About this album

Rivers Of Corn is a sharp, offbeat alternative rock album from The Zimmermen, blending sardonic humour, grit and memorable hooks into a distinctly Australian indie sound. Released in 1986, it reflects the era when local guitar bands were pushing beyond straight pub rock towards more characterful, literate songwriting. The album’s restless energy, dry wit and sense of momentum give it lasting appeal, while songs such as “Don’t Go To Sydney” and “I Shall Return” underline the band’s knack for turning outsider attitude into something catchy and immediate. It remains a notable snapshot of mid-1980s alternative rock.
