Everyone’s talking about The 1975’s headline set at Glastonbury – some saying it was ‘insufferable’ while others were raving about it. The band returned to Worthy Farm on Friday night to headline the Pyramid Stage, marking what鈥檚 reportedly their only show of the year. Naturally, the often divisive band’s theatrical performance sparked mixed reactions online – even from longtime fans. Singer Matty Healy opened the set holding a pint of Guinness he didn鈥檛 seem to drink, with a cigarette in the other hand. It set the tone for a performance that aimed to be memorable, if a little provocative – and some felt irksome. Early on, Healy appeared to reference his brief relationship with Taylor Swift , which made headlines in 2023. The short-lived romance is widely believed to have influenced Swift鈥檚 latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, and the frontman didn鈥檛 shy away from the connection onstage. The band had kept a low profile in recent months, but for their Glastonbury return, they clearly went all in. The debate now is whether that effort paid off – or if it all felt a bit too much. Take our poll below. The divisive singer initially made many in the audience squirm with his own self aggrandisment, saying: “What this moment is making me realise is that – yeah. This moment is making me realise. I probably am the best so I’m probably the best songwriter of my generation. A poet, ladies and gentlemen, is what I am. I wanted to remind you – this poetry, I believed in it for you.” The band then started singing their hit, Chocolate 鈥 possibly the least poetic song in their catalogue 鈥 before he then said he was joking about being a poet.

Another added: 鈥淢atty Healy carrying a pint of Guinness around to appear relatable and has not drunk a single sip in 10 minutes.鈥 A third said: 鈥淢atty Healy trolls on stage at Glastonbury: 鈥淚鈥檓 probably the best songwriter of my generation 鈥 the best, what do we say? A poet.鈥 Another said: 鈥淭he thing which makes Matty Healy so insufferable is it’s very easy to imagine that all the b*llendery he does on stage isn’t just for the performance but that he would genuinely sashay into Gregg’s reciting 14th century French poetry.鈥 Another added: 鈥淢atty Healy trying to play the archetypal rock & roller with the leather jacket, pint of Guinness and a cigarette while simultaneously performing some of the blandest music imaginable is quite the contradiction. About as rock & roll as Aled Jones.鈥 But others were loving the set- even if they had issues with the frontman One said: 鈥淪ay what you want about matty Healy but he is a SHOW MAN.鈥 Another said: 鈥淭he 1975鈥檚 music is really good, but Matty Healy really is an insufferable b*llend of a frontman!鈥 Another added: 鈥淚 do understand why Matty Healy is a polarising character but I think The 1975 are a brilliant band with sharp songwriting, brilliant diversity in sound & excellent musicianship. Still my favourites!鈥 A fourth said: 鈥淪hould have been all about the #1975 but Healy has decided to hijack it and turn in a car crash performance. You can see it in the bands faces. All he had to do was hold it together for one day and he鈥檚 failed miserably.鈥 A fifth said: 鈥淭he 1975 are actually pretty good! It鈥檚 just a shame that Matty Healy is an absolute weapon.鈥 It comes as a source has revealed to The Mirror that there was much less of a crowd for the 1975, with Lewis Capaldi and CMAT attracting a bigger number of people to the Pyramid Stage. Some fans could be heard saying it wasn’t their vibe and they headed away from the stage. Later in the show, Matty said: “”Use your platform, that’s what they say. People who watch this might be disappointed at the lack of politics in this show… We honestly don’t want our legacy to be one of politics, we want it to be of love and friendship. I don’t think we need more politics, we need more love. I know that’s really basic.” What do YOU think? Were The 1975 ‘insufferable’ at Glasto?
