“Pressure” is an instant new anthem amidst the RÜFÜS discography, alluding to the maturation of the band heard on the upcoming full-length. Indulging in the immersive nature of Inhale / Exhale, “Pressure” is a standout with its complex synthwork and gripping lyricism. Surrounded by expansive melodies and sultry rhythms, Tyrone Lindqvist swirls a powerful tale of perseverance and defiance as he sings, “You’ll never break me down, cause I can take the pressure”.
“Pressure” joins Inhale / Exhale’s earlier singles “Music is Better,” “Lately,” and “Break My Love,” the latter of which is featured on the EA SPORTS FC™ 25 official soundtrack.
Out October 11, Inhale / Exhale will mark a new creative groove for the band, an era that is defined by enjoying the process and creating from the now while binding organic and electronic. The album encompasses the themes that have endeared fans for over a decade – romance, heartbreak, euphoria, despair – through a medley of sprawling, mature soundscapes.
In the three years since Surrender was released, RÜFÜS DU SOL won a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Recording in 2022, were twice-nominated the following year for Best Dance/Electronic Album and earned their fifth ARIA award in Australia. The band circled the globe appearing at festivals across Europe and South America, and brought Surrender to the stages of iconic North American venues like New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl. The band also launched their boutique Sundream Festival, which held its second edition in San José del Cabo in 2023, and was part of the debut of the new Quasar Stage at Coachella in 2024. Inhale / Exhale will serve as the follow-up to the group’s 2021 album Surrender, which featured the Grammy-winning lead single “Alive”.
“Pressure” arrives ahead of RÜFÜS DU SOL’s standalone live show this year, headlining Portola Festival in San Francisco on September 28. RÜFÜS DU SOL will return to festival stages next year as the only electronic headliner on all three South American editions of Lollapalooza 2025.
