Modern Life Is War, the end is....


It's a big shame that Modern Life Is War have called it quits and split up. A superb recording band, and even better live band, they will be sorely missed.

There was no bullshit with their sound, they carved out their own niche from a Black Flag cover band to an ingenious hardcore band whose sound really couldn't be matched.

Their first two full-length records really couldn't be beaten, and there was nothing bad about this band whatsoever. I know this is a bit lame but I honestly think that in 20 years Modern Life is War will go down with the Suicide File et al as one of the most definitive bands of this decade, and I'm lucky to say that I've seen them when so many others missed out. - Nick
