self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link

first one in october, next one in may?

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link

Wait, this sounds like "The City".

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link

... in what way

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link

Melodically?

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:27 (five years ago) link

i suppose the verses are set up similarly

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:28 (five years ago) link

Jeez, try not to be too agreeable

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:32 (five years ago) link

lol sorry i just don't really hear it

anyway, great song

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:34 (five years ago) link

sort of endearing how bad they are at album titles, great to hear that we are indeed getting two albums, don't know how to feel about them dragging out the promotion so long yet again if the album isn't until october

ufo, Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:36 (five years ago) link

I'm dreading the slow-drip promo until October.

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:36 (five years ago) link

lol jinx

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:36 (five years ago) link

I love sincere and earnest Matty.

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:37 (five years ago) link

what a good day

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:44 (five years ago) link

Ugh, see y'all in October. Bye!

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:46 (five years ago) link

i love this stupid band

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 18:47 (five years ago) link

Song honors the title imo

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:25 (five years ago) link

the album is called a brief inquiry into online relationships

it is not done yet, lmao

i’m just with my friends online
and there’s things we’d like to change

k3vin k., Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:26 (five years ago) link

What's the point of the countdown clock now that the song is officially out

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:35 (five years ago) link

music video iirc?

lowercase (eric), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:38 (five years ago) link

nice guitar tone. his vox sound a little more nasally than usual on this?

they call me melo gelo (Spottie), Thursday, 31 May 2018 19:43 (five years ago) link

i feel extremely owned by these lyrics

J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 May 2018 20:03 (five years ago) link

Jordan, are you 29

self-clowning oven (Murgatroid), Thursday, 31 May 2018 20:08 (five years ago) link

for crying out loud, settle down.

good The 1975 song title, I just realized

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 31 May 2018 20:09 (five years ago) link

“Sex” meets “Paris” is OTM and also is officially a look.

Now i’m wondering if the album might end up in vaguely the same sonic territory as the latest Wye Oak (and lol @ me if they then end up being my top two albums of 2018).

Tim F, Thursday, 31 May 2018 21:06 (five years ago) link

it's great but so short!

k3vin k., Thursday, 31 May 2018 21:13 (five years ago) link

and yeah ufo, I also hear "disorder" now that I think of it. my first thought for some was actually "45" by the gaslight anthem

k3vin k., Thursday, 31 May 2018 21:22 (five years ago) link

I like it!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:14 (five years ago) link

2019 album is Notes On A Conditional Form which is just as pretentious but sounds way better

ufo, Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:30 (five years ago) link

I also hear "disorder"

manchester band that fuse emo and post-punk tendencies

we've come full circle

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:41 (five years ago) link

Ian Curtis working with Jam and Lewis?

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:43 (five years ago) link

that song is rad, after the sprawl of the last one i would love a lean 'n' mean 1975 album

alpine static, Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:53 (five years ago) link

wow, absolutely love the guitars

illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:53 (five years ago) link

as soon as i read "notes on a conditional form" i was like "wow this really is my band"

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 May 2018 23:57 (five years ago) link

i’m a full convert to this already... the second verse lyrics are so good & once i accepted that the most catchy part of the song is the guitars i really got into it

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 June 2018 00:57 (five years ago) link

Yeah, pretty much rules.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 June 2018 01:27 (five years ago) link

now that r|t|c is gone ned raggett is my tastemaker

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:41 (five years ago) link

the LOUD guitar + drum machine reminds me of Billy Idol, actually.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:46 (five years ago) link

Steve Stevens would play this riff.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:46 (five years ago) link

love it!
all the emojis, basically

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:47 (five years ago) link

counting down to pride and kicking it off w a new song, queer icons tbh

lowercase (eric), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:57 (five years ago) link

The panel I moderated at Pop Con mentioned Healy's sartorial queerness (along with Young Thug and Harry Styles') but he's never coded queer to me.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 1 June 2018 01:59 (five years ago) link

So good

flopson, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:16 (five years ago) link

In the video they look like they're playing a more lively version of the song, and I think I'd really like that version - this is alright but I want it to open up more. But I'm extremely excited for two albums

Vinnie, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:19 (five years ago) link

and i was 25
and afraid to go outside

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Friday, 1 June 2018 02:49 (five years ago) link

as nice as this is i am sort of disappointed they haven't come back with a huge pop single to conquer the world with

ufo, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:56 (five years ago) link

and i do wish there was a bridge instead of just a third verse

ufo, Friday, 1 June 2018 02:59 (five years ago) link

so i'm dumb and can't find the info: new album in October and then another in May? is that what they've announced?

October is forever away :(

alpine static, Friday, 1 June 2018 03:10 (five years ago) link

yep :(

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Friday, 1 June 2018 03:41 (five years ago) link

Maybe we'll get a new song every month.
