Life... But How to Live It? was a Norwegian band, formed in Oslo in 1988. They played their first show at UFFA, Trondheim October 22, 1988, and their final show at Kampen Verksted, Oslo, April 2, 1994.
The band was formed in summer 1988. The members all frequented Blitz, a squatted building in the middle of Oslo, where many other notable Norwegian hardcore bands such as So Much Hate and Stengte Dører had their base in the late eighties. LBHTLI toured extensively, nearly 300 concerts in fifteen countries in the five years they kept together and released a live album on Your Choice Records, produced by Tobby Holzinger. They split up in 1994.
During the live show on October 28, 1989 at Oberhaus in Alzey, Germany, they recorded their live album Your Choice Live Series Vol. 03 and released it the same year. At that show they played together with Verbal Assault. The police tried to stop the show, but the band continued playing and the audience kicked out the police. All this is documented on the live album. The band also performed the songs "Passing Through" and Smash It Up (by The Damned) which were left off this album and appear on the It's Your Choice compilation.
They have reformed to play three concerts since the breakup: once in 2002 celebrating Blitz's 20th anniversary, and twice in 2008.
Andreassen and Andreassen later went on to play with Captain Not Responsible, Drunk and Danger!Man. [1] Dyret also played Captain Not Responsible as well as Mitti Skritti and 2:20. [2] In 2010, Osvold was a founding member of Castro. In 2015, she appeared on episode 3 of Norwegian documentary series Punx.
Their song "Green" was played on G7 Welcoming Committee's fourth podcast.
