C.O.F.F.I.N announce new album ‘Australia Stops’
C.O.F.F.I.N have announced a new album!
Titled Australia Stop, the fifth studio album from the Sydney rock ‘n’ roll band follows their 2020 effort Children In Finland Fighting In Norway and is scheduled to be released in September this year via Bad Vibrations. The album was recorded in January 2023 at The Pet Food Factory studio with producer Jason Whalley (FRENZAL RHOMB) behind the desk.
Alongside the announcement of the album, the band have released a music video for its latest single Give Me A Bite, which follows previous single Cut You Off.
Speaking about the track, vocalist and drummer Ben Portnoy comments, “Throughout a chunk of the Covid lockdowns I was still working full time on construction sites and in the art department of film sets. For weeks my Friday routine was to come home and blast this bootlegged STOOGES LP from France. It was recommended and sold to me by Ray Ahn of the HARD-ONS who works at Utopia Records. It’s made up of piecemeal demos and blown-out jams by the band, all of which are bursting with amplified energy. I was really missing jamming with my friends and showing up to our sweaty storage unit/jam space in Brookvale with new inspiration from the week’s listening. Trying to resolve this, I got on the video chat with Aaron one Friday night and we did our best to nut something out that had a sense of that sound we love so much. What’s it saying? Well, you can only get for so long without giving …without giving me a bite.”
