‘All The Noise’ — the first single from Spacey Jane’s third album, If That Makes Sense — sets the stage for the quartet’s most accomplished and ambitious collection to date. Written in one session and jammed out in soundcheck, ‘All The Noise’ is immediate and epic. It sees frontman, Caleb Harper, piecing together the story of his parents’ union and collapse as he is backed by a central riff that tumbles in propulsive triplets, hooks like a chorus, and rushes towards moments of space and respite.

Communication, in whatever form that takes, is a leap of faith, and on If That Makes Sense, Caleb’s trademark mode of lyrical honesty is honed to its finest point, his vulnerability revealing profound strength. It is an album that parses the big stuff: heartbreak and longing; how the past can prefigure the future; the gulf between what’s been said and what’s been done; rewriting the script. It’s the sound of a band breaking new ground. But the beauty of art is that it serves a purpose for those who make it, while offering itself up for interpretation entirely divorced from its creators. What the listener takes from Spacey Jane is for the listener alone to divine.

Formed in Perth, Western Australia, in 2016 while Caleb, drummer Kieran Lama, and guitarist Ashton Hardman-Le Cornu were still at university — with bassist/backing vocalist Peppa Lane joining in 2020 — Spacey Jane built a dedicated following the old school way, by tirelessly gigging. After releasing a couple of frenetic, scuzzy indie-rock EPs, the band’s debut full-length, Sunlight, dropped in June 2020, connecting instantly, and topping Triple J’s annual album poll with breakout single ‘Booster Seat’ scooping ARIA Song of the Year.

The swift success buoyed the quartet’s confidence. Caleb recalls when the band began writing their 2022 follow-up, Here Comes Everybody, “we sort of had our tails up, roostering a little bit, like ‘We can fucking do this!’” — and their conviction saw them through. Their sophomore album debuted at number one on the ARIA charts, and in 2022 they were Triple J’s most played artist. Overall worldwide streams currently clock in at 518 million, not to mention sold out tours cementing their formidable live reputation (in 2023 they shifted 28k tickets from headlining shows alone).

In just a few short years, Spacey Jane established themselves as one of Australia’s hottest homegrown talents, so it stands to reason that the band are broadening their horizons. Determined to push out of their creative comfort zone, If That Makes Sense began with Caleb coming to Los Angeles and challenging himself with the rigorous songwriting speed dating that’s become part of the LA’s music scene, an experience he describes as “fucking terrifying.”

Relocating so far from home and feeling “like a fish out of water” resulted in Caleb really questioning himself: “Am I reinventing myself, or just trying to dig down to the person that I am in this pretty weird environment? You can either be overwhelmed or take advantage of that.” Embracing that discomfort offered breakthroughs with new collaborators like Jackson “Day Wave” Phillips and Sarah Aarons (Lykke Li, Childish Gambino, Miley Cyrus).

Another notable break in Spacey Jane’s standard process is that, with this album, they allowed themselves the liberty of time. Rather than an album coming together in a matter of weeks, amid constant touring, on If That Makes Sense, the band simply kept writing and writing. Whittling down from nearly 40 songs, spanning almost a year of intermittent pre-production sessions, the band eventually convened in LA for eight weeks of pre-production, before heading to the studio with producer Mike Crossey (Arctic Monkeys, Wolf Alice, The 1975) for 12 weeks of recording. The time and space to play together resulted in new textural elements to their work, with the band swapping out some guitars for synths, tweaking the drum tones, and running all 13 tracks through tape to achieve the “warm rounded tones” that permeate the project.

Of the process Caleb recalls, “I think we needed to feel uncomfortable and unsure of ourselves to truly question what we were making and how to make it better.”

With its opening brooding synth, and soaring melodies steeped in melancholy, ‘Whateverrrr’ became the record’s jumping off point, a song Caleb describes as “a wound”. Lyrically the juxtaposition is arresting: A fleeting snapshot of childhood joy collides with an elemental sadness as he reflects on how he was raised — a riptide that still pulls. It’s one of the album’s most powerful themes.

On the shimmering ‘Falling Apart,’ Caleb pulls focus on harrowing memories — “I’ve got a story you would like / It’s one where I’m forced to sleep outside / It was pretty cold I was twelve years old.” More than ever the art serves as an expression, an explanation, but also a means of understanding. “It’s me trying to pick apart the little threads — that was beautiful, but that was really fucked up,” he explains. “I suppose I’m trying to balance it all and reconcile the till of childhood.”

Those themes are present on ‘I Can’t Afford to Lose You,’ with its raw, impassioned chorus and echoed on the heartbreaking standout ‘How to Kill Houseplants,’ whose lineage traces back to the power-pop balladry of 80s Aussie bands Icehouse and INXS. Curbing the reflexive impulses to pull away, can be tough, yet he never shies away from confronting his own foibles and fuck-ups. “I feel awful and I want to save this thing and I don’t know how to do it,” he admits, adding wryly of the houseplant-relationship metaphor, “I should know how to do this by now, but I don’t: I’ve killed 35 creeping ivies.”

Elsewhere, piano ballad ‘ILY the Most’ is destined for arenas twinkling with lighters held high, and the breezy ‘Estimated Delivery’ tells the tale of yearning and long distance love, accompanied by Ashton’s waterfall guitar lines. The beat, meanwhile, started off as a sample which the band recreated with three drum machines. “There’s these robot arms that have a little trigger that pops out of a ball that you control with MIDI on either side of a hi-hat which is playing perfect sixteenths” explains Caleb. “And then Kieran’s there manually choking and releasing the hat to give it this human imperfection, but it’s perfectly in time. It sounds like a sampled breakbeat, but we built it brick-by-brick.”

With its skippy drums and arpeggiated synths, the sprightly album opener ‘Through My Teeth’ belies the time Caleb experienced when cutting ties with the strictures of the church, heading to college at 18, and getting “unruly and blackout”. Ironically it was in the church environment where he learned to play guitar, but music outside of worship was verboten, and for a period he left that dream behind — instead partying to excess to outrun his demons and flunking his engineering course, while his relationships buckled. This was followed by a breakdown and several subsequent years spent dealing with the fallout. Not a savior, perhaps, but Spacey Jane certainly became his purpose and his solace.

“I personally credit the band, but particularly Ashton and Kieran, because Peppa joined later, for showing extreme grace and love and forgiving me over and over again,” he explains. Together the band share an unbreakable bond that makes Spacey Jane tick: Peppa with her fizzing energy and dreamy harmonies stands as a balancing, steadying force; Kieran, the band’s rhythmic core and co-manager, patient, protective, savvy; and Ashton, a high-kicking, louchely exuberant stage presence whose sharp technical chops never hamper his unconventional approach to songwriting.

As a phrase, “if that makes sense,” is often used as a query without a question mark, a request for reassurance that can inadvertently signal a lack of confidence in what’s being expressed. And yet, Spacey Jane have never sounded bigger, brighter, or more self-assured. This comes not through swaggering bombast, but rather in the way they’ve embraced pop hooks, and the way life’s clamor of contradictions and nuances — the love, the heartbreak, the frustration, the disappointment, and the lacerating self-doubt — are tackled with a clear-eyed directness and empathy too. And it hits. Because we’re all trying to figure shit out and become the people we want to be.

“In one sense the art is just something I want to do, and in another sense, it’s the whole backbone of this amazing life,” explains Caleb. “It’s a complicated thing to figure out, but I’m so grateful for everything that went into making this record, and what it made us. For me at least, this process broke me down — it was like stepping off the cliff and not knowing if you’re going to be caught, but it also made me way more sure of who I am and the kind of artist I want to be. I love this project and I want to play it for people, and I love my bandmates and this thing we’ve built together. We stepped off the cliff everyday and loved it, and we have never been happier with our work than we are now. So it is with great uncertainty and immense pride that we deliver this album.”

Lyrics

Through My Teeth

All my love going to count it up

Is it ever what you think it is

I’ve been lying through my teeth again (through my teeth again)

It’s how I made it past my seventeenth

It is

Throwing up on the balcony

Who’ll drive you home your friends have gone

Breaking off little parts of me

You’re crying like you’ve lost me wholly

Tell my mum that I mean none of it (not a single bit)

I know by now she’s probably sick of me (yeah I’m sick of it)

I’ve been lying through my teeth again (through my teeth again)

It’s how I made it past my seventeenth

It is it is

Throwing up on the balcony

Who’ll drive you home your friends have gone

Breaking off little parts of me

You’re crying like you’ve lost me wholly

Is it enough to be lonely

How can I pay for this honey

Is it enough to be lonely

But I’m old enough I’ll go out slowly

Ooooo

Come pick me up

It’s permanent now

It’s all coming out

Come pick me up

It’s permanent now

It’s up and it’s down

Throwing up on the balcony

Who’ll drive you home your friends have gone

Breaking off little parts of me

You’re crying like you’ve lost me wholly

Is it enough to be lonely

How can I pay for this honey

Is it enough to be lonely

But I’m old enough I’ll go out slowly

Whateverrrr

The story so far is that it’s fucked up now

Believe it or not I would have stuck around

And the worst is still and the worst is now

Wake up in the dark I don’t wanna do this tonight

September you watched me come undone as you said

Remember the backyard sprinklers getting me wet

I always surrendered 18 where was my head

Whatever I’ll think of you forever

I’m a mess talking to a stranger and

She’s getting dressed doesn’t even know my name

And the worst is still and the worst is now

Wake up in the dark I don’t wanna do this tonight

September you watched me come undone as you said

Remember the backyard sprinklers getting me wet

I always surrendered 18 where was my head

Whatever I’ll think of you forever

Remember 18 you can’t talk to me like that anymore

Calling me crazy saying fuck you before slamming the door

I always surrendered 18 where was my head

Whatever I’ll think of you forever

September you watched me come undone as you said

Remember the backyard sprinklers getting me wet

I always surrendered 18 where was my head

Whatever I’ll think of you forever

All the Noise

Get me a girl from the middle of nowhere

I’ll show you who made me

And show me a man that you can’t control

And I’ll get you their baby

Like ah

Well it’s all just fuckin noise

Ah well it’s all just

Did you want half of me would that have been better

Would you have got way more sleep in colder weather

And even though I can’t see why you couldn’t leave it

I don’t know differently so I’m bound to repeat it

This is the way that you gave to me

A getaway car with keys in it down the street

And a bucket of nothing a trap for my feet

A promise that I would hurt everybody that I ever meet

Like ah

Well it’s all just fuckin noise

Ah well it’s all just

Did you want half of me would that have been better

Would you have got way more sleep in colder weather

And even though I can’t see why you couldn’t leave it

I don’t know differently so I’m bound to repeat it

I’m not feeling straight anymore

Years of fuckups rolling in and knocking at my door

I can’t take the blame anymore

Yes it’s all my fault and I have years of keeping score

I found the boy from the middle of nowhere

Showed him what they made me

And he opened his mouth for a chance to tell me

Jesus killed my baby

And that was the way that they gave to me

A getaway car with its brakes cut down the street

And a head full of nothing a dream without sleep

A promise that I would hurt everybody that I ever meet

Impossible to Say

I’d give up whatever to change

That’s how I feel now anyway

I was a kid I’m working on it

Said it’s not what I meant but it probably is

And I’d give up whatever to change

For you

And it’s you

Tell me all the things you find impossible to say

And it’s you oh

I’d give up whatever to take back

Half of what I said anyway

I was a kid I’m working on it

If it isn’t my fault then whose is it

And I’d give up whatever to change

For you

And it’s you

Tell me all the things you find impossible to say

And it’s you oh

Shaved his head because it’s easier

He’s working on the mines I hear

She left everything she knew for me

And went north for an argument

And it was for you

And it’s you

When I tell you all I ever really wanted was the end

Well it’s true

How to Kill Houseplants

Call it what you want call it what you like

Just be honest before switching off the lights

What a pretty fight please put down the knife

We can call it and I can leave tonight

But you said

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained and it’s starting to show

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained and it’s starting to snow

Rereading our messages I’m sorry I was cold

Pull myself away from you ‘cause that’s just what I know

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained I don’t want you to go

Put it on ice so I can sleep tonight

Know I need you right

If that means anything to you

I just called to say

Throwing this away would be such a waste

I’m on my way

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained and it’s starting to show

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained and it’s starting to snow

Rereading our messages I’m sorry I was cold

Pull myself away from you ‘cause that’s just what I know

Water me darling love is a garden

It hasn’t rained I don’t want you to go

Rereading our messages over again

Pull myself away from you over again

Picking through the pieces of you I have left

Crying on the corner of somebody’s bed

Call my dad and tell him it’s not going well

Momma do you love me I’m going to hell

Eating at the memory of something I said

Why’d you take it that way it’s not what I meant

I Can’t Afford to Lose You

Day breaks another nightmare calling out your name

Pull your hair back brush it from your face

Scream whatever you have left to say

I made this bed in it I will lay

It might work out for the best I guess

But you don’t care

I can’t afford to lose you and I’m acting like I can

In the slightest moment holding someone else’s hand

It’s in the way you throw your hands up

Forget my name and things that I’ve done

So this is it

A bunch of shit to say and things to fix

Of everything you hate and wouldn’t miss

It takes time it’s a work around of terrible designs

And things that you can’t stand behind

It might work out for the best I guess but

I can’t afford to lose you and I’m acting like I can

Someone else is choosing holding someone else’s hand

It’s in the way you throw your hands up

I won’t escape the things that I’ve done

And I guess you were right you promised me nothing

That makes it my fault that it’s done

Oh and it picks me apart it folds me without warning

And it’s over and I can’t afford it

I can’t afford to lose you and I’m acting like I can

Someone else is choosing holding someone else’s hand

It’s in the way you throw your hands up

I won’t escape the things that I’ve done

I can’t afford to lose you

So Much Taller

Keep it all the same keep it over

Underneath your head on my shoulder

Time and time alone

Spend the morning on the floor and I hate it (and I hate it)

And it’s chasing me home through the neighbourhood

Like the big black dog when you were in school

You will never be enough you will be never loved

And the fact that you tried is embarrassing enough and then

You get up so slowly just to cut me down

I’m not coming around again it’s over in my head

Always so much taller when I’m on the ground

I’m not coming around again oh again

Everything’s the same but I’m older

No one’s ever taught to be lonely

Time it’s time I know

I should call you but I won’t I won’t

And it’s chasing me home through the neighbourhood

Like the big black dog when you were in school

You will never be enough you will be never loved

And the fact that you tried is embarrassing enough and then

You get up so slowly just to cut me down

I’m not coming around again it’s over in my head

Always so much taller when I’m on the ground

I’m not coming around again oh again

And it’s chasing me home through the neighbourhood

Like the big black dog when you were in school

You will never be enough you will be never loved

And the fact that you tried is embarrassing enough and then

You get up so slowly just to cut me down

I’m not coming around again it’s over in my head

Always so much taller when I’m on the ground

I’m not coming around again it’s over in my head

The More That it Hurts

It’s coming up to meet me it’s giving me pause

And the less I know about it the more that I’m sure

Said you really have to see it

The way that I fall

You’ll be laughing through the summer and you’ll cry when it’s cold

Oh wake up honey yeah give me the news

Is it as bad as what I thought it was tell me the truth

And it’s coming up to meet me it’s sharing its thoughts

And the less I know about it the more that it hurts

The more that it hurts

Sorry that it went like this like this

I know enough about it to say the hard bit first

I’m sorry that you hate my friends my friends

I know ‘em well enough to know that this is gonna end

It’s coming up to meet me it’s giving me pause

And the less I know about it the more that I’m sure

Said you really have to see it

The way that I fall

You’ll be laughing through the summer and you’ll cry when it’s cold

Oh wake up honey yeah give me the news

Is it as bad as what I thought it was tell me the truth

And it’s coming up to meet me it’s sharing its thoughts

And the less I know about it the more that it hurts

The more that it hurts

Come on give him the space

He’s licking his wounds at his brother’s place

It could be the same

But you’ll never know if you never start again

It’s coming up to meet me it’s giving me pause

And the less I know about it the more that I’m sure

Said you really have to see it

The way that I fall

You’ll be laughing through the summer and you’ll cry when it’s cold

Oh wake up honey yeah give me the news

Is it as bad as what I thought it was tell me the truth

And it’s coming up to meet me it’s sharing its thoughts

And the less I know about it the more that it hurts

The more that it hurts

Estimated Delivery

Hang another piece of shitty art

Something to look at with a happy heart

Add another couple to my cart

Estimated delivery a couple months

But I’m getting used to waiting for a long time

I guess that’s how it goes I guess that’s how it goes

It’s a 14 hour flight and there’s no wifi

Honey I’m coming home honey I’m coming

I see you everywhere that I go

You’re in my head you’re wearing my clothes

Watching the butter melt on our toast

And if we burn I hope we burn slow

Can we stop it did we ever start

I wouldn’t mind it if we fell apart

All the other couples in their cars

Screaming at one another all at once

But I’m getting used to waiting for a long time

I guess that’s how it goes I guess that’s how it goes

It’s a 14 hour flight and there’s no wifi

Honey I’m coming home honey I’m coming

I see you everywhere that I go

You’re in my head you’re wearing my clothes

Watching the butter melt on our toast

And if we burn I hope we burn slow

But I’m getting used to waiting for a long time

I see you everywhere that I go

You’re in my head you’re wearing my clothes

Watching the butter melt on our toast

And if we burn I hope we burn slow

I see you everywhere that I go

You’re in my bed but you’re never close

Don’t act like I’m not something you chose

And if we burn I hope it’s just toast

Falling Apart

Someone said don’t hold your breath

Just save a spot for what comes next

It’s hard enough to be alone

And I’m addicted to my phone

You stole the safety of my home

Right from underneath my nose

It’s hard enough to pitch and roll

When no one knows I’m on the boat

She said darling what did I say

You’re falling apart

Like you’ve never been loved before

It’s a common flaw

And I don’t wanna hang up

If this is the last goodbye

‘Cause you’re not sleeping and I’m not tired

How did so much change in one night

I’ve got a story you would like

It’s one where I’m forced to sleep outside

It was pretty cold I was twelve years old

Or something like that

And on the next morning I was pretty tired

The neighbours who saw me all went inside

What could they have done for the favourite son

It was my fight

She said darling what did I say

You’re falling apart

Like you’ve never been loved before

It’s a common flaw

And I don’t wanna hang up

If this is the last goodbye

‘Cause you’re not sleeping and I’m not tired

How did so much change in one night

I keep on calling and calling and calling and calling

And nobody answers

And I’m falling and falling and falling and falling

And nobody catches

She said darling what did I say

You’re falling apart

Like you’ve never been loved before

It’s a common flaw

And I don’t wanna hang up

If this is a last goodbye

‘Cause you’re not sleeping and I’m not tired

How did so much change in one night

Ily the Most

Oh when are you coming home

I’m starting to fall asleep

I need something I can hold

I can’t stand on my own two feet

Stuck together worse or better

More than anyone I know

Cold in the summer warm in the winter

You’re still buried in my coat

I love you the most

You’re the only one who’s ever kept me afloat

If you ever left I couldn’t bury your ghost

I want you to know

I love you the most

Oh I’m tired of the phone

I can’t say what I’m feeling now

If you could see me it would show

I’m not sleeping bleeding out

Stuck together worse or better

More than anyone I know

Cold in the summer warm in the winter

You’re still buried in my coat

Your name in my throat

You’re the only one who’s ever kept me afloat

If you ever left I couldn’t bury your ghost

You’re the only one who’s ever kept me afloat

If you ever left I couldn’t bury your ghost

I want you to know

I love you the most

August

Could this be a bad time to tell you I’m leaving

Did I make summer come early for no fuckin reason

Could this be a bad time to go through the motions

Is it like heavy rain or just a drop in the ocean

As soon as I hit Los Angeles it was 43

Dad I hope that you’re listening

Unpacked my shit and cried a bit

I controlled what I could but this is it

We’ll be lucky if we make it to August

Or maybe to the start of fall if we force it

Could this be a bad time to tell you I’m leaving

Did I do something I can’t change based on a feeling

Could this be a bad time to be moving the target

In a way honey we ended before we got started

As soon as I hit Los Angeles it was 43

Dad I hope that you’re listening

Unpacked my shit and cried a bit

I controlled what I could but this is it

We’ll be lucky if we make it to August

Or maybe to the start of fall if we force it

Honey get out of the car your plane’s boarding

I’ll break it to you when you land and I’m sorry

And I’ll always remember

July to whatever

The borders and passes

The desert red centre

It’s all we had and that’s not much

As soon as I hit Los Angeles it was 43

Dad I hope that you’re listening

Unpacked my shit and cried a bit

I controlled what I could but this is it

We’ll be lucky if we make it to August

Or maybe to the start of fall if we force it

Honey get out of the car your plane’s boarding

I’ll break it to you when you land and I’m sorry

As soon as I

Could let go

I hung on

If that makes sense
