THE PERFECT GARDEN - End of the Perfect Sunshine [1990 - Released 2025]

Описание: The Perfect Garden formed in the perfect storm of a vibrant Dunedin NZ music scene, still shaking from the explosion of the jangly Dunedin sound of bands like the Chills, Stones, Verlaines, Sneaky Feelings The Orange, Double Happys and StraitJacket Fits. The Perfect Garden differed in their passion for the UK indie pop scene of The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Razorcuts, Primal Scream, The Primitives, The Shop Assistants, Sarah Records and C86 scene.
Active from 1988 - 1990 the band played locally and took multiple trips up to the Garden City of Christchurch where they establish connections with indie Rock band Dolphin and Failsafe Records who were doing similar indie sounds.
They recorded 4 songs at Dolphin's purpose built mobile studio onto 16 track 1 inch tape, engineered by Dolphin Front Man Kevin Stokes, and releasing the results on a very limited edition cassette. The band soon disbanded as members took off for overseas destinations independently.
Failsafe Records chief Rob Mayes on a spare weekend remixed the tracks and the resulting mixes were later remastered to form the "A Place Not Far From Here" ep featuring this song, Amelia, Into The Ground, and Swirl.
The ep is released on the band's bandcamp, in limited edition deluxe CD, and now on 12 inch vinyl in collaboration with mpls Ltd.
