Body Maintenance – Far From Here

Body Maintenance return with their second full length ‘Far From Here. Following on from 2023’s ‘Beside You’, 8 new songs of Dark Post Punk. Hailing from Melbourne via 1980 Manchester, Body Maintenance write songs that are isolating yet inspiring, aggressive yet intricate, their music is the perfect soundtrack to the dark world that we exist in. While taking inspiration from the likes of Sisters of Mercy, The Sound and Echo and the Bunnymen, their sound is unique and unlike any other bands in the realm. Swirling beautiful guitars, soaring vocals and the most hypnotising songs. This record will keep coming back to you. With nods to The Chameleons and Second Empire Justice era Blitz, these songs are evocative of the anxiously bleak yet anthemic sounds of early 80’s Manchester, delivered in a contemporary Australian context. Essential.
