Review

Rolling Stone - 3.5 Stars - Very Good
Q (p.120) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The results are poetic pop of the stirringly epic variety."
Q (p.121) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t had big songs and a big Gil Norton production that pushed McComb's poetic soul to rock's most rarefied reaches."
Magnet (p.93) - "[I]ts buffet of swirling ballads, lush orchestrations and buoyant pop was intended as a crowning achievement."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.110) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "McComb's songs -- some complex and bearing religious undertones, others, such as 'A Trick Of The Light', proving quality pop anthems -- glisten amid the theatricality..."

Title Note

Australia's Mushroom Records label presents the rockish folk of the Triffids. Their 1987 album, this includes "Kelly's Blues,"

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.

Considered by most Triffids fans to be the act's crowning achievement, 1987's CALENTURE sees the beloved but woefully underexposed Australian rock band trading in the charmingly ramshackle aesthetic of IN THE PINES for a brighter, fuller sound. A testament to the late singer-songwriter Dave McComb's ability to pen remarkably affecting and catchy tunes, CALENTURE is best embodied by "A Trick of the Light," a shimmering, synth-laden study in pop perfection.
