Background

Act III was announced with the release of the single \"Hippie Sunshine\" on 22 September 2025. The title is a reference to being their third album with Sergio Pizzorno on lead vocals.\n

The second single, \"Great Pretender\", was released on 2 April 2026, alongside the album's artwork and track listing. The album was originally set for release on 17 July, but was later delayed to 4 September with the band saying they \"had the album back on the operating table for a few final adjustments\" and \"couldn't send it out into the world without getting everything just right\". On 26 June, the same day as the delay announcement, the band released the third single, \"Superpowers\", and a video featuring Stephen Graham. On 14 August, \"Nothing Better Than This\" was released as the final single.\n
