The 1975 will release their highly-anticipated second album I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it on February 26 via Dirty Hit/ Interscope Records. I like it when you sleep… is the follow-up to the quartet’s million-selling self-titled debut. The latest instant grat track “Somebody Else,” premiered yesterday as Zane Lowe’s World Record on Beats 1.
The band’s second album was recorded in Los Angeles and produced by Healy and Daniel alongside production collaborator Mike Crossey. It distills their love of 80s sonics into something that sounds impossibly now, a record that shifts between shimmying guitar grooves (“She’s American,” “Love Me”), experimental electronic soundscapes (“I like it when you sleep…,” “Please Be Naked”) and cascading, adventurous pop songs (“If I Believe You,” “Lostmyhead,” “The Sound”) whilst always sounding part of the same whole.
