Low Life is an Australian post-punk band hailing from Sydney, known for their raw and visceral take on the genre. They first garnered attention in the underground music scene with their 2014 debut album "Dogging," which was praised for its gritty realism and dark, unapologetic portrayal of urban life. The release became a cult hit, establishing the band’s reputation for combining coarse, lo-fi production with catchier elements of punk and new wave.

The band's evolution continued with the release of "Downer Edn" in 2019, a record that garnered critical acclaim for its refined aggression and thematic depth, grappling with feelings of discontent and alienation. Low Life's music is characterized by dense layers of guitar, wiry basslines, and driving rhythms, underscored by often bleak yet insightful lyricism. Their subsequent releases, including "The Pitts" and "Lust Forevermore," further solidified their standing as one of the more provocative and compelling acts in the post-punk revival scene. With their 2022 album, "From Squats to Lots: The Agony & XTC of Low Life," they delivered a confrontational yet introspective body of work that continues to challenge and intrigue listeners, cementing their position in the global music landscape.
