Top voted comments:

"The 1975's 3rd album 'A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships ' is quite simply a stunning album and clearly one of 2018's best albums.

The album is a perfect commentary on the condition of the always online connected millennial and their struggles. For proof look no further than this line from "Give Yourself a Try"

'I was 25 and afraid to go outside / a millennial that baby-boomers like'

This line resonated so strongly with me as my eldest daughter is a 19 yo millennial and she is literally afraid to go outside as her life is lived vicariously staring at a screen

Any commentary that this is anything other than a great album is straight up wrong , it has so many great tracks: the pillar track "Give Youself a Try" , the beautiful acoustics of " Be My Mistake" , the dripping sarcasm and online commentary of "The Man Who Married a Robot" , the absolutely beautiful strings of "Inside Your Mind" , the smokey piano bar ballad "Mine" to jaw dropping closer "I always Wanna Die" . No , this is a cracking release

This album is part A in a 2 part release with part B 'Notes on a Conditional Form' arriving in 2019 , we wait with bated breath for its arrival

This is what music should sound like in 2018 - well produced , smart , sassy , angry, confused , love lorn and varied like a mixed tape

Brilliant"

"Best album by The 1975 so far and definitely their most consistent. They continue to experiment with different soundscapes and dynamics very effectively with several songs even having a jazzy feel to them. Topical, humorous, yet insightful lyrics that are easy to relate to. Definitely one of my favorites of 2018

Favorite tracks: Love It If We Made It, TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME, It's Not Living (If It's Not With You), I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes)"
