Dirty Hit (2018) EU
The 1975 follow-up 2016's I Like it When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It, with their third album, A Brief Enquiry Into Online Relationships, which is introduced by the previously released singles "Give Yourself A Try," "TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME" and "It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)."
Singer Matty Healy on the new 15-track record to NME: "Our first three albums are the story of a person; it's always kind of been my story. It spanned adolescence to maturity, success and trying to mediate the two, and the third one is where we are now." He ambitiously adds to Uproxx: "If you look at third albums, [Radiohead's] OK Computer or [The Smiths'] The Queen Is Dead, that's what we need to do. I want a legacy. I want people to look back and think our records were the most important pop records that a band put out in this decade."
