It's the sound of a band going full circle. After experimenting with synths and autotune on 2024's SODA, Group Therapy sees The Rubens return to their roots - guitar-driven, recorded live in the room, and made with a mindset of getting it right the first time rather than fixing it later. Produced once again by Konstantin Kersting (Spacey Jane, DMAs, Genesis Owusu), this time working alongside the band in person at their Camden studio, it's their most authentic record in years.
The album takes its name, in part, from lead singer Sam Margin's own journey through sobriety and therapy during the making of the record - and the idea that music, at its best, is a shared experience. "How do people often experience music? Together," says keyboardist Elliott Margin. "Live shows are our favourite part of being in a band. That's pretty much group therapy for us."
Fans have already had a taste of the record with singles Goanna, Are You Getting High and Love Me America - the latter a sprawling, guitar-driven love letter to America inspired by the band's earliest, wide-eyed trips to the US as a young band courted by major labels.
Following five studio albums that have each debuted in the ARIA Top 5, and singles like Never Ever, Live in Life and Hoops going triple-platinum, The Rubens' Group Therapy Tour is the sound of a band, fifteen years in, still finding new things to say.
Group Therapy is out worldwide on October 16th, 2026
