Much-loved Australian power-pop quartet Custard return with their first album in 16 Years, Come Back, All Is Forgiven, to be released on November 6 via ABC Music.

Featuring the classic lineup of frontman David McCormack, drummer Glenn Thompson, bass player Paul Medew and guitarist Matthew Strong, the album was recorded over a weekend in Thompson’s studio and features 11 new songs – their first new material since 1999’s Loverama.

“It sounds just like Custard,’’ Thompson reports. “Put the four of us together and that’s the sound you get, it could be an album we put out in 2001.’’

Having formed in Brisbane in 1990, Custard released 5 albums that decade, (Buttercup/Bedford, Wahooti Fandango, Wisenheimer, We Have the Technology and Loverama). The band developed a cult following, playing countless shows around the country and touring overseas, as well as producing a parade of memorable singles and videos before disbanding in 1999.

The members have all remained active in the intervening, playing in groups including The Go-Betweens, The Titanics, The Polaroids, The Lost Gospel, The Purple Hearts and Beachfield.
