Golden Wolf is the seventh studio album by Australian musician Angus Stone, and his fifth under the name Dope Lemon. It was announced on 6 February 2025 alongside its second single "Electric Green Lambo" and released on 2 May 2025 through BMG Rights Management.[1]
Within a statement released at time of announcement it read "Moving effortlessly between sun-soaked rock and shimmering nocturnal grooves, the album invites listeners to savour the journey rather than rush to the destination. Like a vast desert landscape, the album is both stark and stunning — a place where time slows, and you can lose yourself completely."[2]
At the 2025 ARIA Music Awards, the album was nominated for ARIA Award for Best Blues and Roots Album,[3]
At the AIR Awards of 2026, Angus Stone was nominated for Independent Producer of the Year for their work on this album.[4]
