Underground Lovers - Losin' It


Underground Lovers was a phenomenal alternative band in mid 90's Australia. Although their mainstream debut album "Dream it Down" was a huge hit and incredibly influential on the independent Australian music scene at the time, they nevertheless didn't make the transition to becoming a successful rock band. In my opinion, probably a good thing because I think Underground Lovers have been and still are, a band with an impressive unique sound. Unafraid to incorporate new technology, their downbeat sound is a mixture of delicate, ethereal soundscapes and reflective, soulful vocals and heartfelt lyrics. Although the band played their last shows together in 2002, there remains a huge cult following to this day.
