The Lost Boys
Whichever era fans were introduced to the 1975, the love that the boys share for anyone is how I’ve grown a deep connection with all four of the band members. Obviously not as personal as we wish, but in a way where they understand what we (the fans) mean and feel while listening to their albums. For most music listeners, people can hear a song without understanding it’s meaning and still enjoy it. This band has been the first to combine my emotions and excitement for everything they are.

Anyone who doesn’t have a clue who they are might think they’re chic and angsty with a band name like that. Try asking me, the person who’s had to explain that name came from a book Matty praised and that they weren’t actually born in 1975. The band members each deliver their own musical talent in creating the sounds they share with their fans. From the bass in Ross’s hands to the drums beat by George (and not forgetting Adam’s guitar patches), the interpersonal connection of sound and emotion becomes a reality for fans.

As a fan, finding a few ways to show them off to friends definitely gives my dorm room the top-tier “stan” aesthetic. Collecting and hanging up these posters is a colorful timeline of the way the 1975 has presented themselves in each of their albums. The musical shift of emotion changes incredibly over the albums. Through listening into the lyrics and sounds in each album, fans can understand that from the darkness; light will always shine through. That’s only just one message the 1975 has promised and engraved in their fans.
