First
Record of Choice
This record has been a favorite of mine for about as long as I’ve listened to
it. There once was a time when a lot of The Birthday Party’s catalogue was
unavailable at most record stores and to pirate online. So I had to turn to
EBay, where I bought the album on vinyl for $100. It was a small price to pay
for such an intricate album of noise, passion and insanity. When one looks at
the album cover they know they’re going to get something dark and different.
Don’t get my wrong, The Birthday Party isn’t for everyone, and if you don’t
like one song of theirs, you probably wont like the rest either. It’s a mix of
noise pollution, sadness, anger and pain among other things. The first song
kicks a fucking hole in your head and doesn’t let you go for the rest of the
album. For me the lead singer of The Birthday Party, Nick Cave was a virus.
When I first heard him I thought he wasn’t anything special. I started to
listen again, and each time I found something else in his music that attracted
me to him. If music were drugs, heroin would be anything with Nick Cave.
