New Christs, The
The Burning Of Rome + Selected Works (clear)
After more than a decade away from European stages, legendary Australian rock outfit The New Christs are finally returning to tour the continent in the summer of 2025. To celebrate this long-awaited comeback, Wild Honey Records and FOLC proudly present The Burning of Rome: Selected Works, a career-spanning double vinyl compilation personally curated by frontman Rob Younger. Rob Younger, best known as the voice of Radio Birdman and a defining figure of the Australian underground, formed The New Christs in the early 1980s as an outlet for his darker, more intense musical visions. Over the years, the band has become an essential part of the global rock'n'roll landscape, blending raw garage energy with post-punk menace, sophisticated songwriting and a ferocious live presence. Despite frequent lineup changes (featuring players from The Celibate Rifles, Lime Spiders, The Barracudas, Hoodoo Gurus and more), The New Christs have maintained an unmistakable identity one defined by urgency, grit and uncompromising quality.
