Our Take

Peter Murphy's "Wild Birds" is a mesmerizing journey through the evolution of one of post-punk's most enigmatic figures. From his days as the frontman of Bauhaus to his solo career, Murphy showcases his unique blend of gothic rock and experimental pop across this ten-year span.

The album kicks off with the dark and brooding "Cuts You Up," a track that perfectly encapsulates Murphy's signature sound. With its haunting vocals and moody melodies, it's a song that has stood the test of time and remains a fan favourite to this day.

As the album progresses, tracks like "Indigo Eyes" and "All Night Long" showcase Murphy's ability to seamlessly blend elements of rock, pop, and electronica. His haunting vocals soar over shimmering guitars and pulsating synths, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "Wild Birds." Tracks like "Deep Ocean Vast Sea" and "Strange Kind of Love" inject a sense of playfulness and optimism into the mix, showing a different side to Murphy's musical personality.

Overall, "Wild Birds" is a captivating journey through Peter Murphy's musical career, showcasing his versatility and creativity as an artist. Whether you're a die-hard Bauhaus fan or a newcomer to Murphy's music, this album is a must-listen for anyone looking to delve into the darker side of post-punk.
