Updated: Apr 1, 2025

Ben Lee's love for Aussie punk music can clearly be seen in his career. Never to approach anything conventionally, he has lived a life putting his most cheeky foot forwards, always, and it shows in these choices.


From raw, rebellious energy to more thoughtful and introspective lyrical moments, these albums have shaped his sound and perspective. Here are Ben Lee's forever five – the records he simply can't live without, each a snapshot of a pivotal moment in his life and musical journey.
