that that's what we were dealing with here.

i shall investigate! glad this thread popped up.

alpine static, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:26 (nine years ago) link

Actually that dynamic is involved as well to be fair.

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:27 (nine years ago) link

Singer Matt Healey is like a bedraggled dog that the fans want to take home and run a bath for.

Tim F, Friday, 14 November 2014 22:28 (nine years ago) link

I hear some Tears for fears in Stockholm Syndrome too; who would have thought sophistipop would be making a comeback this good.

The last minute or so of Change your ticket, the instrumental part, is a very good Blue Nile via 1975 impression.

cpl593H, Saturday, 15 November 2014 03:03 (nine years ago) link

tbh I think this song is basically perfect

"watching you get dressed / messes with my head" is such a good opening line

also the simple almost naivety of "it's not good to be all alone"

J0rdan S., Saturday, 15 November 2014 05:23 (nine years ago) link

YOU SHOULD PROBLEH STAY

uberweiss, Saturday, 15 November 2014 06:45 (nine years ago) link

two weeks pass...

i got a ticket for tonight and omg

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Thursday, 4 December 2014 23:55 (nine years ago) link

the crowd was awfulll. they played "medicine" for the first time ever i think. it was amazing.

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 December 2014 05:28 (nine years ago) link

holding a grudge against that crowd forever for talking full on brutally through "me" "fallingforyou" AND "is there somebody who can watch you"

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 December 2014 05:30 (nine years ago) link

How amazing were those songs tho

Tim F, Friday, 5 December 2014 08:38 (nine years ago) link

they were unbelievable of course

i ended up spending $60 on my ticket and immediately thought "i blame taylor." of course she was there

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 December 2014 16:06 (nine years ago) link

WHY DIDN'T THEY PLAY FALLINGFORYOU WHEN I SAW THEM UGH. STILL THE BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE ANYWAY.

AND YOU WERE IN THE NEAR VICINITY OF THE 1975 AND TAYLOR SWIFT ALL AT ONCE OMG

uberweiss, Friday, 5 December 2014 16:19 (nine years ago) link

yeah i'm surprised i left unmelted

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 December 2014 16:20 (nine years ago) link

"me" was really intense to hear live, briefly enhanced by the person ahead of me being really excited to hear it and describing it to her friend as "kind of a slow jam"

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 5 December 2014 16:44 (nine years ago) link

Yeah the live performance of "Me" really brings out its gothic qualities.

I liked Matt's intro when I saw them: "This song is about me."

Tim F, Friday, 5 December 2014 21:24 (nine years ago) link

man settle down -> heart out -> pressure is soooo good in this show

J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 December 2014 03:03 (nine years ago) link

the show from "settle on" is basically untouchable, i loved all the sax parts

J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 December 2014 05:03 (nine years ago) link

idk if this is coming knowledge but matt says they're recording a new album right now

J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 December 2014 05:04 (nine years ago) link

for whatever reason one thing i kept thinking during this show is that 1975 are what bloc party could've or should've been... like if they weren't afraid of how good "i remember" was or kept making songs as dope as "flux" (i'm still sour)

J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 December 2014 05:08 (nine years ago) link

common knowledge **
