DO RE MI "domestic harmony" 1985, vinyl. #6 Aust,
i dont know how to explain this album, i was going to put it up yesterday giving myself time to think about it...and all i could come up with is: The Church meets INXS??
it was the bands second album, they only had three then lead vocalist Deborah Conway was offered a solo contract, she still performs to this day and has one of the finest voices around.
i suppose the album is very 'art studenty'...if that makes sense. the single "man overboard" was banned in the UK for having words like "pubic hair on my pillow", "anal humour" and "penis envy", its a very unusual song as it has no chorus,nor does it have a catchy melody, but it still works very well.
im not going to say any more because you need to listen to the tracks links, but if you like The Church, i think you will like this.
