## Key points

- Stand Atlantic recorded GODBREATH’s 11 songs live together.
- The album is the band’s first ARIA chart-topper.
- Bonnie Fraser wants rock recordings to sound more human.

## Summary

Stand Atlantic frontwoman Bonnie Fraser says she wanted the band’s fifth album, GODBREATH, to bring a more human, imperfect sound to modern rock. The Sydney group recorded all 11 tracks live together in one room, aiming to capture the energy and connection of older records; the album has become their first to top Australia’s ARIA Albums Chart.

Released on 23 October, GODBREATH also reached No. 1 on the Australian Albums Chart and No. 3 on the Vinyl Albums Chart. Stand Atlantic’s previous albums rose from No. 23 for Pink Elephant in 2020 to No. 10 for F.E.A.R. in 2022 and No. 3 for WAS HERE in 2024. Fraser says the title reflects both self-belief and arrogance, and argues that emerging musicians still need to work hard rather than rely on praise from industry figures.
