Description

Birthday Party~Original OZ 1st LP-Prayers on fire EX 1981 Nick Cave Post Punk 

Birthday Party

Prayers on fire

Rare Original OZ LP released in 1981 on Missing Link Records. Cat:LINK14. Comes with printed lyric inner which is in Excellent condition.

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. 


Tracks: 200 music girl/ Cry/ Capers/ Ho-ho/ Figure of fun/  King ink/ A dead song/ Yard/ Dull day/ Just you and me.


Record has some scuff marks. There are a fewlight crackles throughout. Record is in Excellent condition. Cover has ring wear, a small sticker on top right hand corner and a few tiny surface tears around edges. Cover is in VG+ condition.
