Belair Lip Bombs - Again

Belair Lip Bombs — Again

Melbourne's The Belair Lip Bombs announce their endlessly listenable new album, Again, out October 31 via Third Man Records (the first Australian release on the label). Again is the follow-up to the four-piece's 2023 debut, Lush Life, a "punchy, hook-laden rock record...straightforward in sound but borderline unassailable in its construction" (The Guardian). Again marks a new chapter for Australia's best-kept secret, who have been building a loyal local following since they first formed eight years ago with their earnestness and ultra-sticky power-pop song structures.

As the next decade rolled in, the Belair Lip Bombs fine-tuned their "limerence-rock" (as singer/guitarist Maisie puts it) aesthetic across impassioned and snappy singles. In mapping out what would become Again, the band merged their individual influences more than ever to craft a no-skips collection of indie-rock anthems. It gives the group's DIY indie-rock style a fresh coat of polish across 10 rollicking new tracks. Again was produced by the band, Nao Anzai (The Teskey Brothers), and Joe White (Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever), marking the first time the Belair Lip Bombs worked with a producer.
