2001, Library Records (Australia)
Ever been in love and then found yourself stranded in some abandoned pastoral scene with only the sound of a buzzing electrical wire above to comfort you? Well, Other People's Children (OPC) know this feeling only too well, and hence comes the debut full-length CD, 'Field Of Sadness' on Library Records. This collection gathers songs from the past three years of recorded material, including tracks from the first two OPC Library 7"s. Combining the vocals of Jason Sweeney and Louey Hart (ex Sweet William), with the added electronics, samplings and melodies from Cailan Burns and Nicole Lowrey, this album is pop-melancholia and late-night club dancing combined. With lyrics included, OPC hope you can sing along and sigh, perhaps not simultaneously. 'Field Of Sadness' lies sonically somewhere between hope and desolation, and geographically somewhere between the South Australian and Victorian borders.
