about

Powerful, personal and political, REPAIRS are experts at playing with tension and release. Sprechgesang breaks into screaming, rhythms curtly jolt while guitars soar overhead. REPAIRS' sophomore album "Disappointing Sequel" continues on the themes of the 2020s, with songs about never-ending anxiety, crushing disappointment, the importance of connection – and why being angry matters.

"Disappointing Sequel" sees the band refine and expand their sound, while remaining true to their DIY roots. Singles from the album "Map, Territory" and "Mosaic" have been staples of the Student Radio Network, featuring in both the 95bFM and Radio Control Top Tens - with "Map, Territory" also reaching number 1 in the RadioScope Alt Airplay Chart.

"REPAIRS blend their noise rock foundation with sharp lyricism, showcasing their prowess in their craft. The driving force behind the band's sound is both loud and immediate, underscoring the punk rock essence which permeates their songwriting." Destroy//Exist

"Map, Territory is more than a song; it’s a sonic reckoning, a raw portrayal of unease that resonates with the disquietude many have weathered. With every beat, REPAIRS etch an indelible mark on the chaotic canvas of our recent history." Last Day Deaf

"Disappointing Sequel" is available as a digital download/streaming and on a strictly limited run of transparent blue vinyl.

About the band:

For more than half a decade Martin Phillips (he/him), Nicola Edwards (she/her) and James Milne (he/him) have been performing as REPAIRS, a noisy rock group based in Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa (Auckland, NZ).

Shows to date have been included support for local heroes Die! Die! Die! and Poison City faves Bench Press and Moody Beaches; opening for international legends JUNE OF 44 (2023) and Screaming Females (2019); and slots at 95bFM’s Fancy New Band (2019) and The Others Way Festival (2022).
