Background notes
Archive material and source history
War Babies formed in the 1990s with Jake Barrett on vocals and guitar, Max Harris on bass, and Nick Evans on drums. Their self-titled debut came out in 1999, but it was the 2001 album 'Blue Tomorrow' that got them wider attention. The title track from that record became one of their better-known songs.
They had a reputation for loud, direct rock and lyrics that didn't shy away from darker themes. Tracks like 'Cry Yourself To Sleep' and 'Hang me Up' carried that same heavy, straightforward energy. The band's live shows were often rowdy, which sometimes drew criticism.
War Babies kept putting out albums through the 2000s, but they broke up in 2009 after what was described as a difficult final tour. Their music still turns up on playlists for that era of rock, usually the louder, less polished end of it.
