Inhale / Exhale is the fifth studio album by Australian alternative dance group Rüfüs Du Sol. It was released on 11 October 2024 through Rose Avenue and Reprise Records.
At the 2024 J Awards, the album was nominated for Australian Album of the Year.
Background and singles
Announced a month ahead of the release, on 11 September 2024, the record is said to encompass "themes that have endeared fans for over a decade", namely "romance, heartbreak, euphoria, despair", which are supposed to be delivered through "sprawling, mature soundscapes" combined with their signature electronic sounds. Inhale / Exhale marks a new chapter for the trio as they have come to "just enjoy" the process and "creating in the moment". On 21 June, the album was led by the track "Music Is Better" which "offers a window into a new creative groove for the band" and marked their first single in three years. The second single "Lately", released on 2 August, sees the combination of "heartfelt lyrics, indie vibes and a club bounce". The third single "Break My Love" was released alongside the album announcement and constitutes a testament to the "evolved sound and deep musicality" showcased by the band. "Pressure" was released on 27 September 2024.
