Lobes is the eighth studio album by American indie rock band We Are Scientists. It was released on January 20, 2023, by 100% Records.[11]

Talking about the album, Keith Murray confirmed in an interview with Recordspin that "the more rock ‘n’ roll songs ended up on Huffy and the handful of synth-heavy dance songs that we had, ended up being the basis of Lobes".[12]
