Officially headlining Glastonbury, and they've debuted a new logo today on socials - so I imagine new music is coming very soon!

They're so hit and miss for me that it's difficult to get excited about new music from them. There's at least one song I really like from each era though!

Waiting for a new style of Matt and their music.

NYC concert was one of the best lives in 20s.

Wish them only the best in their carreer.

I always look forward to The 1975 releasing new music, but despite the Glastonbury headliner slot, they do appear to have lost some of their appeal I think.

Yes, there is usually at least one major commercial radio friendly hit each era.

Their last "era" was by far their most commercially successful, tour-wise. Selling out The O2 arena 6 times, all their other arena dates (of which there were about 15 more), and a sold out Finsbury Park gig!

Why you reckon they lost appeal?

Not sure I agree with this. I can't really see them having a Top 5/10 hit unless there is a really special song which goes viral.

Suspect they might try out a stadium tour for their next tour. Easily reckon they could sell out a couple of dates at Wembley & Heaton Park/Old Trafford.

I just think that back in 2019 they were riding a wave of popularity with Brit Awards, headlining Reading and Leeds and R1 Big Weekend.

If I wore a The 1975 t shirt I would get random people telling me they were their fave band.

It just doesn't seem as "big" now for them, but that probably just comes with how long they have been around now.

I would love for them to still go out and smash it!

I felt that around 2020-2021 tbf, I think Notes On a Conditional Form harmed their momentum a lot - but Being Funny in a Foreign Language and especially their 2023 tour put them right back on track. They've never sold as many tickets in the UK before as they did that year, and sold out another arena tour at mainly the same venues exactly a year later.

They've been quiet for a while now obviously, but I think their next lead single could finally get them a Top 10 single.

In other news, 'Still... At Their Very Best (Live From The AO Arena, Manchester, 17.02.24)' is out on streaming platforms today with a physical release on 30th May!

Great to have the new version of 'A Change of Heart' on streaming, with added sax & a female verse.

Sounds like for their Glastonbury show they have curated a one off show. Looking forward to it. Feels like the new material is still some way off yet.

Indeed. They're in the middle of working on the new album according to their manager, so I expect it'll be 2026.
