You Am I (album) explained

You Am I is the ninth studio album by the Australian rock band You Am I, released on 8 October 2010.

The first single "Shuck" premiered on Triple J radio on 17 August and was also released as a downloadable single. The band departed from the major label Virgin Records after the release of their 2008 album Dilettantes; thus, You Am I became the band's first (and only) album on the independent label Other Tongues.^[1] On 17 October, the album debuted at a peak position of No. 18 on the ARIA Albums Chart. You Am I ultimately became the band's lowest charting album since their debut album in 1993, although its successor in 2015, Porridge & Hotsauce, charted at No. 20.
