Artist Biography
Merging dense clouds of post-punk guitar with songs that are straightforward, angry, and brutally honest, Low Life are an Australian band who value the philosophy of punk without being tied down to its stylistic templates. Emerging from the Sydney garage rock scene alongside acts like Total Control and Royal Headache, Low Life's songs start out physical and elemental, but the music gains a weight and heft from their layers of atmospheric guitars and keyboards. The group made their debut with 2014's Dogging, cut with the band's initial three-piece lineup, and after a recording layoff, Low Life expanded to a quintet for 2019's Downer Edn, which boasted a bigger, more nuanced and multi-layered sound while still maintaining the angry, foggy quality of their earlier work. 2021's From Squats to Lots: The Agony and XTC of Low Life refined the advances of Downer Edn without diluting its sonic impact.
