In this video I unbox the deluxe edition vinyl of The 1975's album 'I Like It When You Sleep For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It'. Meanwhile, cuts like 'The City,' 'Chocolate,' and 'Sex' drive and climb like the best anthemic '80s stadium rock, roiling a host of influences into a single distinct sound that, the moment it hits your ears, becomes timeless. Much has been made of the 1975's avowed love of '80s John Hughes movies, and many of the cuts here, like the thrilling, lovesick 'Settle Down' and the sparkling 'Girls,' play with such great narrative momentum that they sound like songs culled from a Hughes soundtrack.

The band released its second album Straight Shooter in April 1975, 40 years to the month of the new deluxe edition. When rock guitars meet dancefloor synths, '80s influences become hard to deny, but while the 1975 definitely have a retro vibe (hence the name), the alchemy of how they bring those influences to bear is totally contemporary. The 2013 self-titled debut album from the 1975 is a superb album that finds the Manchester outfit poised on the brink of stardom.
