Are The 1975 About To Drop New Music?
Everyone's favourite indie-pop rockers are teasing their new album online...
The 1975 have been teasing new music for a while but, in the words of Matt Healy himself, "it's happening.."
Following a social media white-out (think blackout but it's all white and pretty instead), the band's lead singer has tweeted the above mysterious announcement/warning to their fans.
While they have repeatedly stated their third album Music For Cars will be released on June 1st this year, new music of some kind is expected imminently.
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
I can't believe I forgot your name
Oh baby won't you come again?
She said "I've got a problem with your shoes and your tunes
But I might move in and I thought that you were straight
Now I'm wondering"
You're so conceited
I said that I love you
What does it matter if I lie to you?
I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through
So don't you tell me that you just don't get it
'Cause I know you
And I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
It's not about reciprocation it's just all about me
A sycophantic, prophetic, Socratic junkie wannabe
And there's so much skin to see
A simple Epicurean Philosophy
And you say I'm such a cliche
I can't see the difference in it either way
And we left things to protect my mental health
But you call me when you're bored
And you're playing with yourself
You're so conceited
I said that I love you
What does it matter if I lie to you?
I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through
So don't you tell me that you just don't get it
'Cause I know you
And I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound
I know the sound, of your heart
In November last year Healy got fans' hopes up by seemingly confirming an EP would be released before the end of 2017, however it turned out to be their first live album instead.
Whether or not the original Music For Cars release date has been brought forward, the lead single could certainly be released now as their last album campaign launched months before it dropped.

After the false promise of the EP we hope that a statement promising imminent action like "It's happening.." really means we're about to get something. After all, New Music Friday is tomorrow...
Plus, since mid-December the band has been sharing daily photos from the studio, showing the different members in different stages of recording their third LP.
Anticipation for their third album is at an all-time high after their second album I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It solidified them as one of the UK's best bands.
Come on, boys - give us something. We need it!

And at first, I thought it was a lie
I took all my things that make sounds
The rest I can do without
I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
I'm looking through you
While you're looking through your phone
And then leaving with somebody else
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
And c'mon baby (I know)
This ain't the last time that I'll see your face
And c'mon baby (I know)
You said you'd find someone to take my place
I just don't believe that you have got it in you
'Cause we are just gonna keep doing it every time
I start to believe in anything you're saying
I'm reminded that I should be gettin' over it
I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
I'm looking through you
While you're looking through your phone
And then leaving with somebody else
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul
'Cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul
'Cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul
'Cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul
'Cause we're never alone
I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
I'm looking through you
While you're looking through your phone
And then leaving with somebody else
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
(I know, I know, I know)
(I know, I know, I know)
(I know, I know, I know)
(I know, I know, I know)
