Sounds Good Feels Good

5 Seconds of Summer

High-gloss pop-punk with an emo heart. A massive, guitar-driven record that trades boy-band tropes for arena-sized vulnerability and gritty, harmonized anthems.

It's the ultimate 'not a phase' album for anyone who grew up on pop-punk and stadium anthems.

A defiant and communal celebration of being an outsider, wrapped in loud guitars and vulnerable lyrics.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the atmospheric 'Outer Space' into the hopeful, acoustic-led hidden track 'Carry On'.
The explosive, stadium-ready chorus of 'Jet Black Heart' where the vocals reach a peak of raw vulnerability.
The Duran Duran-inspired bassline and rhythmic swagger that drives the opening of 'Hey Everybody!'.
