OK Computer, The Queen Is Dead…Music For Cars.
Matt Healy at least would one day like The 1975‘s next album to be ranked alongside some of the greatest third records, singling out the aforementioned from Radiohead and The Smiths as prime examples. “If you look at third albums, ‘OK Computer’ or ‘The Queen Is Dead’, that’s what we need to do,” he’s told Q (via NME).
”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.”
The 1975 continued their huge commercial success with last year’s I Like It When You Sleep For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It, and are already busy writing its follow-up, reportedly with an eye on a 2018 release.
