The 1985 Listening Post - The Perfect Disaster - The Perfect Disaster

The Perfect Disaster - The Perfect Disaster


#241/892
June 1985
The Perfect Disaster
The Perfect Disaster
Genre: Alternative
4 out of 5

Highlights:
Dawn in the Dark Woods

We only have half the album here (It seems to be Side One) and, if the rest is as good, it would warrant a higher rating. As it is, this is excellent stuff. The few reviews I find liken them to latter day Velvet Underground. I can hear that. If you swirl a bit of britpop into that this is what you come up with. I think they are actually just as interesting but it’s not an homage or an aping. More like children of a style that tried to build on it.
