“‘I Never See Her’ is about rationalizing a breakup,” says frontman Caleb Harper. “It's a conversation you have with yourself when you're delaying the inevitable and anticipating the grief. It's also about longing for a place that will hold you and keep you safe - trying to define what home means and where it is.”
Produced by Day Wave (Calum Hood, Pete Yorn, Olivia O’Brien) and mixed by Lars Stalfors, Exit Wounds was written and recorded in Los Angeles during the making of If That Makes Sense. The band's previously released track “Do You Really Love Her” hit the Viral 50 Charts in both U.S and Australia.

Produced by Mike Crossey (The 1975, Arctic Monkeys, Wolf Alice), If That Makes Sense was released this past May via Concord to widespread praise; PAPER proclaimed, “[This is] the kind of indie rock offering that makes you remember why you’d even fall in love in the first place, spelling out truths and vulnerable revelations over driving guitar parts and buoyant drums" while Paste added, “The final product is an introspective and nuanced study of [Caleb] Harper’s lyricism, as well as the band’s innate finesse when it comes to creating grandeur out of just a few timeless musical components.” FLOOD Magazine furthered, “Synth-spiked jangle-rockers Spacey Jane’s [new album is] a bold new step for the Australian quartet both instrumentally and lyrically as they explore ideas pertaining to the breaking and mending of hearts.”
In addition, the band had 5 songs in Triple J’s Hottest 100 this year (“Whateverrrr,” “All The Noise,” “Through My Teeth,” “Estimated Delivery” and “How to Kill Houseplants”), which was tied with Olivia Dean for the most entries in the countdown.

The new record follows 2022’s Here Comes Everybody and 2020’s Sunlight. The band became a hometown sensation after the release of Sunlight, topping Triple J’s annual album poll with breakout single “Booster Seat” and earning the ARIA for Song of the Year. Inspired by the success of their debut album, Spacey Jane got to work on their sophomore album, which debuted at #1 on the ARIA Charts and earned them the title of Triple J’s most played artist in 2022.
