the 1975

this finally leaked fyi

HELL YEAH

WHAAAAAA

i mean it sucks that it leaked but it's only two days out and it's AMAZING

I NEED THIS ALBUMMMMMMM

check reddit

oh man A Change of Heart sounds even better than the radio rip I love how detailed this is

the link on the reddit post has been removed :'(

omg someone send me a link seriously i'm dying here

wow i just realized two things
a. i haven't used ilx in forever
b. i was a prick when i came up with this username

guess today was a day to test my ilx webmail

Me2 please brad!

not that i did or anything

omg She's American is an idealised version of the first album it's fantastic. the sax solo is different to the live version though weird. I Believe You really does sound like D'Angelo it's gorgeous

if i'm lost
then how can i find myself

it's likely in a sainsbury's
flirting with the girls and waiting for me
i jumped on a bus, declared my name
asked if anybody had seen my brain
"your brain wast last seen going for a run
and would you sign an autograph for my daughter lauren
'cause she adores you"

lol sorry i love so many parts of this record

they don't really resemble each other musically but i've been thinking of it in conjunction with the paramore s/t both in terms of length and of feeling a group really expand their dimensions

Please Be Naked through to The Ballad of Me And My Brain wow this is so expansive & there's nothing close to a dud so far.

Pressure on the debut kinda reminded me of the Paramore s/t

very excited for everybody to hear the stretch of please be naked -> title track, world contracting into a single molecule vibes

if i'm lost
then how can i find myself

just got to this part and i'm about to cry buckets

you've got two ears and a heart

this is way more ambient than i expected tbh

she is a pain in the nose
i'm a pain in women's clothes
you're a walking overdose in a grey coat

WHAT IS HAPPENING I JUST WOKE UP

BRAD!!!!

Teh pain is killing me

lol

how did they get away with making it so long! it's so generous

haha 'that was it'

YEYEYYEYYAYYAYAYYA THANK U KIND SIR

I HAVE TO GO TO WORK NOW THIS IS SUCH A SICK JOKE

Everything was sounding familiar til If I Believe You and woooow

"this must be my dream" is a gay anthem

^^^^^^

uh send to me too please Brad, it will make up for all the pain you've put me through

what are you talking about, i don't have it

matty healy singing "if i'm lost, then how can i find myself" is my religion

can i ask for a link as well??? OMG OMG OMG

Wiiiiiiiieww "Lostmyhead". My Bloody Valentine who?

where is this? this is probably the hardest leak I've faced. so to speak.

this album has been such a rollercoaster and there are still like 5 songs to go. Like what even happened there with about 90 seconds to go in the title track?

seems like it goes a bit Sheeran for the last few tracks :|

Please tell me you haven't been sharing that link, Brad …

i am not!

seems like it goes a bit Sheeran for the last few tracks :|

btw I get this but they're among the two most devastating tracks on the record subject matter-wise

God almighty the studio version of "She's American". Absolutely glorious. Everything I hoped for. Had to close the door to my room so my roommate wouldn't see me dancing like a maniac

My thought process after first listen: "people are being silly, there aren't that many curveballs on this...just the ambient instrumental, and the shoegaze one, and the electro-D'angelo one, and the acoustic stuff...oh, wait."

If I have a criticism it's that a few more songs could stand to be trimmed down to "Ugh!" / "Ballad of Me and My Brain" length.

damn, just listened 'if i believe you' and i'm torn apart.

Please tell me you haven't been sharing that link, Brad …

As far as I can tell, he was testing his ILX webmail and someone thanked him for doing so.

lol thanks turrican

i look forward to you hating this record

i have absolutely no idea how to approach this myself

i think if anything i'm expecting to like it quite a bit, which opens up the danger of being disappointed....by the 1975. weird times
