Australian indie rock duo Armlock have unveiled Amazing, their third LP, alongside the new single “Lifer.” Run For Cover will issue the album on February 5, 2027. Its 10 tracks include the previously shared songs “Half Time” and “Strobe.”

Members Simon Lam and Hamish Mitchell described “Lifer” as possibly their simplest song yet. They said complicated conversations in their lives had drawn them toward plain lyrics, with the song exploring how another person's confidence can help someone move forward.

The pair said they filmed the accompanying video themselves with their bass player, Geography, during a tour break in Los Angeles. They used Hollywood and a luxury car to represent prosperity and optimism, but said they could not afford a full-day rental and were allowed to sit in the car briefly.

Amazing follows their 2024 album Seashell Angel Lucky Charm. Armlock also listed February tour stops in Washington, Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Los Angeles, including an appearance at Boston's Something In The Way Fest.
