The 1975 have returned to social media, amid heavy speculation they'll be dropping something new next month.
Making their first post to Twitter and Instagram in months, the band state: "Your new album. Your new era. Your old friends."
The post comes alongside a new, rather sauve looking, photo.
A press release alongside the news states: "The 1975 have released two new photos, taken by collaborator Samuel Bradley, and have marked July 7th as a significant date for the band in advance of their fifth studio album. "
News
first started to spread of the band's imminent comeback earlier today, when they updated their website and personal profile pictures online. That was quickly followed by a return to Twitter and Instagram for the main band accounts - they were originally deactivated earlier this year - and a refresh for their Spotify profile page.
Shortly after that,
fans started to spot fly posters in the real world, featuring a photo of frontman Matty Healy and that date - 7th July.
News earlier this year broke that the band had been recording their 5th album, and less than
subtle hints a video for a first track has been recorded.
