The album starts to wind down with goose-bump provoking ballads “Paris” and “Nana”, both story-telling songs that you have to listen to because they speak for themselves. The lyric “Speaking like I’m bigger than my body” from “This Must Be My Dream” is such a perfect description of the approach The 1975 has: to never put themselves in a box and instead embrace the idea that they are apart of a bigger and constantly expanding universe. Songs such as “Somebody Else” that are heavily infused with lyrical repetition manage to not lose their impact or meaning, in fact, songs like this are the ones you might find yourself keeping on repeat by discovering new layers to with each listen. The band has found a way to create very dynamic songs that sound effortless. “The Ballad of Me and My Brain”, “Loving Someone”, and “The Sound” will having you looking up which festival the band is on closest to you just so you can experience their infectiousness live.

While the album never loses your attention, it will let you temporarily lose your mind in the all or mostly instrumental tracks “Please Be Naked”, “Lost My Head”, and the self-titled track, which have potential to be a soundtrack in movies, right alongside pro composers like Explosions In The Sky (but if not they could be soundtracks for your life). In “If I Believe You,” the listener is taken to church complete with a choir and introspective lyrics that make you feel as though you are eavesdropping on Matty Healy’s confessional.

The band’s ability to take an 80s sound and make it modern with the addition of synth pop is incredibly unique it makes them irreplaceable in a music scene that seems to have constant turnover. “She’s American” exemplifies the freedom that The 1975 gave themselves on this record to play with genres, time periods, vocal techniques, and even instruments. None of this can prepare you for “Change Of Heart” which will be a dreamy deja vu for long time listeners with lyrics such as “You used to have a face straight out of a magazine / Now you just look like anyone / I just had a change of heart”, tying back to “Robbers” and “She Way Out.” “The 1975” gives you a minute to transition from their previous release before you are hit unexpectedly with the instant anthem single “Love Me,” which carries its R&B vibe into “UGH!”. Each of the 17 songs is completely vulnerable The 1975 have taken quite a risk and the result shows that it was one worth taking. Every song is tremendous and immediately fills up the space it is played in, whether that be your mind, your bedroom, a city or an arena.

I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it is a masterpiece a true reminder that music is art, especially when it is accompanied by strong aesthetic visuals and a bold but consistently poetic spoken frontman.
