"You're making an aesthetic out of not doing well and mining all the bits of you you think you can sell" What a line!!
Happiness is actually a genius "opening" track. It literally plays off/reprises the melody and chord progression of The 1975!
Really did not like Notes, aside from a few tracks, but this album is really hitting the spot for me this morning.
I said it somewhere earlier, but some of these songs sound so authentically 80s. Jack’s production shines in this shit
This feels like their most digestible album. Doesn’t genre hop to the point that it’s jarring. Think this gets them a few more fans that previously wrote them off.
Not album related but I remember someone in this thread was looking for a ticket for the Boston show on November 5th, I can't make that show anymore so shoot me a message!
classic Matty groaner within the first minute of the opener, but otherwise this is an utterly gorgeous track. damn
