Blustery London Based Duo SHELF LIVES Dash On New Ripper ‘ALL THE PROBLEMS’

Posted on by JL

New striking strokes

25 April 2023

Band: SHELF LIVES
Who: Hotly tipped transatlantic duo consisting of Canadian
vocalist Sabrina Di Giulio and Northampton (UK) raised guitarist
and producer Jonny Hillyard – who now both reside in London.

NME about the duo: “The extroverted electro-punk duo we need right now.”

New single: ALL THE PROBLEMS
A power-stroke about ‘the crisis of masculinity,
part of a new upcoming EP.

TUTV: Shelf Lives sound cool, they have this cool ripper and cool vid out and
they look cool. They fuzz, buzz and rush big time on All The Problems. They razzle
and dazzle with electric explosiveness when the steamed-up chorus detonates.

This rad ripper is pushed by slam-bang drum hits, charged with hectic guitar
riffage and injected with the duo’s nerve-racking vocals. If you have problems
you can crush them with Shelf Lives‘s fast and furious frenzy. Do it, baby.

Here.
Now.

Band: SHELF LIVES
Who: Raw electro-punk duo from London. They pair hardcore punk’s brief blasts of energy with electroclash’s minimal and sleazy sonics. Their music feels chaotic, tense, and wired; raising themes of societal collapse and hyper-consumerism with a warped smile.

Track: BITE
It follows their smashing debut album
Yes, Offence released last year.

TUTV: This synth-punk salvo starts with some sharp-cutting sneering
and spiting and then, one minute in, when the siren-like chorus erupts
through your tormented speakers, this maddening missile sounds like
if The Prodigy fly a starfighter with Amyl Taylor from the heated Aussies
Amyl And The Sniffers in the front seat.

You’ll experience a supersonic rush
through your veins. Wow! Double wow!

Yessss, this is really heavy stuff, people. Karma or not, no rest for the wicked.
In a normal world, this crack hammer uppercut should top the UK’s Indie Charts.
Don’t miss them, they’re electro-tastic. Hells bells!

Ay ay ay ay ay ay
Well you said you like karma
You say you like freedom
You’re better than me
So you said you are calmness
Better off stealing, rather than cheap

I will never bite what you say
Didn’t want to find out anyway
I will never bite what you say
Didn’t want to find out anyway.

Alert your neighbours
before you release the bats.

Press play.
