Description:

Steve Kilbey ‎– The Slow Crack (1987 Australian 12” vinyl LP album housed in picture jacket with inner picture sleeve in near mint condition - Red Eye Records ‎– RED 15)

The Slow Crack, surfaced in 1987 and finds Kilbey agreeably filling in the time between the Church's Heyday and Starfish albums. In general, The Slow Crack lives up to its solo nature; it's less full and energetic than the Church (Kilbey plays everything himself and serves up some acoustic numbers here and there), but no less interesting. Certainly fans of Kilbey's sometimes-cryptic lyrical imagery and his sighing, melancholic voice (and accompanying melodies) won't complain. When Kilbey more self-consciously stretches, the results are often intriguing, such as the slightly forbidding, cool "Ariel Sings." Then again, "Surrealist Woman Blues," though it avoids completely being a formal exercise thanks to its woozy chorus, doesn't really do much more than pretend it's a late-night bar somewhere. Best title of the bunch: "Favourite Pack of Lies." AllMusic Review by Ned Raggett
