Forced Communal Existence is a massive 23-track compilation LP from the exceptionally prolific Australian solo project Alien Nosejob (Jake Robertson). This album gathers rare and out-of-print tracks from various EPs and singles recorded between 2017 and 2022, showcasing the project's dizzying genre-hopping within the punk umbrella. The collection is a "paint stripping, mind altering" showcase of Australian DIY sound, cycling through raw Garage Punk, Hardcore, New Wave, and more, with cynical, satirical, and unapologetically Australian lyrics about societal and domestic struggles.
