It’s definitely been quite a long time since I’ve done one
of these posts. Part of that is because
I’ve been stuck in quite a rut when it comes to discovering new people and
groups in any capacity, and another reason is I just haven’t thought to
introduce you guys to the great and awesome new people that I have come
across. Nevertheless, today I want to
talk to you all about the incredible band that I discovered thanks to
MissGlamorazzi and Against the Current (on Youtube), The 1975.
Famous for the hit single, “Chocolate,” The 1975, comes from
Manchester, United Kingdom. The 4
members met in school in 2002, and consist of Matthew Healy (vocals, guitar),
Adam Hann (guitar), George Daniel (drums), and Ross MacDonald (bass).
Total, the group has released four EPs. Their self-titled debut album was released on
September 2, 2013 and debuted at #1 in the UK on September 8, 2013, ahead of
the Nine Inch Nails comeback album.
Overall, The 1975 is unlike anything I’ve ever listened to
and stuck with. I’ve “dabbled” in this
typed of music before, but have never planned to see the group in concert as
I’ve done with this group. I have had
the same songs on a constant loop since September, and that really says
something. The 1975 has taken a front
row in my “music agenda” and has pushed all other music to the back
burner. Be warned through- some songs
are marked as “Explicit” on Spotify. And
just a word to the wise, this music isn’t truly appropriate for all ages, even
the songs that aren’t marked.
Here are some links to some videos that I think you may
enjoy as well as the band’s official website!
Until next time, Happy Reading (and listening!),
Allison
