Today, alternative Australian band Stand Atlantic share news of their fifth studio album GODBREATH, to be released on Friday, October 23 via Virgin Music Group. Out now, the new single LUCID provides the next glimpse into the psyche of an act that knows exactly who they are and where they want to go.
The last decade together has seen Stand Atlantic shift perceptions, push boundaries and find new ways to make alternative music shimmer. A collection that feels wonderfully fierce and refreshingly free, GODBREATH sees the band venture into uncharted waters, yet they have never felt closer to home. Genuine feeling shines across the record – from the uncompromising, stream-of-consciousness songwriting of Bonnie Fraser, to the symbiotic musicianship captured in the live tracking of each recording. Littered with as many timeless and timely bangers, pulling as much from turn-of-the-century pop-rock vibrancy as modern-day pop-punk bounce, it is a body of work seeing them audaciously step out of their comfort zones while connecting with their truest selves.
Fraser says, “To me, GODBREATH means being the most authentic version of yourself. It’s someone who will do whatever they need to do to get shit done. It’s the consequence of those moments when you’re really leaning into what you do, and you feel on top of the world. When being that honest and open just creates this whole other thing within you. It’s about speaking and owning your truth.”
