Australian psych pop outfit Nice Biscuit return with the sonic guidance SOS, their sophomore full-length following their 2018 debut LP Digital Mountain and 2021 EPs Create Simulate and Passing Over. The album is about finding calm and balance in a chaotic world—each of the nine new songs is a different way of dealing with these turbulent times full of crises, but the atmosphere and vibe that they radiate are at least as important. Billie Star (vocals, keys, percussion), Grace Cuell (vocals, keys, percussion), Nick Cavendish (bass, keys, percussion), Jess Ferronato (guitar, vocals, keys, flute, percussion) and Kurt Melvin (drums) lay down a fuzzy groove with warm synths and jangly guitars, which they pepper with both exotic and rocking influences, and always those hazy harmony vocals to keep it all together. Colorful and dreamy, hypnotic and danceable.

SOS, recorded by Jess Ferronato & Ali Richardson, is out now digitally and on vinyl LP through The Reverberation Appreciation Society / Greenway Records in North America and Bad Vibrations / Fuzz Club in Europe.
