THE BOYS NEXT DOOR "door door" vinyl 1979.
the first ever Nick Cave release...
his band were to evolve into Birthday Party and later Bad Seeds...
album has a distinct new wave/post punk sound and is made up of basically 3 minute songs...
for the most part you wouldnt even recognise it as as a Cave album until the the final song, Shivers.
Shivers is that stereotypical deep/dark/haunting/brooding piano track he was later known for.
that song stands up to anything in his back catalogue (with its theme of suicide)...
the rest of the album is excellent, loving the grimy/grungy/post punk eratic sounds contained within...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
both linked tracks are definitely worth a listen if you are at all interested in Nick Cave
one of the heavier tracks: The Nightwatchman - YouTube
and the classic "shivers"
