In the early 80's very few bands could match the intensity and sonic violence of Australia's The Birthday Party s. Fronted by a young and hungry Nick Cave the band delivered an intoxicating mix of rusty blues and mutant rockabilly, post punk sensibilities, noise and experimentation that exploded when played live and these absolutely essential collection of live radio recordings are a powerful proof of that. This second volume contains the last two Peel sessions the band recorded for the BBC, December 1981 and November 1982.
