At long last, Australia’s premier indie-rockers Spacey Jane have announced their third studio album is on its way. Ahead of If That Makes Sense, due out on May 9, the quartet is offering fans a taste of what’s to come with their new track and music video for “All The Noise.”
Lead vocalist Caleb Harper shares, “‘All the Noise’ was mostly written in a hotel room in Sydney having landed in Australia for the first time in 6 months. I suppose there was something about being down under again that made my version of the story of the beginning of my life feel so vivid.”

He continues, “It’s angry, but not at someone, and it’s sad because I can’t quite get to the bottom of what or who made me. It might be my favorite riff of Ashton’s [Hardman-Le Cornu, guitar] and the tightest Peppa [Lane, bass] and Kieran [Lama, drums] have ever locked. It’s gonna be so fun live and we’re beyond excited to be sharing our first new music in over a year.”
Both the track and its accompanying visuals convey a nuanced, chaotic melancholy. Mark our words, Spacey Jane is about to gain icon status with this album rollout. We can’t wait for “all the noise” to come. Check out the new single and music video below.
Regarding If That Makes Sense, Spacey Jane shares, “This album isn’t trying to be anything in particular. Sometimes it is sure of itself and other times it whispers uncertainty. It feels like a contradiction of forgiveness and anger, love and breakdown and that’s what I was trying to reconcile in the title.”
They add, “It’s hard to give it a theme other than an overwhelming sense of confusion and a less than successful attempt to tie up emotional loose ends. We went to the U.S., we put our faith in new collaborators and finished making a self-funded record without a label home for it. We stepped off the cliff every day and loved it and we have never been happier with our work than we are now.”
