Manchester-based indie-pop breakthrough artists The 1975 stunned fans and critics with their sophomore album in 2016. The wordily titled 'I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It' topped both U.S. and U.K. charts, landed them a Brit Award for Best British Group and put them on the shortlist for the highly coveted Mercury Prize.

Two years have passed since then and The 1975 are looking to ride the wave as the release date of their highly anticipated third studio LP, 'A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships' approaches shortly. Will the band successfully push the bar higher and outdo themselves yet again? Will the Mercury Prize nomination translate into a win in 2019? What's going to be different this time around? Here's a breakdown of everything we know so far about the album and what to expect.
