After two acclaimed 1986 albums (Born Sandy Devotional and In The Pines), The Triffids signed with Island Records and teamed with producer Gil Norton to create Calenture—their most ambitious and accessible album. Moving away from the lo-fi style of In The Pines, it expands on the lush, majestic sound of Born Sandy Devotional, capturing the band at their creative peak with a flawless tracklist.
