The Melbourne post-punk band’s long-awaited debut album is due for release on October 30 via Atlantic Records, and is available to pre-order here.
So far, they’ve already shared the emotional and lively single ‘Kick In The Shins’, which saw them explore themes of isolation and confusion. Now, they’ve shared its follow-up, the frenetic ‘Crying With You’.
The track was written during a writing retreat in California’s Joshua Tree. “We were staying at this beautiful property owned by producer Nicolas Vernhes, surrounded by desert and Joshua trees for about a week and recorded a handful of demos and jams,” frontman Noah Learmonth explained.
The track comes alongside a music video directed by Milo Hume. Check it out below.
With the album, the band continue their work with Ewan Pearson (Depeche Mode, Metronomy) and Peter Katis (Interpol, The National).

Last year, Radio Free Alice made their way onto the NME 100 list, and were described as “revitalising the distinct ’80s basslines and sharp guitar riffs of The Smiths and Joy Division”.
Back in 2024, they spoke to NME about their sound, telling us they feel seperate from the dominant voices in the alternative scene in their home country – Triple J and bands like Spacey Jane and Ocean Alley.
