Career-spanning retrospective of the Australian post-modern/ alternative rock group's finest recordings since their start in 1983. 16 tracks, including 'Desperate Hours', 'Stonage Cinderella', 'Whitlam Square' and 'Godbless'. A great album covering the great era of Australian underground scene from 1980 - 1990. Ron Peno and Brett Myers are two talented writers and performers with an incredible repertiore of good, solid tracks with just enough melody tinged with edgy rock and a hint of punk to place them in the same space as The Saints, Celibate Rifles, The Church, Hoodoo Gurus and Jet. "Out of the Unknown" chronicles an impressive resume of work from this innovative Sydney band. "Out of the Unknown" is not simply a collection of all the band's singles - although the songs are mostly singles, and listed (mainly) in chronological order, the list is somewhat eclectic and indeed very satisfying. There are a few touches that are typical of Died Pretty. Perhaps the best bonus of all is the inclusion of "Everybody Moves", the haunting and soulful non album single from 1989. It's good to finally have this on CD - it was formerly available on a now deleted CD single. As a retrospective of Died Pretty's work, "Out of the Unknown" is very impressive and it's a good start to a great band.
