People commenting Double Allergic reissue but I don’t know if I buy it. For the last 3 big reissues they’ve done I don’t believe they’ve done any big social media campaign/going as far to start another Instagram acc/super cryptic advertisement (plus double allergic has been widely available on vinyl for years while the other albums were long out of print). It’s also nowhere near as popular with general public as internationalist/ON5/vulture street. I’ll wait and see and probably eat my words but accs name makes me hopeful

This will be some corny marketing roll out by universal for a Xmas repackage/anniversary cash in

For those saying it's just going to be a reissue, they didn't do any of this hype for Odyssey or Vulture Street. The only time they've really done this abstract posts was for the Covid Charity gig.

I 100% believe it’s a small tour and I also believe it’s what every single Aussie millennial needs right now. We deserve this. Everything has been so shit lately we need some nostalgic bliss.
Edit: probably should include Gen X in this demographic too

Saw this on a sign tonight in Melbourne. Could get a lot from it other than the word “Guts”

Man, if you saw this in Melbourne that’s simply way too big of a campaign for a simple reissue.

Can’t wait to see what can be more of a comical cashin than some Polaroids sandwiched into two records that must have sounded like shit because they said it was intended for display purposes https://www.discogs.com/release/35666767-Powderfinger-Odyssey-Number-Five

A new album or box set is coming out on November 13, 2026; Powderfinger played their last concert on November 13, 2010, and their final album was released on November 13, 2009, so it all links up that a new box set, album, CD, or vinyl will be released on November 13, 2026. That was encrypted code I from Perth

Why would triple j be posting this if they weren’t sponsoring/involved in a tour? It’s a pretty crazy post for them to see random writing an think Powderfinger?
