Im not sure if many of you will like this, but i appreciate it so im posting it regardless. The Birthday party was one of the darker more dramatic and raw post punk bands to come out of the 80's. Nick Cave managed to paint disturbing hellish pictures with the lyrics he spit out for Birthday party, and honestly the first time i heard them i didnt get it, i thought it was a bunch of unguided noise paired with annoying gasps and shrieks. But somehow it grew on me, and now i just see Cave's dark passion in all the chaos. Let me know if you appreciate them as well. My favorite songs are Sonny's Burning, as well as Release the Bats.
Heres a sample:
Sonnys Burning - Birthday Party
