The 1975

Product Information

If the 1975’s early work felt like pop music compulsively interrupted with provocations and footnotes, then Notes takes an inverse approach: It is a long, messy experiment that just so happens to peak with some of their sharpest songs. The band’s previous album, 2020’s ‘Notes On A Conditional Form’, became their fourth consecutive No. Take, for example, “If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know),” a late-album highlight and their highest-charting single to date in the UK.

Tonight (I Wish I Was Your Boy)” spills late-night heartbreak to a pitched-up Temptations sample; the exquisite “Frail State of Mind” ascends from glitchy two-step as Healy sings about a loosening sense of security. In this incarnation, they have stepped away from third-wave emo and aim for the gleaming, modular synth rock of Wolfgang-era Phoenix and M83's Hurry Up, We're Dreaming!

Oh they ran you should have seen how they ran when I was looking for somebody to love,” he sings over galloping, Springsteen-esque soft-rock, chirpy backing vocals and blares of 80s sax.
