Arrows

Forming in Brisbane, Arrows are post-rock balladeers without a filter. Unconventional “rock” instrumentation over bombastic / receding harmonies. Desperately reaching vocals which roll ceaselessly between pop & depravity. Round this out with a strong DIY ethic, dive-in.

First a self-released demo in 2006, following with a 12” split the year after, Arrows soon became a genre favorite amongst a tiny few. But it was the debut album <a href="spotify:album:67x9tXzLvyA2rCXR7Vp8lb" data-name="Modern Art &amp; Politics">Modern Art &amp; Politics</a> that would flood onto “Best of 2008” lists here &amp; across the globe, a record possessing an honesty that has garnered them an obsessed fanbase both in their Brisbane hometown and in underground circles worldwide. Almost two years on, Arrows recorded <a href="spotify:album:3EW3e6FuKrPYpkwuqSYv6t" data-name="Try and Stay Upright">Try and Stay Upright</a>, seamlessly more dynamic and emotionally gripping than its 2008 predecessor.

Just prior to the band ending in 2014, Arrows recorded a <a href="spotify:album:5qNFTQAaWc4ExZLtjn3qGt" data-name="Split">Split</a> with Empire Empire I Was A Lonely Estate.
