"Persia" is an album by The Church, relased in August 1984. The follow-up to February 1984's "Remote Luxury", the "Persia" EP continues in a similar stylistic vein. Brighter in feel than its earlier companion EP, it is usually regarded as the stronger of the two. While "Remote Luxury" heavily bore Steve Kilbey's stamp, "Persia" features one track penned by guitarist Willson-Piper, "Volumes," as well as a band composition, "Shadow Cabinet," long a favorite among fans.
