In just under a week The 1975 release the last of four EPs that will preceed their debut album, scheduled for release in September. We've already heard the EP's thumping lead single, 'The City' - which we were very honoured to premiere - as well as the echoey dream-pop of 'Haunt // Bed' . Now comes 'fallingforyou'. When we've chatted with the band they've been keen to express that these EPs showcase two very different sides of the band: the radio friendly and the opaque; the atmospheric. This certainly falls into the latter [...]
The 1975 are coming to the end of a series of EPs before the release of their self-titled debut album in September. So far, each of the three EPs have centered around a belting radio-ready single - The City (version 1), Chocolate, Sex - with the remaining tracks allowing the group to indulge their love of more slow-burning, ambient songwriting. It would seem that EP four - literally called IV - is no different. We've already helped premiere the re-recorded version of ' The City ', the release's radio moment, and now comes 'Haunt [...]
The birth of a fresh month is upon us, we are brought into May with a brand new Robb Bank $ single, with a surprising feature from former Cool Kid Sir Micheal Rocks. Along with this song is the announcement that Bank$ will be releasing a new bundle of music before Year of the Savage will be liberated. It's called " The City " and it'll be coming sooner than later, the same thing he said about YOTS last year. I'm left slightly unimpressed, there's plenty of whit and banter that makes this another shining example of [...]

Words by Tom Johnson There are fewer more evocative instruments than the vocal chords of Mark Kozelek . As the voice of Sun Kil Moon and Red House Painters , his deep, worn and foggy croon has transfixed me since I first discovered it, as many of us probably did, on his much-heralded Ghosts Of The Great Highway LP. Upon discovery, I'd never heard anything like that record before. Beautiful and bruised acoustic strums sat right next to fourteen-minute, droney, alt-folk...THINGS...that weave together ginormous clouds of instrumentation, while somehow still [...]
Hem: Departure and Farewell - Over the past fifty years, the percentage of people living in urban areas has increased drastically. In America, nearly 80 percent of us live in major metropolitan cities, leaving a scant 20 percent to tend to the sprawling rural areas that make up most of the country. That’s why it’s so refreshing to come across an artist that emphasizes the unity of urban and rural, celebrating the similarities that exist between them instead of the differences that set them apart. Hem is a band that takes [...]
Every Sunday, every week we racap the five must-hear songs from the last seven days. Last week we had Jessie Ware, Haerts, Mt Wolf, Army Navy and Little Daylights. This week, something new. Let’s do this: 1. The National - Don't Swallow The Cap "The driving drums and modestly stirring piano on ‘Don’t Swallow The Cap’ is reminiscent of 2007′s ‘Boxer’, whilst the vocals provide a profound and emotional undercurrent, this is The National fully embracing their timeless signature sound." [...]
The 1975 have swiftly become one of my favorite up and coming bands to come out of the UK in recent memory. With two dynamite EP's under their belt, it's time to focus on their official, debut album. In doing so, they've re-recorded their previous hit "The City," (off 20122s ... Read More
You may be familiar with The 1975 's "The City" off their debut Facedown EP , but little did you know that version of the song - though amazing - was merely a demo. The full-fledged mastered version of the track debuted last week on Zane Lowe and is premiering online on ATG today for your streaming pleasure. Give it a listen below. To sweeten the pot, we did a little interview with the band on everything ranging from their origins and songwriting to their recent SXSW experiences. Check out [...]
Back in June of last year The 19752s debut single landed in our inbox. An industrial, beat-driven pop song, 'The City' was an early sign of immense melodic talent. Since then the group have released further singles 'Sex' and 'Chocolate', with the latter reaching the Top 20. With their debut album scheduled for September the group have revisited their first single, rerecording it for inclusion on said album, as well as part of their fourth EP. Last week, the song that singer Matt Healy calls 'a love letter to the baffling cacophony that is teenage self exploration [...]
Manchester's The 1975 have been a topic in many new music conversations this past year. Now the band follow up their much lauded SXSW saga with a new and definitive take on "The City," the lead track (and demo) from their debut Facedown EP release from August 2012. We recently caught up with frontman Matt Healy to discuss the new recording from their upcoming (to be named) fourth EP which drops May 20th. We also discussed a bit about their debut album, affinity for vintage gear, their first SXSW experience and more. Sample "The City" and check out [...]
Thao & The Get Down Stay Down / "City" I've enjoyed watching (well, listening, really) as Thao Nguyen 's sound has progressed over a few LPs. We Brave Bee Stings and All was a stunning debut ( "Bag of Hammers" still slays me), letting Thao and her voice and lyrics lead the way overtop rockin' but folksy guitars and drums. Know Better Learn Faster found her plugging in the guitar more often and playing around with lyrics and song structures. And now, with We The Common , she [...]
