The 1975 have just released the second single from their forthcoming second album and it goes by the short and to the point title UGH!. The single is taken from that album you can never remember the name of and is now streaming via spotify and apple music.
UGH! is a pretty funky tune and other than their first new single, Love Me, it sounds more like Prince than Bowie.
Frontman Matt Healy describes the track as “something that goes back to the early foundation of how we write music as The 1975,” however, Healy has claimed in earlier interviews that is about him “being flippant about cocaine.” – And indeed there is a bit of self reference in lines such as “the kick won’t last for long / but the song only lasts 3 minutes.”
I Like It When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It is out via DirtyHit on February 26th and is available for pre-order as of now.
