If there's one band out there that's never struggled to make a statement, it's Private Function. This perhaps made them the perfect candidate for a long overdue Five Quickfire Questions interview where the jokes practically wrote themselves.

We're about a quarter of the way into 2025 and there have already been some great Australian albums that have come out. Here are our top most anticipated album drops for the rest of the year:

1. Beddy Rays are releasing their sophomore album Do What You Wanna tomorrow! Words to live by for sure.

2. The Bennies are also dropping their FIFTH 5️⃣ album tommorow, definitely proving that You Can't Put Out This Fire 🔥

3. Notorious drill rappers Onefour have certainly waited a long time to put out their debut album Look At Me Now, which drops June 13th. But with where they're at at the moment, it's definitely a very fitting title for a group at the top of the rap game.

4. CIV1C has their third album Chrome Dipped coming out on May 10th. The album promises to break new ground for the Naarm four-piece and show off a side of the band that we haven't seen before.

5. Last but not least, Aus punk rock darlings Press Club are dropping their fourth album To All The Ones I Love on May 2nd. With a title like that, it's bound to be a love letter to their ever-growing legions of fans.

If we missed any, let us know in the comments!
