Live 81 - 82

Never released on Vinyl before and now gets released a double set housed in a Gatefold sleeve with CD version. The Birthday Party's 17 track set 'Live 1981-1982' is a vicious and incendiary assault on the nature of traditional both rock music and its various offspring. Words like 'intense' are consistently overused when describing rock bands, but the Birthday Party worked overtime to make sure that they fully deserved them. Recorded at three european concerts - in London, in Bremen, and in Athens - this album displays a rock band caught in the act of simultaneous exorcism and self-destruction.
