A Death In The Family call it quits

Melbourne punk stalwarts A Death In The Family have decided to call it a day, ending their eight-year tenure in the Australian music scene. The band had an accomplished and fruitful career, touring locally and internationally extensively and producing a large discography.

Read a statement from the band below:


"A DEATH IN THE FAMILY band is no longer. To cut to the chase, we've hit a cross-roads (or dead-end as it seems). Each of our lives and circumstances are vastly different than they were a few years ago and as a group we've simply decided now is a good time to move on, rather than pushing on. As a band we've done more than we ever imagined and made life long friends in many parts of the world.


This ship has sailed. ADITF 2004 - 2012. Thanks for the memories."
