Comprising members of The UV Race, Total Control and Deaf Wish, Lower Plenty are not the band you’d expect from their lineage. This, their third full-length record, is an amalgamation of recordings and captured moments from 2012 through to 2013, all pieced together by the band, stitched like a quilt to form the beautiful whole. It’s a collection, an arrangement, an exploration by the band into their own process and interaction with each other, slowly assembled to allow others an insight into their world. A beautiful record and one that couldn’t come at a better time for Lower Plenty, Life/Thrills moves beyond a retrospective into a powerful statement about the possibilities in store for this band.
