5 Seconds of Summer - 5 Seconds of Summer

The self-titled debut album from 5 Seconds of Summer is a definitive staple of the twenty-tens pop-punk and power-pop resurgence. Released in twenty-fourteen under Capitol Records and the band's own Hi or Hey Records, the album was a global phenomenon, debuting at number one on the Billboard Two Hundred. Produced primarily by John Feldmann, known for his work with Blink-One-Eighty-Two and All Time Low, the record perfectly captures the band's transition from YouTube cover artists to arena-rock stars. The collection features the breakthrough lead single She Looks So Perfect and other fan favorites like Amnesia, which was co-written by the Madden brothers, and Don't Stop. This specific version includes the track Mrs. All American, which highlights the band’s high-energy, infectious songwriting style. With its blend of anthemic hooks and youthful energy, this debut solidified the quartet as one of the most successful Australian musical exports of the decade.
