The organisation’s No Music On A Dead Planet campaign has previously been backed by the likes of Billie Eilish and Foals, while shirts have been designed by big names such as Thom Yorke, Joy Division artist Peter Saville and many others.

Music Declares Emergency or MDE for short is an independent group that Launched in July 2019, They have no party political or commercial affiliations and use the power of music to promote cultural change and create a greener, fairer, better future. MDE represents all areas of the music industry regardless of genre, role, gender, race or sexuality and is led by individuals united by a concern for the prevention of climate change.

The 1975’s design, which comes in black and white t-shirt variations as well as on a white hoodie, is based around their rectangle logo, bearing the ‘No Music On A Dead Planet’ slogan alongside the words: “The 1975 for MDE.”

The band along with the campaign page shared on their social media an example of the white t-shirt variation. It simply shows a video of a multi-coloured tie-dye background with the logo and slogan slowly fading in before we then get a glimpse at the t-shirt.

This isn’t the first time The 1975 have joined forces with MDE as this comes after the band helped fans recycle their old t-shirts by screenprinting new The 1975 logos on them at a pop-up shop at Reading Festival in 2019. They’ve also discussed global warming in their music. The opening track of their latest album, ‘Notes on a Conditional Form’, features teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg.

Speaking of their most recent collaboration, the band said: “This November, the fate of the planet will be decided at COP26, The UN Climate Change Conference. We are proud to be supporting Music Declares Emergency and their #NOMUSICONADEADPLANET campaign as they fight to ensure a greener future for all.”

This week, Brian Eno has also spoken about The 1975 and Coldplay’s efforts to tackle climate change, while calling for “a revolution” in the wider music industry’s approach.

The musician/producer appeared as a guest on the second season of the Sounds Like A Plan podcast, hosted by journalist Greg Cochrane and Music Declares Emergency co-founder and Savages drummer Fay Milton.
