 This discreet little disc released in 1979 represents the LP debut of Nick Cave.

 A few months later the band would change their name to Birthday Party, and from there it would be a whole different story.

The Boys Next Door's 1979 debut album 'Door, Door' offers an energetic but somewhat unrefined pop-punk sound. While it lacks the intensity of Nick Cave's later work with Birthday Party, the record shows promise with melodic and varied tracks. Analogies are drawn to The Cure's debut in style and production quality. The album is a pleasant listen but not essential in Nick Cave's discography, marking the start of a transformative musical journey. Explore The Boys Next Door's early sounds and trace Nick Cave's musical roots—listen to Door, Door and hear the beginnings of a legend!
