Are they the ones that came out about 10 years ago?
You're right! It's crazy how much time has passed since they first started. They were relatively niche back then.  
How were you first exposed to them? Did you hear them on the radio?
My best friend actually introduced me to them. She was obsessed, haha.
How would you describe them? Pop? Rock? Alternative?
I would describe them as indie pop. They've certainly got some alternative elements to their sound, but they are mostly a pop band. Though their latest album might be the other way around. 
Tell me about their videos, what's different about them or what do you like?
Well for their latest album, they actually commissioned some graphic artists to create videos according to their own interpretations of the songs. Most of them were quite trippy, haha. Their video style, much like their music style has evolved quite a bit, but the common thread is how they are able to tell a story with the visuals. 
What band or bands would you compare them to?
I'm not sure. They have a lot of 80s, and recently, 90s influence in their music. So I would say a lot of the late 80s synth bands, and some of the alternative pop bands of the 90s. 
What's your favorite song by The 1975?
My favorite is probably "Somebody Else" I think it is the ultimate representation of the sound and video style of the band.
Have you seen the music video for that? It is trippy. It reminds me of David Lynch.
