Airbourne releases sixth studio album and new music video

Australian hard rock band Airbourne has released their sixth studio album, a self-titled record marking their first full-length release since 2019’s Boneshaker. To accompany the album's arrival on September 4 via Spinefarm Records, the band has also released an official music video for the track ‘Kid In A Candy Store’.

The album was recorded in Australia, primarily at Music Farm Studio near Byron Bay and Hothouse Studios in Melbourne. The production team included producer Brian Howes, engineer Mike Fraser, mixer Zakk Cervini, and mastering engineer Ted Jensen. The recording process utilized vintage equipment, including a Neve console from Albert Studios used by legendary acts like AC/DC.

Band members Joel and Ryan O’Keeffe, along with Justin Street and Brett Tyrrell, noted that the sessions involved various challenges, including technical issues with vintage gear and severe weather conditions, such as a tropical storm that influenced the track ‘Here She Comes’.
