Boys Life was an indie rock/emo band from Midwestern United States formed in 1993 whose records include a self-titled LP and “Departures and Landfalls.” They also put out a split EP with Christie Front Drive.

Featured singer/guitarist Brandon Butler who went on to form groups The Farewell Bend and Canyon. He now performs as a solo artist.

There was an earlier Boys Life as well, from Boston in the early 80s, or Malden, if you’re really making intra-128 distinctions. Best remembered for their 1982 12” on Seco Records.

I saw these guys open for the Promise Ring waaaaaay back when in Vancouver @ Crosstown Traffic. (it was either the Promise Ring or Kerosene 454). Anyhow, I knew nothing about Boys Life prior to the show but became an instant fan after watching their set. Their songs are timeless.

Boys I guess, I don't think any of the releases have it with an apostrophe anyway.

I am not a fan of the self-titled so much, but Departures and Landfalls deserves far more praise. Can't get enough of that album.
