Songs from the Real World (Commissioned Songs)

Collection of commissioned songs from Steve Kilbey (The Church 'Under The Milky Way') and Martin Kennedy (All India Radio). "The two Australians’ approaches to music and art seem to have been made for one another. Both are serious artistes in the old school, classical sense. They work in multiple mediums, including poetry, painting, animation, and, of course, music. On a more tangible level, Kennedy’s lush, film-like, downtempo soundscapes were an ideal backdrop for Kilbey’s ageless, arch, silky croon and stream-of-consciousness lyrics. A match made if not in Heaven, then certainly in Nirvana." - John Bergstrom, Pop Matters
