Temperature Drop In Downtown Winterland (EP)

REVIEWS and COMMENTS


THE CHURCH: 'Temperature Drop In Downtown Winterland' (Carrere).

A suitably esoteric title for a four track EP that captures these Aussies in prime form. Two of the cuts may already be familiar to you, viz the masterly 'Unguarded Moment' and 'An Interlude'. But the brace of previously unreleased numbers here ('Sisters'/'The Golden Dawn') emphatically make this effort worth shelling out for. Both amply display the band's capacity to shock and surprise with frightening intensity. Listen to the Church—they might well be the most important band of the rest of your life!

This is the first CHURCH record I ever bought. I love the title, the song Golden Dawn and it continues to be a favorite of mine, save for Unguarded Moment (boring).

If you can find a copy, buy it.
