With two months to go until their new album Notes on a Conditional Form arrives on April 24, The 1975 on Wednesday released another new song.

"The Birthday Party" arrived today, premiering first on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show. Frontman Matty Healy also seemed to suggest he isn't sure what the next phase of the band itself looks like, but he told Lowe the members are already planning solo records.

"I think that there's an obvious end to an era with Music for Cars, just because like, we've come to the end of a decade," he said. "Like, culture is moving. The 1975 has to be a slightly different thing in like, I don't know what, like two years, you know. It just will naturally be ... The 1975 doesn't really operate without each other. So I mean, I'm not giving people excuses. One thing that I know that we're gonna do is that I'm doing a Matty record and George [Daniel] is doing a George record. And we're gonna produce each other's records. So that's gonna happen. Yeah, that, there you go."

Healy has long said the future of The 1975 is unclear after this next record, saying back in 2017 it would be "the end of an era," but he has previously clarified that didn't mean the band was breaking up.

The video for "The Birthday Party" arrived today shortly after the song was released. The clip is a virtual reality experience with Healy getting a digital detox and experiencing a world of memes and waterless rivers, with he and his bandmates performing without instruments before Healy tries to kiss a digitized version of himself.
