Plus Life was a short-lived band with a span of two years of its activity. Formed in the capital of Belgrade, the quintet banded together to release their debut EP "Modern Life Mathematics in 2006. It was rumoured that the new material was in the works, however that never came to fruition and then the band called it quits in 2007. Afterwards, a few band members went on to play in various different bands (see related bands).



Their debut EP "Modern Life Mathematics" consists of 6 tracks of unnerving dissonant and fastened post-hardcore tensions, completely reminiscent of 2nd wave of emo, especially ones from Dischord and/or Ebulition Records. Although it relies a bit too much into hardcore (shouts and all) and comes off a bit of a cliche and dated, especially in the year 2006, it is cool to hear the old-school 90's emo in their songwriting. An underrated discovery.
