Background and release

Following the release of their debut album 5 Seconds of Summer and their live album LiveSOS in 2014, 5 Seconds of Summer took a break for the holidays. Aside from the track "Invisible", penned in August 2014 at Ocean Way recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee, the majority of Sounds Good Feels Good was written in 2015 in Los Angeles. The band flew to Los Angeles in early 2015 to start writing and recording what was to become their second album. On their headline tour beginning in early May, they began performing a new song titled "Permanent Vacation". On 12 August 2015 they announced the title and cover art for the record, with pre-orders starting on 14 August in each time zone. Each pre-order got an instant download of the new tracks "She's Kinda Hot", "Fly Away", "Jet Black Heart", "Money", and "Hey Everybody". Many songs touch on severe topics like depression, and mental health. The band stated that the album was written as a way for them to work through personal issues, and from there they worked to make it an album for their 
fans, as well.
