The Triffids nearing the end of the 80's and their long voyage of brilliance coming into land. A soulful set of songs, Hometown Farewell Kiss is this set's apex. Oh yes, I could listen to Graham sing country all day long!

Seeing THE TRIFFIDS live in GHENT at the time of BORN SANDY DEVOTIONAL(Flanders, BELGIUM) was one of the greatest concerts I ever witnessed. The record CALENTURE was and is equally brilliant. TREELESS PLAIN is underrated....David MCcomb's lyrics were -to quote STEVE KILBEY- worthy of DYLAN.

Yep saw them early eighties at the Pandora’s Music Box festival in Rotterdam. I can even remember it together with performances of Nick Cave, The Cult and many many others.

This amazing live performance is one of the best I’ve seen of The Triffids! It’s a great recording and shows David’s voice and all the instruments beautifully 👏👏👏👍👍🙏❤️

Thank you, sincerely, The Triffids. Some of the drunken idiots that made you play covers until 4'clock in the morning hopefully has sobered up. Brilliant band.

Love Andrew Denton's intro, at first wildly shrill, and then exaggeratedly chill as he announces with a sweep of his arm ''The Triffids''.

When the ABC used to support local comedy and music. Barely a shadow of its former self now.

the PM loves showing off his 'music lover' bonafides, but hasn't done a damn thing to help australian musicians (venues closing down), artists generally or music fans (US corporations building a ticketing monopoly). the ABC likewise - death by a thousand cuts.
