Every Album Ever w/ Mike Mansour & Alex Volz
Music:Music Commentary
This week we are talking about the violent, psychotic, and absolutely astounding Birthday Party. Many of you are familiar with Nick Cave, who has a lengthy and fantastic musical (and film and writing) career. You also might not be familiar that he was once the wildest frontman for one of the most ravenous bands in rock history. The Birthday Party, from Melbourne, Australia (later relocated to London) have an unusual footprint in alternative music and it. Is. Crazy.
Closing track: “Big Jesus Trash Can” from Junkyard (1982)
