"I honestly think that Low Life sounds like U2" - Low Life bassist Cristian O'Sullivan. 'I'm in Strife; I Like Low Life' is a long-form take on Sydney punk band Low Life by Australian music writer Max Easton (Tempered, MESS+NOISE, Crawlspace). It's the final edition of the sold-out zine trilogy completed in 2017 on musicians of varying (dis)repute who subverted their worlds to their own detriment (including Randy Newman, Butthole Surfers and Country Teasers.) This edition follows Low Life from their formation in Kings Cross in the late-00's to the present day. Covering their three releases and various scandals, while outlining what has made them one of the most discussed underground Sydney bands of the past decade. 'I'm in Strife' examines the world that Low Life were forced to live in, the driving force behind the torment within their songs, and the understated politics of a band that many in their circle have grown to either love or hate. I'm in Strife is co-published through MoodWar and Meatspin Prints, with a foreword by Toto and design by Alex Dabi Zhevi.
