Australian duo Armlock have announced their new album, Amazing, arriving February 5, 2027 via Run For Cover Records. Along with the announcement, Simon Lam and Hamish Mitchell have shared the lead single “Lifer” and its accompanying video.
Following 2024’s Seashell Angel Lucky Charm, the 10-song record continues the band’s stripped-back mix of melodic indie rock and electronic production. Think clean guitar lines, understated beats and warm, intimate vocals, with shades of Pinback and Alex G.
Of “Lifer,” the duo say they wanted to keep the words unusually plain and direct. The song is about finding confidence in someone else and moving forward together. The video was filmed by the band and their bass player during a day off in Los Angeles.
Previously released singles “Half Time” and “Strobe” also appear on Amazing. The album was recorded between Lam and Mitchell’s studios and is available to pre-order through Run For Cover Records.
