The Birthday Party, fronted by Nick Cave alongside Mick Harvey, Rowland S. Howard, Tracy Pew, and Phill Calvert, are celebrated for their intense live performances and groundbreaking sound blending punk rock with gothic undertones. Their legacy includes critically acclaimed albums such as "Junkyard" and "Prayers on Fire," which have inspired countless artists across genres. The manufacturers?4AD/Beggars Group/Indigo?are respected names in independent music distribution known for supporting innovative acts like Cocteau Twins and Bauhaus while maintaining high production standards.
This is such a good compilation. Every single song is amazing. This is the pure essence of what was The Birthday Party. Incredible that copies are still available for such a low price as there are no other official compilations available that span their whole career. If you run into this while diggin' don't hesitate to pick it up and once you do - hold on tight!
