about
Taking inspiration from the likes of Peaches and Gilla Band, Toronto-born vocalist Sabrina Di Giulio and Northampton guitarist / producer Jonny Hillyard aim to put “the punk back into house parties”. They’re a bit like if Confidence Man were formed in a grotty London squat. Meshing electroclash, dance, electronica and hardcore, Shelf Lives’ maximalist sound distorts the party until it’s something horrifying and grotesque. Much like an abominably debauched afters, it’s pushed to extreme exhaustion, always on the brink of collapse, before luring you back in. The so-called indie sleaze revival couldn’t have come at a better time for them. However, though they celebrate the cheap and trashy, and tip a hat to the controversial, in-your-face attitude of the genre (a la The Dare), there’s more to the pair than hollowed-out hedonism.
