It came out in Australia in 1981 under the title &#8220;Of Skins And Hearts&#8221; and was released in the U.S. a year later as simply &#8220;The Church&#8221; with slightly different songs and sequencing. This record is not that good and is not like the music they would be playing later. I only listened to side one once when I bought it and didn&#8217;t like it very much. Side two is  little better with the song &#8220;Sisters&#8221; showing a glimpse of what they would sound like in years to come. &#8220;Memories In Future Tense&#8221; has an almost Heavy Metal feel to it while &#8220;Don&#8217;t Open The Door To Strangers&#8221; is just plain bad. I became interested in this band in the early 90&#8217;s and bought about eight of their records on cassette and and six of their newer releases on CD. The tapes are gone but I still have the CD&#8217;s. I bought this used album at a very small record store in Reading in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first album from this Australian band.
