Indie pop songs best of ‘The 1975’

The 1975’s self-titled debut is a mixed bag. Jumping from guitar-heavy indie hits to disco funk dance-floor tracks, the boys from Northern England say the varied sound of the album is due to their “lack of identity.”

That lack of identity allows a rawness to emerge, both in lyrics and music. However, despite the variation on the album, the indie pop tracks are the ones that work the best.

The album is co-produced by Mike Crossey, who has worked with The Kooks and Arctic Monkeys, and The 1975’s lyrics at times are playful and sarcastic.
