Rum Jungle / Marginalia Vinyl

THIS IS A PRE-ORDER ITEM AND WILL BE SHIPPED WITH ANY OTHER ITEMS PURCHASED ALONGSIDE IT FROM THE RELEASE DATE OF JUNE 5TH*

Rum Jungle’s sophomore album, Marginalia on black 140gm vinyl including exclusive poster, zine and sticker.

Written in the margins of touring schedules, long-haul flights, late nights, and quiet moments between cities, the record captures a band in motion, not just geographically, but creatively and personally. Where Recency Bias was about proving range, Marginalia is about refining identity; the notes scribbled beside the main text, the thoughts that don’t quite fit anywhere else, but end up meaning everything.

Across the album, Rum Jungle lean further into contrast and cohesion balancing their signature indie guitar foundations with sharper production, more intentional songwriting, and a deeper emotional through-line. There’s a sense of clarity here with hooks that hit harder, lyrics that cut closer, and arrangements that feel both more expansive and more controlled. It’s still eclectic, but this time with purpose, every left turn feels earned.

Thematically, Marginalia explores self-perception, growing pains, relationships, and the quiet tension between who you are and who you’re becoming. It’s introspective without losing momentum, capturing both the chaos of being on the road and the stillness that comes with reflecting on it.

The album reflects the band’s transition into a global act shaped by new environments, new audiences, and a broader perspective. What hasn’t changed is the core of Rum Jungle: four musicians with distinct influences, still chasing the feeling of making something they genuinely love.
