about

Possessing an honesty that has garnered them obsessed fanbases both in their Brisbane hometown and in underground circles worldwide, ARROWS are post-rock balladeers without a filter. Almost two years since their debut album 'Modern Art & Politics' flooded onto “Best of 2008” lists across the globe, ARROWS have recorded their compelling heartfelt 2nd album 'Try and Stay Upright'. Seamlessly more dynamic and emotionally gripping than its 2008 predecessor – slower, shorter and certainly this young bands most powerful statement yet.

“93/100″ – Kill Your Stereo

CD – First 500 hand-numbered in matt-finish gatefold jackets with the rest on semi-gloss gatefolds.
