Love In Bright Landscapes is an anthology of The Triffids' songs from their album, EP and single releases in the period 1983 - 1985, during which time the group were resident in Perth, Sydney and London. Three additional songs from the same sources were also included on the later CD release of the album.[1]

All the songs were written by David McComb[2] (with the exception of "Raining Pleasure which was co-written by James Paterson[2], and "You Don't Miss Your Water" which was written by William Bell[2]). All songs were arranged and produced by The Triffids.

The album was first released in 1986 by White Hot Records, a subsidiary of Mushroom Records.

Track 4, "Hell Of A Summer" is misspelt on the vinyl as "Hello Of A Summer".[1]
