Reviews / Album

Gloriously badass hardcore punk.

They’ve struck an absolutely perfect balance between accessible and bizarre and have yet again proven themselves capable of producing consistently impressive and imaginative music without borrowing too much from past material.

This album isn’t perfect – later tracks like Mount Of Execution drag a little – but it is far better than anyone thought it would be.

There’s space, intelligence and gentle care to be found in Tookah.

From dark verses to soaring choruses, The 1975 doesn’t get any points for originality, but is fuelled with undeniable passion and artistic vision.

Accomplished release from Australian pop punk/alternative rock group

Catchy melodies and hooks aplenty, but still plenty jagged – at the top end of their excellent canon.
