That’s right, they are back, right back and have brought new music with them. it’s only taken 5 months, but finally 2018 has a band with the pedigree to trouble end of year lists.
The new single is getting a hyped up playing tomorrow on the BBC’s very on flag ship, Radio One. It seems they’ve been teasing about the 1st of June for almost a year and now it’s almost the 1st of June.
Can we bump this? Only got round to them now, second album has some properly great stuff, but their latest singles have been some of their best stuff yet can’t really wait until october to get the album, feels odd having a really conventional album release these days!
New track is so good. Got that Blue Nile downtown lights beat going. Love this band despite all the reasons I’m supposed to hate them. They’re my Counting Crows of the 2010s.
Glad to see I’m not alone in enjoying them, and agree with @anon35600300, that the new songs are good. Really like the fuzzed simplicity of the first one and the second is classic 1975.
OK so they seem to have released one of the best songs of their career as the first single off this. LIIWMI is ok but massively improved by a great vocal. The last two singles have been really boring & tiresome, ripping off despacito and J dilla between them. Pretty disappointed, but the album might just be redeemable
not sure about the new one on first listen, but enjoyed the previous one. I’m a bit nervous that they seem to be releasing two quick fire albums this year and next; an idea that normally lacks consistency.
Hey, remember when they guy from Curiosity Killed The Cat was on First Dates? It was a pretty average episode to be fair, so it might have passed you by.
I don’t want to hear it all too much before the album’s out and thats still 2 and a half months away, but yeah the new one is cool. I like that each of these songs could easily be different bands and they’re not exactly original but they do it well.
