Review title: Shiny spiky sonic horror
Product review: I dunno. It's really hard to impress the uninformed with the power and energy of this band. This epitomises the fervour and feeling (sometimes I think naieve when put into the context of modern writing and recording - though not a bad thing) of the post punk era, NOT Britney Spears, thats for sure. Even though the Birthday Party's last releases (Mutiny in Heaven et al) and the following album (Junkyard) are, to me, better in their fullfilment as albums, Prayers On Fire is a baptism by fire - brave, gregarious and terrifying, but nonetheless thought provoking on where music can take you. King Ink is probably the most truculent song I'd heard when I first heard it - the band probably laughed their heads off after completing it! Drop your guard, and leave your preconceptions of what music is about at the cloakroom and listen.
