Search - Art of Fighting :: Runaways

In the near decade since three Melbourne high school friends formed a band inspired by such teenage heroes as the Smashing Pumpkins and Sonic Youth, ART OF FIGHTING have become one of the most respected and admired independent bands in Australia, with a growing international following, a rich and complex back catalogue and an irresistible air of dignity and grace. Moving on from their delicately controlled sophomore album 'Second Storey', Melbourne quartet Art of Fighting return with their beautifully intuitive third, 'Runaways'. Described by the band's front man, Ollie Browne, as "open and relaxed", the songs captured on Runaways are a mix of introspective 'Sycamore & Sand', playful, romantic 'Less than an Instant' insightful 'Distance as Virtue and brutally honest 'Mysteries'.
