While I just saw them live in an arena, I would still say The 1975 are underrated. Healy's lyrics are the vox populi, without people realizing it. We're all depressed from doom scrolling. The younger generations are setup for failure.
Despite all this, the music is so creative, upbeat, and energetic. I genuinely feel happiness form listening to this album. Its basically a no-skip album. johnmahlon
