Free Music Notes for Junkyard
Free Music Review: abrasive, not that there's anything wrong with that
Hit: 3 Stars
Anti 80's pop, nasty sounding, find out who your friends are
rock n roll. My favourite songs are Dead Joe (a classic), Pow
Pow Pow and The Dim Locator. Comparing The Birthday Party to
Midnight Oil is like comparing The Eagles to The Fugs. Not all
American Bands sound the same, ditto in Oz. (I think Midnight Oil are great by the way) This record is a bit
of a time capsule for me, having bought it on vinyl when it was
new. Different to Nick Cave's later stuff, but you don't need me
to tell you that. Junk sculpture turning back to junk junk junk
junk junk unk unk ughh ughh ohh ohh ohh Deaaadddd Joe...etc...
As some Aussies might say "It's a pearler".
Free Music Review: OVERATED STRUGGLEFEST...
Hit: 1 Stars
As with countless others, I'm a fan of Nick Cave..and I can remember hearing of his former band some years back in college. But I couldn't remember what I thought of them. Should have been
a hint since I didn't own any Birthday Party albums. Now I remember after purchasing this mess. This ain't no Poison Ivey
and it sure ain't Jeffrey Lee either. That's all I could come
up with for comparison. Listen to Radio Birdman or the Australian 'x' for down under muzack. Hell, Midnight Oil is better.
Sorry, this disc is just way overrated.
