Since breaking through with the debut self-titled album in 2013, The 1975 have become one of the biggest rock bands the UK has produced in the last decade.

The NME gave the album five stars out of five, describing it as “a magpie pop masterpiece.” The band have released five tracks from the record so far, including Love It If We made It, Sincerity Is Scary and Give Yourself a Try.
The band have already announced the follow-up to A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships entitled Notes on a Conditional Form will drop in Spring 2019.
