Clever sonic move once again. And the "Downlight Lights" comparison is OTM.

Excellent song, bites "Downtown Lights" in the best way

i am bowled over by this song.
― petey v, Friday, 20 July 2018 00:11 (five years ago) link
continuum of this song is "the downtown lights" -> fictional jam & lewis remix of "the downtown lights"

We are moving to Los Angeles in 2 weeks to start making 'Notes On a Conditional Form'. By the time we play our first show in January there will be two whole The 1975 albums that will have never been played before. I'm very excited.

I'm going to hold off listening to this until the album comes out, but after their second LP won me over I'm very much looking forward to hearing it. Interview has reminded me that I still find Healy insufferable.

actively anxious over what ~creative choices~ theyll be taking in the inevitable music video for this song
― gr8080, Saturday, 21 July 2018 15:38 (five years ago) link
What an incredible single! I thought Give Yourself A Try was just good enough, but I am blown away by this one. I definitely don't mind the nod to The Downtown Lights one bit.
― kitchen person, Saturday, 21 July 2018 17:04 (five years ago) link
so confession time, I had been kind of self-fronting on the first album for a really long time, telling myself it wasn't really near the level of the second one, but over the past week I've been playing it all the time and it's finally opening itself up for me. "heart out" --> "settle down" --> "robbers" ranks up their with any of their runs
― k3vin k., Monday, 23 July 2018 19:08 (five years ago) link
I don't think the first album is anywhere near as good as the second. There's a couple of decent songs on there ('The City', 'Robbers') but Healy's vocals on things like 'Chocolate' remind me why I loathed this band for years.
― Le Baton Rose (Turrican), Monday, 23 July 2018 19:36 (five years ago) link
'chocolate' is like the best song

No Kevin, the guy who spent years cluttering this thread with repetitive denunciations of this band as the absolute worst thing to happen to recorded music is clearly best placed to now review its discography and sort the wheat from the chaff.
