SPILL NEW MUSIC: DOPE LEMON ANNOUNCES FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM ‘GOLDEN WOLF’ OUT MAY 9 VIA BMG

DOPE LEMON ANNOUNCES FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM GOLDEN WOLF OUT MAY 9

BMG

DOPE LEMON announces their highly anticipated fifth album, Golden Wolf, set for release on May 9th via BMG. The album blends introspection with expansive sonic landscapes, fusing indie rock and psychedelic soul to reveal DOPE LEMON at their most honest and vulnerable yet. In addition to the album announcement, DOPE LEMON – the award-winning project of acclaimed Australian musician Angus Stone – has also released the album’s second single, “Electric Green Lambo” and music video. The artist will also be returning to North America this spring for performances at SXSW, BottleRock and Bonnaroo — look for additional dates soon!

Golden Wolf invites listeners to contemplate the choices they’ve made, the paths they’ve left behind, and those that lie ahead. Following four studio albums—including the ARIA-nominated Kimosabè—Golden Wolf peels back layers of memory and imagination, crafting a rich and evocative listening experience.

Confident, smooth, and irresistibly cool, ‘Electric Green Lambo’ is the perfect introduction to the world of Golden Wolf. Paired with soulful lyrics and sophisticated production, the track embodies the bold sonic evolution listeners can expect from the full album. Each new release from DOPE LEMON draws fans deeper into Stone’s immersive world, where music becomes a gateway to another realm.

“‘Electric Green Lambo’ is like stepping into a lucid dream — part reckless adventure, part hazy nostalgia,” notes DOPE LEMON. “It’s about chasing untamed energy, getting lost in neon and smoke, and breaking free from what holds you back. There’s this tension between wild freedom and the pull of something darker. It’s raw, dripping with mood, and, like the ride itself, unapologetically slick. Buckle up.”

Golden Wolf marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for DOPE LEMON. While Kimosabè reflected on Stone’s youth and the paths that shaped him, this album grapples with the question of what lies ahead. Moving effortlessly between sun-soaked rock and shimmering nocturnal grooves, the album invites listeners to savour the journey rather than rush to the destination. Like a vast desert landscape, the album is both stark and stunning — a place where time slows, and you can lose yourself completely.

Golden Wolf will be available everywhere on May 9th via BMG. Pre-save HERE.
