" The 1975 may be a bunch of really cute British dudes in a band, but don&amp;#039;t call them a boy band. These serious rock and rollers are setting themselves apart in the music scene with their refreshing &amp;#039;80s-inspired sound. Kick-starting their band while they were in high school, the talented foursome has been playing together for 10 years. You&amp;#039;ve probably heard their hit song &amp;quot;Chocolate&amp;quot; from their self-titled debut album, but if not, download their music ASAP! With their music sky-rocketing up the charts and the guys hitting up the festival circuit this summer (pictured here at Governors Ball!), The 1975 are on their way to becoming music&amp;#039;s next big indie band\u2014and now the guys are giving you the scoop on their music, celeb crushes, and working with 1D, right here!  On their Biggest &amp;quot;OMG&amp;quot; Moment:  &amp;quot;We got [to play] with The Rolling Stones last year, which was crazy. We couldn&amp;#039;t really believe it, really. We try to stay grounded, but the hardest thing is to actually absorb the moments that you&amp;#039;re supposed to treasure,&amp;quot; the boys revealed.  On The Inspiration Behind Their Debut Album: &amp;quot;It was just a scrapbook of conversations from when we were teenagers, and we kind of wanted to project it like an &amp;#039;80s movie soundtrack.&amp;quot; On Their Craziest Fan Moment: With their seriously cute rocker looks, it&amp;#039;s no surprise that the boys admitted they&amp;#039;ve &amp;quot;got, like, briefcases full of bras&amp;quot; from fans. But in case you&amp;#039;ve sent a special gift to the guys, you&amp;#039;ll be happy to know that they keep them all! &amp;quot;We keep everything. We keep absolutely everything. But we can&amp;#039;t fit everything in our [apartment] anymore. It&amp;#039;s too much stuff!&amp;quot; said Matthew. The coolest thing they&amp;#039;ve ever gotten? &amp;quot;[Puzzles] of our own faces. That was pretty cool.&amp;quot; On Working With One Direction: After news broke that lead singer Matthew was in the studio writing with 1D&amp;#039;s Niall Horan, the Internet freaked out. While you probably won&amp;#039;t hear the guys jamming out together anytime soon, you may hear their lyrics on 1D&amp;#039;s next album. &amp;quot;I went into the studio with [Niall] one night,&amp;quot; Matthew confirmed. &amp;quot;[We] worked out a couple of ideas\u2014whether they want to use the song or not, we&amp;#039;ll see.&amp;quot; We&amp;#039;ll just speak for the rest of the world when we say we REALLY hope they use it. On Their Celeb Crush: Like the rest of the world, the guys are into &amp;quot;Fancy&amp;quot; superstar Iggy Azalea. &amp;quot;We like Iggy,&amp;quot; Matthew revealed. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve met her a couple of times. She&amp;#039;s very sweet.&amp;quot; On Writing Songs: From writing the lyrics to putting their words to music, the boys take it all super seriously. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a very complicated process the way that we write, because we do everything,&amp;quot; the guys said. &amp;quot;We come across as this very accessible, easy band, but it&amp;#039;s not easy to do what we do.&amp;quot;  One thing is for sure, we fully appreciate ALL of their hard work, and for giving us tunes like &amp;quot;Girls&amp;quot; that make our ears melt.
