Low Life Shares New Single "Lust Forevermore"
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Sydney's Low Life hit us today with new single "Lust Forevermore" off their forthcoming album 'Downer Edn' which sees its release March 15 on Goner. Revolver debuted the single describing "there's an icy darkness that lingers over the entirety of "Lust Forevermore," a sadness that recalls the great work of the Cure's middle period with the driving force and tension of Joy Division. It's beautiful and anxious, pensive while damaged, but overall urgent and just plain great."

Arriving with an aura of anticipation, 'Downer Edn' (read: Edition) feels like a collective document of the band's timeline since their unforgettable debut 'Dogging' which made its nasty mark on the punk landscape in 2014. Recorded over two years and mixed in 2018 by Mikey Young (Total Control / Eddy Current Suppression Ring), 'Downer Edn' sees the core trio of Mitch Tolman, Cristian O'Sullivan and Greg Alfaro expand their ranks to a five piece and is truly the album that Low Life have been threatening to make for nearly a decade. Dizzy Daldal (Oily Boys, Orion) was brought in to reinforce the thick wall of guitars, whilst fifth member Yuta Matsumura (Oily Boys, Orion), re-joined the group later to free Tolman up as a dedicated frontman.

As far as Australian punk is concerned, 'Downer Edn' not only shatters the boundaries applied by that descriptor, it does so with the lushest attack conceivable. Like their (admitted) influence, the enigmatic Ohio legends of obscurity, V3, seldom has the f*** word been sung (repeatedly) in such a believable and poetic manner. The visceral pounding of melodies throughout the album transforms their inspirations; desperation, neuroses, trauma, survival, hooliganism, violence, hope, rejuvenation, and their hometown of Sydney's full architectural and social scope - from a realm of intangibility to the very, very tangible.
