The Chills


"The BBC Sessions" by The Chills features a collection of recordings the band made for the British Broadcasting Corporation. This album includes tracks that the group recorded at Maida Vale Studios between 1985 and 1988 for the John Peel and Janice Long sessions. The Chills, a band from New Zealand, under Martin Phillipps' leadership, carved an indelible mark in the post-punk, indie rock and pop world with their unique sound. The album showcases the very essence and dimension of their versatility in the music industry. "The BBC Sessions" is a testament to the band's early style and sound, presenting a more raw and vital feel than many of their studio recordings. It features the hit song "Pink Frost" along with other remarkable tracks that established the band's reputation as a significant act in the indie and alternative rock scene during the 80s. Despite the band's line-up changes over the years, The Chills' essence remains reflected in this collection of BBC recordings.
