Any fans of this Australian alternative rock band? They had a few hits in the 80s and are still cranking out music today.

Recommended for fans of U2, The Alarm and The Call.

Love this band I felt the Church was one of the best of the early 'alternative' bands, great sound and some of the best songs of the early 80's including of course the classic toho mentioned.

Yeah, they have a huge legacy of albums. They were big in the 80s, but carried on all throughout the 90s and 00s and are still going strong today.

Has anyone heard their more recent stuff? It's all very good.

I love them. "The Unguarded Moment" is one of my favorite songs from the 80's. Most everyone remembers them from their Starfish album, which was brilliant. But, they also had other really good songs. I sort of discovered them from a video collection I rented once (back in the VHS days). I had two VCRs, and used to connect them to make copies of concerts and video retrospectives I would rent (back in the golden days of piracy!). I liked "Under the Milky Way", and decided to copy (not burn!) the tape. I used to play it all the time. Good stuff.
