    "Blender" is a song by Australian pop rock band 5 Seconds of Summer. It was released on 13 July 2022 as the fourth single from their fifth studio album 5SOS5.[1]

    Background and composition[edit]

    "Blender" was written by members of the band, Jacob Torrey and Peter Thomas while production was also handled by Thomas.[3] The track runs at 162 BPM and is in the key of G-sharp major.[4] Hemmings' range in the song spans from the notes Bb3 to Eb6.[5] The song contains the theme of "emotional damage" and has been described as an anthemic pop rock track.[1][2]

    Along with the songs arrival, the group also released a retro arcade game titled, "BLENDER BRUTALITY" which is a pac-man style game where fans grab all the items and escape the blenders.[6] Additionally, the band created a page on their official website entitled, "Emotional Blender" where fans can anonymously submit messages about how they were feeling.[7]

    Critical reception[edit]

    "Blender" was met with generally positive reviews by music critics. Grace Powers of Music Daily called the track a "quick pace" song with a catchy chorus. She also stated, "Its blunt and honest songwriting mixed with punchy drums and guitar makes me even more excited to see what's in store on 5SOS5.[6] Stephen Ackroyd of Readdork called the "Blender" a "bubbly pop bop."[8]

    Music video[edit]

    A music video for "Blender" premiered on 27 July 2022 and was directed by Ryan Fleming.[9]

    Credits for "Blender" adapted from AllMusic.[10]
