Bodyjar chronology

Is It Alive is a live album by punk rock band Bodyjar. The album was recorded from a live performance at the Annandale Hotel in Sydney while the band were on their "Call To Arms tour", named after their third song on their self-titled album from 2005 (Bodyjar).[1]

The live show used for this album was originally recorded unbeknownst to the band as lead singer Cameron Baines describes, "We've always wanted to do a live album and by chance someone recorded the band in Sydney with out us even realizing."[2]

The album cover for Is It Alive contains a water-pipe (or "bong"), alluding to the fact that the members of Bodyjar are recreational users of cannabis.
