The Story
Bird Noises is the debut EP from Midnight Oil, capturing the band in their raw, formative years before their mainstream breakthrough. Released in the early 1980s, the record showcases the group’s energetic post-punk sound, driving rhythms, and early hints of the political urgency that would later define their work. Gritty and unpolished, Bird Noises offers a snapshot of Midnight Oil’s beginnings and their emergence as a powerful live band. On vinyl, the EP stands as an important early document in the catalogue of one of Australia’s most influential rock groups.
Track list:
Side A
A1 No Time for Games
A2 Knife’s Edge
Side B
B1 Wedding Cake Island
B2 I’m the Cure
