the 1975 began writing "a brief inquiry into online relationships" as early as 2015, drummer george daniel having composed "love it if we made it" that year. the following year, the band released their sophomore album, "i like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it", to positive reviews and commercial success, debuting atop the uk albums chart and the us "billboard" 200. the album brought about seven singles, three of which received a certification from the british phonographic industry. the band subsequently began working on an ep titled "what a shame" as well as a third studio album, originally to be called "music for cars" as a reference to their third ep. however, plans for the ep were dropped as the band's manager jamie oborne explained that "it’s become a much bigger idea." "music for cars" was described by lead singer matty healy as "the end of an era" and healy also revealed that he had speculated on whether it would be the band's last venture, but decided against it, stating in an interview with "dork" that "we’re not good enough to quit yet." in 2018, however, two albums, "a brief inquiry into online relationships" and "notes on a conditional form", were announced, while "music for cars" was revealed as an "era" for the band, comprising the two albums.
