Manchester

The 1975

The 1975, the pop rock Manchester quartet, continue to push the boundaries.

The opening track of their latest (4th) album Notes on a Conditional Form is simply entitled The 1975 and is a call to arms from Greta Thunberg.

The 1975 with Greta Thunberg

Yes, we are in the midst of a pandemic but as the virus eases we still face the destruction of our planet. We must act now or witness a disaster so much worse than COVID-19.

Bonnaroo, the four day music and arts festival, begins today in Manchester, Tennessee.

This is the tenth year and the lineup is stellar.

In celebration of Bonnaroo, RCRDLBL has released from their archives a free download of 24 bands performing this year including Arcade Fire, Florence and the Machine, Sleigh Bells, Best Coast, Iron & Wine, and the Black Angels among others.

Featured here is Twin Shadow, the nom de plume of George Lewis, Jr., who developed his chops in Boston before reinventing himself in Brooklyn.

“I Can’t Wait” is from his debut album Forget.
