'''''Persia''''' is an album by [[The Church (band)|The Church]], relased in August 1984. The follow-up to February 1984's ''[[Remote Luxury (ep)|Remote Luxury]]'', the ''Persia'' [[Extended play|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 [[Marty Willson-Piper|Willson-Piper]], "Volumes," as well as a band composition, "Shadow Cabinet," long a favorite among fans.
