The earliest incarnation of The Boys Next Door was formed in 1974 by Nick Cave, Mick Harvey and Phil Calvert while they were attending Caulfield Grammar School outside of Melbourne.

Other students – John Cocivera, Brett Purcell and Chris Coyne also joined the band for a short period of time and played under various names at parties and school functions with a mixed Pre-Punk repertoire.

After their final school year in 1975 the band decided to continue as a four-piece group with Tracey Pew on Bass, and with the addition of Rowland S. Howard on Guitar in 1978, the band had solidified the line-up that would become The Birthday Party, to which they changed their name and moved to the UK in 1980.
