5 Seconds Of Summer have shared the music video for ‘NOT OK’, the first single taken from upcoming album ‘Everyone’s A Star!’.
With the LP set for release on November 14 via their new label Republic Records, the video takes a gritty dive into a world of underground clubs, stretch limos, and late-night antics.
Check it out below:
On the track, Luke Hemmings has said:
“It has the older 5 Seconds of Summer energy, but it’s different—which is the whole M.O. of this chapter. Lyrically, it’s about letting out the darker side of yourself and embracing it. The song is also a nod to the band itself. We pull those sides out of each other.”
5 Seconds Of Summer’s sixth studio album was completed through 2024 and 2025 in Los Angeles and Nashville, working with the likes of Jason Evigan (Maroon 5, Benson Boone, Papa Roach), Julian Bunetta & John Ryan (Sabrina Carpenter, Teddy Swims).
On ‘Everyone’s A Star!’, Luke has shared:
“This band is made of four people who could all have their own solo albums where they do it all, sing it all, and write it all. ‘Everyone’s A Star!’ embodies all of that. We were teenagers at the beginning of 5 Seconds of Summer. We were writing with more naivete, but we said what we were thinking. As time goes on, you tend to get a bit more cautious about what you say, but I think this record has more of our original sprit—but with 15 years of wisdom and a dash of reckless abandon.”
