“We’re crazy excited to be back on home soil playing these shows in Australia. We can’t wait to be back in a room with people and seeing where the night takes us.

About No Bad Memories

The announcement comes as The Avalanches enter a particularly prolific new chapter, with their fourth studio album No Bad Memories set for release on October 16 after a run of new singles released throughout 2026.

The band have already shared 'Together' with Nikki Nair, Jessy Lanza and Prentiss, 'Every Single Weekend' with Jamie xx, 'Blue Shadows' with Karen O, 'Can’t Get Over Losing You' with Portraits of Tracy and most recently 'Far Away' with John Glacier and Khadija Al Hanafi.

Alongside the new music, The Avalanches have been increasingly active on the live circuit, appearing at Primavera Sound Barcelona and performing shows internationally, including two sold-out shows at London’s Roundhouse, where they played to more than 6,000 fans across the two nights, before returning to Australia for a series of intimate appearances. In Sydney, a surprise Club 77 show became one of the band’s most talked-about recent appearances, with fans lining the street outside the tiny Darlinghurst venue in the hope of getting inside.

The Avalanches’ No Bad Memories arrives October 16 and finds the band once again digging into the forgotten sounds and fragments of everyday life. Inspired by the strange relationship between advertising, technology and memory, the album turns old jingles, start-up sounds, obsolete hardware and audio logos into the raw material for a new Avalanches world.

As Chater explains, the record began with “rhythmic experiments using the sonic leftovers and hallmarks of the technologies we grew up with”, with recordings of hard drives, computer hardware and forgotten technologies becoming part of the album's sonic palette.
