C.O.F.F.I.N Release New Album “Australia Stops”

C.O.F.F.I.N‘s fifth full-length studio album is the highly-anticipated follow-up from their monumental 2020 release, Children In Finland Fighting In Norway. Recorded at The Pet Food Factory studio with producer Jason Whalley (Frenzal Rhomb), Australia Stops is a record that showcases a collection of diverse and gripping new works that highlight the band’s evolution into more melodious, 1970’s Australiana and boogie rock and roll. Frenzied, high-voltage guitars, thumping rhythms, flowing melody and clever, captivating lyrics exhibit an undeniable progression in composition and songwriting, while still unmistakably the C.O.F.F.I.N that fans world-wide have come to worship over their 18-year lifespan.

For those who are no strangers to the Australian highways, Australia Stops may be best recognised as words donned on the back of truck mud flaps. To C.O.F.F.I.N, Australia Stops are words that became a polysemous idea and observation on Australian society, culture, art, politics and progression. While the theme Australia Stops poses political questions and ideals, it also synchronously shines light on the eminence of community, the healthy beating heart of art and music, the beautiful landscapes and divergent nature surroundings held dear within Australia. With this, Australia Stops is neither a fully positive or negative elucidation of this country. It is a celebration of the things we are lucky to have, while always trying to encourage and inspire those around us to try and do better.

Australia Stops is now available via Damaged Record Co. in Australia, Goner Records in North America and Bad Vibrations in Europe.
