THE 1975 (AND SELF-TITLED ALBUM DISCUSSION)

pauseitplayitpod@gmail.com (Joshua William) — Wed, 8 Apr 2020 05:00:27 +0000

Thank you everyone for listening to the show so far. As we all know the world is in lockdown and we're not longer able to meet up in Matt's spare bedroom to record the show, however as the show must go on we've taken our podcast recording online. We're still learning the best way to go about this and therefore the audio quality in this show isn't perfect, next week's episode the sound will be a lot better.

But in this episode, we talk about the debut album from The 1975 and the eponymous opening track

Thank you for listening
