Description
The Church - The Blurred Crusade
The Blurred Crusade - the second album from The Church was released in March 1982, less than a year after their debut, 'Of Skins & Heart'.
Again produced by Bob Clearmountain and boasting the singles 'Almost With You' and 'When You Were Mine' - the album has gone on to be held in particularly high esteem with fans.
In 2010, the recording was included in the '100 Greatest Australian Albums publication'.
As described by Melody Maker at the time: 'Taking unusually uncool risks and carrying them off with poise and panache, The Church sound unbelievably confident, Kilbey's fragile celebrations of the tricks and trials of the hedonistic human psyche hung in free prairies of wide open space for the listener's imagination to explore'.
The album is now proudly pressed on 180 gram blue vinyl to coincide with the 2024 tour.
