Body Maintenance • More

Body Maintenance return to the Tote band room for their first show of 2024, breaking a short hiatus which followed their warmly received tour of Europe and the UK last year. The Narrm/Melbourne group will be performing their tried and tested live set with the introduction of newer songs from a forthcoming LP out in later this year. Body Maintenance compounds the stark characteristics of goth with an overarching pop familiarity of new wave. Merging tension and ethereal delicacy, the latest batch of songs from Beside You explores both the bleak and dreamy aspects of 80s post punk with heavy nods to The Comsat Angels, The Chameleons and Echo & The Bunnymen. Joining BM on the night will be Melbourne's premier goth/dark-wave act Dark Water, the incredible local garage/proto-punk outfit It Thing along with Armour, a freshly formed post punk supergroup featuring members of Bloodletter, Pleasure Symbols, Nylex etc. Not to be missed!
