The 1975 are back! After wiping their socials clean and announcing a track-list (that we tried our best to interpret), the band have finally dropped new music: 'Part Of The Band' is their first new music since 2020's Notes On A Conditional Form.

'Part Of The Band' is a special introduction to the forthcoming fifth studio album Being Funny In A Foreign Language, which also gets a release date and cover art today. The track sees Matty Healy exercising his singer-songwriter muscles, singing softly over an exciting bustle of sounds that incorporate the tender moments on I like it when you sleep for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it, but stripping away much of the synth grandstanding. This one is a very exciting piece that shows a genuine move into new terriroty for the Manchester band.
