THE BIRTHDAY PARTY

Australia's finest post-punk band took a bleak, gothic approach to garage rock and featured 

a young Nick Cave. The Birthday Party were one of the darkest and most challenging post-punk 

groups to emerge in the early '80s, creating bleak and noisy soundscapes that provided the 

perfect setting for vocalist Nick Cave's difficult, disturbing stories of religion, violence, & perversity.

 The Birthday Party are closer to Joy Division (only more theatrical), the Pop Group (only spookier), or Pere Ubu (only more percussive). 

Though present on most of the tracks, the moody piano that would dominate much of Cave's solo work is never really 

prominent here. Instead it's the squiggles of Rowland Howard's guitar dodging the blows of the furious rhythm section that 

distinguishes the Birthday Party. Oppressive and unrelenting, Prayers on Fire is highly recommended for those 

aspiring to advanced states of dementia...(AllMusic)
