In the fertile terrain of New Zealand's 1980s post-punk scene, few figures loom as large as the Jefferies brothers. Graeme Jefferies and Peter Jefferies-the primary forces behind This Kind Of Punishment-wrote some of the best music to come out on Flying Nun, Xpressway or elsewhere. A dizzying mix of pastoral ballads and DIY experimentation, TKP's songwriting was at once classic and acutely raw. On their self-titled debut, the Jefferies brothers and Chris Matthews eschew the punk-informed modes of their contemporaries for a sound that is decidedly more deliberate \/ intimate. Rooted in a marriage between simplistic, classically-influenced piano, alternating guitar chime and sparse, subtle violin drone, This Kind Of Punishment is a contemplative, inventive collection of ideas corralled via economic 4-track recordings, minimal instrumentation and an austere performance style entirely of the Jefferies' own making. Songs like \"After The Fact,\" \"In View Of The Circumstances\" and \"Two Minutes Drowning\" boast a living quality whereby the listener can act as bystander to these moments of creation-a trait that the band would expand upon throughout the course of their brief tenure. First-time vinyl reissue since it's initial release in 1983.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter The Fact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstrumental\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon\u0026amp;#39;t Take Those\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn View Of The Circumstances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Minutes Drowning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf An Axe Is An Arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Another Funeral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome More Than Others\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAhead Of Their Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"39","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50569974546728,"sku":"85598500641","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3753883.jpg?v=1763988846","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/this-kind-of-punishm-this-kind-of-punishm-lp-5598500641","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
