I'm listening to this one and the audio has been good about halfway through. and agreed about those two songs in particular -- he really belts on "love it if we made it" in a way you don't see much from him

This bit of me talking in an interview reads as patronising, uninformed and reductive. And to be fair it is. And I’d like to apologise....(thread) pic.twitter.com/UMO62lzVgn— matty (@Truman_Black) December 5, 2018

Nah, record is pretty cool, though I could certainly do without the post-Bon Iver "Earnest white man pants into vocoder" shtick and the "What if Kitty Pryde wrote Fitter Happier" interlude. And also, of course, the entire discourse around this record.

Finally have heard this album through twice through. The "problem" is the previously released tracks largely are my favorites, so I don't have the same urge to relisten to it as the last two albums, though I do like some of the new songs well enough - "Surrounded by Heads and Bodies" is one of their better quiet tracks and "I Always Wanna Die" is strong too (sounds like a very specific song that I can't put my finger on). But a few of these, like "The Man Who Married a Robot" and "Inside Your Mind", I don't see growing on me. I'll probably like this album a lot more in a year when I haven't heard any of the songs in a while
Oh I also somehow had never listened to "Love It If We Made It" with headphones before. It has different bass notes than I had assumed (can't hear notes that low on my laptop speakers), and a crazy good bassline in the second part of the chorus!

i thought so too for a while and i thought people were taking crazy pills for breathlessly praising it, but then i watched a live version and it clicked.

ive tried it out in different settings, watched it live as well. it plods along and his delivery is way too "we didnt start the fire" for my liking. it's ok when the hook opens up but it just reminds me of other (better) 1975 songs that came before it.
― Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Monday, 10 December 2018 17:20 (five years ago) link
Just listened to the whole album, which confirmed that it's not really my thing (the music isn't depressing enough, I don't care about the lyrics), but I liked it more than I thought I would.

This RYM review made me laugh, though:
Whoa. Like whoa. This is awful. I've rated 1,195 albums as of right now according to RYM, and this is one of the only 9 albums that I've given .5 stars. Everything about this is just... heinous, obnoxious, and annoying. After the newest 21 Pilots came out and I found myself actually enjoying it, I was excited for this album as well. I disliked Love It If We Made It as a teaser, but I was still slightly excited, but nope. It's like someone went on millennial twitter and wrote down a couple important memes and/or news items, and then put them in a horrendous sounding slog of autotune and electropop that just sounds like total shit. I don't enjoy a single track on this album except for maybe Be My Mistake, and that's just because it sounds vaguely reminiscent of an older Band of Horses song or something, although I could just be incorrect. This album is not revolutionary or exciting, it just rehashes cultural events that have happened over the past, I don't know, year? I'm surprised I didn't catch a reference to XXXTENTACION or something else equally embarrassing, although there is a Lil Peep reference somewhere on Love It If We Made It. I am a millennial, and I love when music speaks to things that are entirely millennial, but this just feels like some old dude in a production office said "Ya know what we should do?? Capitalize directly on millennial culture and the modern political-sphere without having any idea what it actually means!" It's just too absolutely cynical. It sounds like generic electropop, (I have absolutely no idea why, but I read some articles saying how experimental and avant-garde this is supposed to be) and offends me on a musical and cultural level. If you want to listen to something good and actually representative of being alive in this online age, check out Wide Awake!! by Parquet Courts, or Pure Comedy (as pretentious as it is) by Father John Misty. Listen to Chapo Trap House or some other millennial political podcast. Get high on a weeknight and watch Evangelion. Just literally do fucking anything but listen to this piece of fake "woke" garbage. This is painful and insulting to me and should be to anyone who considers themselves in tune with modern culture and respects genuine artistry and intelligence in their music. This album is how it feels when you open twitter or instagram and you see an awful meme that was cooked up by some corporation that belongs on the "Fellow Kids" subreddit. Please just go away with this pandering garbage and come back with something interesting and actually representative of the human experience for those who grew up alongside and with the internet. This album is the musical equivalent of the cultural saturation as evident with movies like the new Star Wars films and Marvel Movies. Get the pandering BS out of here, it's just awful. This isn't art, it's product. Also. Just because an album has an interlude with a robot voice in it does not mean it is "This Generation's OK COMPUTER.".5 or 1/10.

I like it and their schtick but there is an extent to which politics and life are so on the nose right now that both satire and commentary seem difficult ... the worst example of this is like idk SNL or something. in that 1975 go for a lot of commentary on ‘the times we live in’ perhaps they set themselves up for confronting that difficulty more often than most
