Whereas the band’s debut album ‘Popular Music’ was broadly political, Life’s new album takes a more personal approach with beguilingly honest and brave lyrics that are bold in both sound and feeling, whilst also retaining the core DNA of their previous material.
“A Picture of Good Health is not a collage of work but rather a snapshot of time; our time and the time of those around us,” says vocalist Mez.
“It’s political, but in a personal way. It’s a body of work that explores and examines the band's inner-selves through a precise period; a period that has brought pain, loneliness, blood, guts, single parenthood, depression and the need for survival and love.
“It is the sense and need for belonging that is the resounding end note!”

Earlier this year, the band completed a sold out two-week European tour as main support for IDLES as well as playing one of three sold-out London shows at the Electric Ballroom and have played packed out sets at various festivals throughout the year including Glastonbury, The Great Escape and Liverpool Sound City.
Life have spent much of the past three months on the road, but things draw to a close next Friday, November 15, with the last gig on this current extensive road trawl happening here in Milton Keyes. Catch the band live at The Craufurd Arms, with an intimate bar show.
