Permanent Vacation is the debut studio album by Australian indie rock duo Lime Cordiale, released on 13 October 2017 through Chugg Music Entertainment.
In an interview with Aus Music Scene, lead vocalist Oliver Leimbach stated "We want people to find their own stories in this music. I hope you and your lover listen to [album track] "Can I Be Your Lover", break up and then that song makes you suffer. We're trying to get inside your head."[4]
