BIRTHDAY PARTY - Live 81-82 2LP metal There is no album in

There is no album in the entire corpus of indie rock—not Loveless

prog as well as classic heavy rock and doom can all be heard unfolding throughout the record's five songs

and dreary vocals anchor each tune with grimy proto-punk toughness and clangy

I'm only talking about the LP's original nine tracks

BIRTHDAY PARTY - Live 81-82 2LP metal There is no album inWhat a beast of a record. Three ferocious live shows from The Birthday Party are recorded for this album, and man do they sound fantastic. From the start of the raw pulsating "Junkyard" til the apocalyptic cover of The Stooges "Funhouse", this freaking record grabs you by the head and hits you face first into a wall of noise, screaming and tortured instruments.
