Plebs - Boring Yuppie Lifestyle


(Photo by Dani Dani — at Bakehouse Studios)

  Plebs (https://www.facebook.com/plebsmelbourne/) are a garage punk 4 piece from Melbourne featuring Sam Jamsek (vocals/guitar), Sam Walsh (guitar/synth), Will Stanforth (bass) and James Roberts (drums). They write songs that reflect their lives "half of which are therefore about working 9 to 5 at a bank and the other half are about getting yelled at by crackheads on the street." Included in the list of artists they like are Just Some Punk Songs featured bands such as Ausmuteants, Erik Nervous, Vintage Crop, Civic & The Coneheads.



  They've been releasing music since 2014 and their latest ep came out a couple of weeks ago, it features 5 tracks about having a job. It's titled Work and it's available on vinyl and digital here :

  My favourite song on the ep is an upbeat, synth heavy track that originally came out in Feb on a split 7" with fellow Melbourne punks Testa Di Cazzo. It's called Boring Yuppie Lifestyle...
