Dream Days at the Hotel Existence, Powderfinger's sixth album, came out through Universal in Australia on 2 June 2007, and it's the sound of the Brisbane five-piece shaking off a three-year hiatus. They regrouped late in 2006 to write it and cut it in Los Angeles early the next year with Rob Schnapf, and Bernard Fanning's voice, the guitars of Darren Middleton and Ian Haug, John Collins' bass and Jon Coghill's drums come across broad, warm and unhurried, a band sure of its footing.
"Lost and Running" led the way and went top five at home, followed by "I Don't Remember", "Nobody Sees" and "Who Really Cares (Featuring the Sound of Insanity)". Reviewers called it consistent and distinctly Australian, and it gave the band yet another number-one album. Claims that "Black Tears" might influence the Palm Island death in custody trial led them to release a shortened version of the song.
