The 1975 have announced the title and tracklist of their new album.

Entitled Being Funny in a Foreign Language, the band’s fifth studio album will feature just 11 tracks.

Fans have shared their surprise over the number of tracks on the album, with The 1975 having built a reputation for long albums with significantly longer tracklists.

“It’s so short nooooo”, wrote one fan on Twitter.

Another tweeted, “holy s***, 10 tracks only this is like the complete opposite of NOACF”, alluding to the group’s 22-track 2020 album Notes on a Conditional Form.

Retweeting the news, someone else wrote: “Very surprised it doesn’t have 17381929 songs on it”, whilst another joked: “I’m sorry… a @the1975 album that isn’t 37 tracks long?”

“What do you mean there are *only* 11 tracks on a 1975 album?! If it’s not at least 2 hours long then I don’t want to know” said one Twitter user.

Frontman Matty Healy also took to Instagram last night (28 June) to share an intro snippet from their forthcoming single “Part of the Band” released on 7 July.

The single was originally teased when black and white posters of Healy started appearing around London.

The tracklist for Being Funny In A Foreign Language can be found below:

“The1975”

“Happiness”

“Looking For Somebody (To Love)”

“Part of the Band”

“Oh Caroline”

“I’m In Love With You”
