Halflives

Halflives sounds like late nights and heavy hearts. In the words of singer and producer Linda Battilani, her music is "for the broken and the misfits", the ones who feel too much, think too hard and still get back up. Born in Italy, based between her studio and the road, Linda Battilani turns frustration, heartbreak and hope into emo-pop anthems that hit like confessions and scream like revolutions. Dark alternative rock meets cinematic pop and a touch of electronic chaos - think Paramore, PVRIS, Bring Me The Horizon on the edge of a breakdown. The new EP How Much a Heart Can Take Before It Breaks moves through rage, numbness and acceptance, from the burnout anthem Eat Sleep Work Die!!! Repeat to the queer resilience of Immortals and the fragile brightness of perfectly broken. Fans of heart-on-sleeve lyrics, heavy feelings and songs that sound like survival will find in Halflives a revival of the 2000s emo sound that defined a new era of rock music. Through personal and societal hardships, Halflives' message is always that of full-circle journeys and resilience. When the world's on fire, Halflives' passionate community and live shows are always a place to scream, to connect and to remember what it feels like to be alive.
