With a month until the release of their sophomore album, The 1975 has unveiled an irresistible new song "The Sound."

It's the third—and perhaps best—preview thus far from the album, I Like It When You Sleep for You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It, which is out Feb. 26.

Premiering the track Thursday evening on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show, frontman Matt Healy said "Sound" is inspired by the band's love for "music earworms," noting the song's express "confidence" as "it wears its pop on its sleeve and it's kind of unabashed."
