I don’t really like the 1975 - I’ve tried a few times and revisited them recently after this forum seems certain they’ll be there. 
 

Still a 2/10 band for me however good they supposedly are live, I won’t be there. 
 

I don’t disrespect them or their fans because as with all music - people will love them and that’s good for them. 
 

I won’t be watching them and the great thing is - I dislike them so much that it makes my decision to be elsewhere so easy 

Same here. Can’t for the life of me work out why they are considered headline material, in my humble opinion they’re bang average at best, but I’m a lot older than your average attendee these days I guess. Don’t think it’s an age thing though, they’re just very poor. Constant cliche, well worth repeating though, there’ll be plenty else on elsewhere.

Yet by all metrics, they are a worthy headliner.  5 UK number one studio albums ticks the box for a start. 

 

I'm afraid this is just down to personal taste.

Similar band that seemingly loads like by sales and gig attendance and yet nearly everyone you speak to thinks they are pure unadulterated shite?

 

scratching my head, nearest I’ve got is Blossoms.

 

was going to say Radiohead but I will not have those legends compared to the f**king 1975

Not a fan of the vast majority of The 1975's music, but what I seen of them at TRNSMT last year was terrific. Would have stayed for the whole thing if I wasn't a bit iffy about getting home.

 

 


I watched about 20 minutes and they were decent, much better live than on record. They had a big crowd too. Still won’t be watching them at Glastonbury as I wasn’t inclined to ever listen to them again but they’ll be a solid headliner

And many older attendees (well, me at least) would not call Charli XCX, Bicep, Fred Again or Chappell Roan exciting.

 

But I'm surek some will.

 

Chappell is starting to win me over...

Blasphemy against who?  Both acts are fronted by wrong 'uns, but at least The 1975 aren't likely to play anything as honking as Flashbulb Eyes when they headline.

I like The 1975 but they got songs that are equally cringe as some of Arcade Fire's work.

 

Also, Win Butler is an abusive character whereas Healy is just a moron. Hell, Glasto had Axl Rose headline who's had credible sex crimes and domestic violence allegations.

I'll meet you again for a great time watching flash bang brass. Hopefully next time we don't break the stand 😂
