“Growing Up Is Getting Old” is Nerdlinger’s love letter to life’s beautiful mess—the highs, the lows, and the bits that make you question your own sanity. It’s a loud, unapologetic explosion of themes, stitched together with the same fast, melodic ’90s punk DNA that’s kept them caffeinated and chaotic since day one.

This time around, the Sydney and South Coast quartet are stretching their legs—musically, emotionally, and probably in the physio’s office. GUIGO (because syllables are exhausting) is a rollercoaster of love songs, existential dread, and hypothetical wastelands. It’s got everything: heart, hooks, and just enough maturity to make you wonder if they’ve started paying taxes.

The track listing is meticulously put together, for music fans who like an album that listens like a movie [I put my version back in here]. “This isn’t where it ends,” a lyric that lands like sunrise after a bender, and closes with the midnight chant “Dear streetlights, won’t you guide the way back home,” as the credits roll and someone probably throws a shoe.
