This is a promo only release from Canada. Where you can get it is a difficult question - check with record stores in Canada that specialize in rare stuff (I know nothing of stores up there, though), or keep your fingers crossed when at record conventions! Of course, you should also keep an eye out on the Net. INXS stuff for sale is always surfacing in one place or another. neil From: NKoth@aol.com Date: Mon, 1 Apr 1996 12:23:53 -0500 To: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: 120 minutes Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: NKoth@aol.com In a message dated 96-04-01 00:27:17 EST, chenm@ix.netcom.com (Michael Chen) writes: >Finally saw some quality programming on MTV today.

And they're all fairly commercial too. Nope - INXS was not included at all in the program... I found that a tad bit strange, though, because INXS has ALWAYS been played on shows like Alternative Nation, Post Modern MTV (remember that one?), etc. I thought the program was ok - but the one major problem I had with it was that it focused too much on 93, 94, and 95. Too many Green Day, Alanis, etc. mentions for me... and not enough talk of bands that used to be HUGE on 120 like Echo, DM, New Order, Cure, Smiths, XTC, Stone Roses, Mission, JAMC, Ministry, Sugarcubes, etc etc. All they did was flash their names for 1/2 a second at the beginning... Oh well - I thought the video portion was pretty balanced, though. neil Date: Mon, 1 Apr 1996 12:53:20 -0500 (EST) From: Neil Kothari X-Sender: nak6@namaste.cc.columbia.edu To: INXS List Subject: nak6 expiring Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Neil Kothari Hey, This account, nak6, is set to expire in a few days.

Ever since "All For One," though, I am shuddering at the direction his career has turned toward. That new single of his... oh god... a shake of the head is all that I can do. As for liking classic rock, I do, but definitely not with a passion. I am an 80's British music junkie, loving bands from the Smiths and The Cure to DM and New Order/Joy Division. As for 90's music, I honestly didn't?/don't mind the Grunge phase, like NIN, Ministry and the other wannabe-industrial acts, and I now follow the Brit Indie scene featuring bands like Blur and Radiohead with a passion (as many of you know...) Each to his own I say... >I know a lot of the people on this list love and hate U2, though. I >personally love them. I admit - I used to love U2, going so far as to have U2 posters on my wall back in middle and high school, etc. War is still one of my favorite albums - it sounds just as relevant today as 13 years ago. October, Boy, and The Unforgettable Fire are also all masterpieces. What happened then? They forgot the passion that drove their music - their causes - replacing political messages with a passion for greed and money. I can't think of any explanation better for the Rattle and Hum period... Finally, with Achtung and Zooropa, they saw fit to rip off other people's styles that were still somewhat underground, and therefore seem so innovative and new. "The Fly"??? What was that? New? I don't think so. Industrial layering and voice distortion has been a musical style for a decade but it was considered so fresh when U2 arrived with it. Oh well... I suppose the crowning pieces of self-indulgence were Numb (I'm convinced it was an inside joke to see what would happen if they came up with an inane song and released it. People of course said, wow... how innovative, bizarre, and new) and the Passengers soundtrack (a duet with Pavarotti? Come on!!! Please!!!!) Enough self-indulgence and revelry in your fame!!! Be relevant again!!! I'm tired of it!!! Ok, U2 rant over.

Nice to see current stuff (PJ Harvey) with classics (Smiths, Pixies). Wish MTV usually had that kind of variety. I'm glad to finally see the "How soon is now?" video. Never seen that before, and never expected to. By the way, does anyone remember a show that lasted about two years called Music Scoupe? It was hosted by former 120 man Dave Kendall and played really great stuff while he was on. That's where I first heard Blur, and yes, even Please and Time got played on it. Then they revamped the show with new hosts who looked like Saved By the bell rejects and played awful rap and pop music. Sigh.

David Bowie is a godo example.. in the 80s he did sold out cheesy pop crap (Let's Dance, Never Let Me Down) that got him plenty of cash (and some nifty mtv videos, that was probably his real goal all along :}), though I'd think he had enough already.. *shrug* so he wanted/needed more :} But anyway, he then released a modern jazz album that sold something close to 5 copies and immediatly afterward, a techno-industrial-eno album that sold 3 copies and no one liked (except me, I think its the best he's done in his career, or at least close) and toured.. now I do believe I've lost my train of thought, but irregardless a band is ok to sell out once or twice to get cash to support efforts that sell nto quite so well that they really want to do.. kevin ta crow oicm3h,inxsive,kultist crowa@medicine.wustl.edu From: KatFarriss@aol.com Date: Tue, 2 Apr 1996 19:34:55 -0500 To: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: Mike's solo album Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: KatFarriss@aol.com In a message dated 96-04-02 18:53:19 EST, you write: > Can someone tell me the release date of Michael Hutchence's solo >album, please?

But [stuff omitted] I'm going to go out on a limb here and try to defend MTV for not mentioning INXS in the 120 Minutes special. I for one never really considered them to be an "alternative" band. For me, alternative consists of mainly punk, grunge, industrial, or the like. You know, loud guitars, rebellious attitudes, and loud guitars. With some loud guitars thrown in there. I always considered INXS to be more representative of "modern rock". Modern rock to me consists of more modern, sophisticated uses of musical sounds, such as synthesizers and electronic-sounding drums. U2 and Depeche Mode would also fall in this category. It is not as loud and abrasive as "alternative" rock, and has a wider appeal.

The reason I went into this business was because I loved music. I still do, and so do most of the people who work in it. You'd have to love the music to want to work in an industry where you're working tough hours, you're out many nights of the week, you deal with harrassment from co-workers, bands, managers, etc.- all for a miniscule amount of money (until you reach a very senior position). All that aside, record companies, radio stations, etc. put out what they think people will buy. If the people don't buy it, it dies off. Most radio stations these days, at least the ones concerned with revenue, are driven by audience reseach. They poll their listeners constantly to see what they like. If they don't like a song, it will probably be pulled off the air. People vote with their dollars and their mouths! It's heartbreaking to most of us when bands we love and put a lot of work into just don't make it. I could show you tons of records on which I've worked that I've worn out that never hit. Therefore, when the INXS album does comes out, buy it, request it, recommend it, do anything you can to make sure that people know it's there and will support it. That's the only way to show the companies that INXS is worth all the effort. I now open the floor for comments.

I know you didnt quite mean te words that literealyl tho.. but hmm. Ok, are the Ramones rock and roll? saying no, they're punk is silly because punk is a form of rock and roll. or the velvet undergorund, or take the kinks (which is teh fav band of Blur and our buddies in Oasis).. how could THEY not be caleld rock and roll, they've been around since the midsixties and were one of the original british invasioners... but anyway, take all of these bands that *are* rock and roll, and look how they have influenced 'alternative' music (throw Joni Mitchell back there too), and how many bands actually blatantly copy off them them, and you see that 'alternative' isnt really fitting a category.. the semi-industrial punk grunge blah blah blah dealie is perhaps a good description of how most of it sounds, true, but does modern rock describe anything? rock is too broad to mean just the 'elite' like U2, INXS, Depeche Mode, and presumebly REM.. it's a silly divisor.. especially when you listen to bands that majorly rip off (or borrow from :}) these very bands, and that don't soudn real different.. Depeche Mode has some songs that are damn close to industrial, and would be called industrial if it was done by an industrial artist (divisions are silly, see :}).. doesn't that mkae them alternative grunge rock? I dunno, its all pretty confusing, but I think it boils down to being that modern rock and alternative are preceisely the same thing, and dividing it leads to nothing but incomprehensibility :} kevin ta crow oicm3h,inxsive,kultist crowa@medicine.wustl.edu From: NKoth@aol.com Date: Wed, 3 Apr 1996 20:09:37 -0500 To: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: Mike's solo album Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: NKoth@aol.com In a message dated 96-04-03 01:47:05 EST, you write: >In regards to Mary Wood's reply to my question re: INXS album: > >Why Vancouver???

I'm VERY sad to say it but unless you're a dedicated INXS fan, most people have that impression. I have to agree with Kat on the brain pattern of the writer of that one! What was he thinking??? I like Bush just fine but they are no INXS. And they are the furthest thing from Bon Jovi I can think of.

Is it because it's import? No, this is because the price is in Australian dollars. For a recent CD in Australia you can pay $25- $30. And for a not-so-recent CD about $15 - $20. For the American dollar value, roughly half the price. (I think?)

The US Dekadance is a completely different compilation, but I suppose everyone knows that. (US - 4 remixes from Shabooh Shoobah on 12" or cassette.

Is it because it's import? As I understand it, "All Juiced Up" is a 2 CD set. And our original writer probably can find it in K-Mart because she's in Australia. I sincerly doubt you would find it in North America at K-Mart. I found mine at HMV as an import. They only had about 1 or 2, and this is when the GH first came out (and they had about 50 of those on the shelf). JAV Date: Thu, 11 Apr 1996 08:38:47 -0700 (PDT) From: "K.

I figure since the people on the list change, maybe someone new will have the tracks that I want. I'm interested in a number of remixes, but the ones that I am most interested in that I don't have are: Wishing Well (instrumental) Taste It (Radio remix) Johnson's Airplane (don't remember the remix name) The new Original Sin remixes Underneath the Colours (Chicken mix? I'm mostly just curious :) ) I think there's also a Never Tear Us Apart or Mystify remix I also have a number of b-sides and remixes (both from the original sources and copies) that I would be willing to copy for people whether or not they have anything to copy in return. - Gary From: "John Vink" Subject: Re: hello!

It's been known that the video you can rent can't be copied because it has that "anti-copying" imprint on the tape and when you attempt to copy it, it comes out with red streaks and weird fading in and out. Does yours do that? The soundtrack LP is hard to find, but with some serious snooping around it can be found in used record stores (only on vinyl, the Japanese version can be found on a cd, though - good luck finding that!!). In OZ, there's 2 versions of the LP, one is an "X-rated" version with oh-so-nasty lyrics :-), and the sanitized edited version. UK has a vinyl LP, too. There's also a blue label promo-only version from Atlantic, no picture sleeve - from the US as well.

I don't think the video is for sale here - not that I have seen, anyway. But our video format is different to the American one. The 2 versions of the soundtrack - these are as rare as hens teeth - I have only ever seen 2 of the clean version and one of the R version. They weren't cheap, either (blew the rent money on those). Did you notice that Golf Course on the B side of Rooms was different to the one on the soundtrack (and in the movie)? What did you guys think of Frankenstein Unbound?? Pretty weird, huh?

You guys hear more goss than I do - does anyone know if Mike plans to do more movies??

Michael Hutchence was asked to be one of the main characters in "Pricilla, Queen of the Desert" but, even though he would have liked to do so, had to decline because of his charged schedule with INXS. At least that's what he said in an interview here in Toronto. Can anybody picture him in drags mouthing the words to ABBA songs?!? It's too bad, I'm sure he would have given a great performance and it would have been really funny.

The movie was crap. If you want a good version of the frankenstien story, try Mary Shelley's Frakenstein with Robert De Niro and Kenneth Branagh. It's as close to the book as you'll get. Michael was only in it for a few minutes, and it was just written really poorly. > >You guys hear more goss than I do - does anyone know if Mike plans to do >more movies??

(and it's a very worthwhile addition to an INXS collection). If you're in the US (where are you?), it's not a bad price (US$, that is). It can be found for a couple $ less, but you may not find it again. It has some remixes that can only be found on various 12" vinyl releases (or a few import cd singles that are hard to find) and Different World is strickly a B-side only release in US (vinyl only) - on Never Tear Us Apart US 7" and Listen Like Thieves OZ 7". A few of these bonus cuts aren't even available in the US. Whew. Cool cover, too. Do it!

I just saw a review in the latest Q (March 1996) today that called it Kick Special Edition or something - it said it contained Kick plus a few remixes - didn't say if they were new remixes or not. I guess that means this disc has just been released in Europe.

The only thing I could think of is a major world catastrophe, so guess I won't think of anything. Happy to know they will be working, but won't reach total happiness til' the cd is in my hot little hands. As an aside to all who responded to my "Japan made Kick cd", thanks for all the comments. Sure as s***, I have purchased the cd along with a new set of fabulous headphones. Can't wait to hear this version of Kick, which won't be til' tomorrow at work. In the meantime I'm reliving some Fixxation with the Fixx as I also bought a newly released cd from a 1982 recording by the King Biscuit Flower Hour. It has "previously unreleased material" which is almost like hearing new music from a now defunct group who may be getting back together again (I can only hope and dream that this happens). Well, later all. I'll give my opion of this Japan cd in a few days, will have to hear a gazillion times to totally infuse my brain with it. Again, thanks to all the responses. Appreciate it much!!

What's this with Michael always doing solos? I prefer to see the group as a whole, much more dynamism. Well, at least we're not deprived, better Michael sings on his own than no INXS at all!

WHAT DOES INXS NEED TO DO TO REGAIN THEIR GLORY! This is a critical time for INXS. They are at the crossroads. I feel we need to deabte the issues concerning their new album. First what type of sound would be best for them at this point. I know Andrew and Michael still have it in them to write great songs, but what type of sound. Second, what does their new label need to do to push the album. This is crucial after the marketing disaster that was FMDH. What can they do to get people to start talking about INXS again? As I said this is a turning point for the band, But they do have one thing going for them that they didn't in 1993. The 1980's backlash that was so prevalent in the early 1990's appears to have cooled. If a 1980's band was to ever make a comeback, now would be the time. LET'S TALK ABOUT IT!

My opinion: They need to embark on a HUGE world wide tour (before the album comes out). Playing smaller venues (not the huge ones that Madonna, U2 and Guns and Roses did last tours), playing Northern America, Canada, the UK, and (of course) Australia and New Zealand. A Greatest Hits tour. INXS are renown for being one of the greatest live bands ever, and this kind of tour, like the pub tour, will bring INXS to the minds of those who once were fans, but have lapsed. The New Album: Judging by FMDH, Strangest Party and Deliver Me, this is bound to be musically the best album INXS has produced. Issuing a Limited Edition CD, maybe with extra tracks, or a T-shirt or poster or something would be cool. Give me free tickets to all their NSW concerts. It wouldn't help them much, but it would make me feel great. Radio: Playing time is important, so someone suggested that we (yes, us) call up the radio stations and request the new songs. Great idea. I for one will do that. TOUR: Yes another one. A New Album tour. Once again playing similar venues as before, lots of advertising again. MERCHANDISING - very important. Caps, guys, caps. Last tour they had beanies (only westies wear beanies), I want an INXS cap. T-shirts, jackets, etc. * Maybe have an INXS competition, prizes being tickets to concerts, INXS fanzine memberships, backstage passes, meet the guys, name Mikes baby, (not copies of the new CD - true fans will have already bought it), the tour booklet, INXS merchandise, maybe to top it off - Mikes HUTCH leather jacket (first prize of course) - I don't know that he would like that too much though, so maybe an imitation. Well, thats my opinion. Agree? Disagree? Hooroo, Tracy PS Gallaghers could go drown themselves and the world would be a better place. Sue said she reckons they believe their own press, I tend to agree.

Let's hope the marketing geniouses at Mercury US have something great up their sleeves. It looks like there may not be time for an Atlanta summer Olympics tie-in, like they did for the summer Olympics in Barcelona (Not Enough Time) and Lillehammer winter Olympics (CBS here in the states used The Stairs as the music for their sign-off and 10 minutes worth of credits at the end of the broadcast). Perhaps a subsantial tie-in with a big hot movie or other event will be happening. Don't forget U2 will have a new lp out about the same time so competition will be tough. I think they will concentrate a lot more on the North American markets, which will be sorely needed. > >As I said this is a turning point for the band, But they do have one >thing going for them that they didn't in 1993.

(like that would ever happen) my point is that the fans ARE still out there--i saw well over 25,000 of them in detroit alone, back in '93 on the dirty honeymoon tour! they were having a blast regardless of the fact that they obviously only recognized the kick and x songs, plus one or two from wtwya. well, thats my two cents! i'd like to hear what the rest of ya think! :) thanks for reading! --josh Date: Mon, 22 Apr 1996 20:48:29 -0400 X-Sender: sue@netway1.mdc.net To: INXS-list@iastate.edu From: Sue Subject: Re: Hello Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Sue >i tend to think that inxs is at the point in their career where they are sort >of seasoned veterans, they have the clout and respect within the music >industry to make whatever the hell kinda album they want, without having to >predict the sales, and base the "sound" of it around those predictions. to >me, that in itself is glory! what more could any band want?

I really hope that they don't go having other past stars sit in with them. I prefer to buy INXS to listen to INXS. While that was fine for one album, I really hope they don't continue this too much on future albums. I just bought The Swing, listened and thought, my, why haven't I listened to this more often. I think alot of their better work was pre-Kick, with Kick putting them over the top and in the light, more so than LLT did. I think a pre-album release tour would wear them out, maybe even burn them out. I think tours are fine for promotional purposes after a release of a new album. It must take an awful lot out of a band to do so much traveling around. Not to mention time away from their own personal lives. >Issuing a Limited Edition CD, maybe with extra tracks, I agree with this point, it would be good to see something that covers their entire career with a couple of new songs thrown in for good measure. (not just remixes, either) I was out looking for a cd for The Fixx and saw a retrospective of The Cars, which was a double cd that covered their entire career. If I wasn't trying to catch up on my INXS, Fixx, and various others, I might have been willing to buy this. $28.99 was a bit much to plunk down tho, for a group who is not even together anymore. >Radio: Playing time is important, so someone suggested that we (yes, us) >call up the radio stations and request the new songs. Great idea. I for >one will do that. I'm not too sure about the radio thing. I know quite a few other people who are fed up with todays radio and don't listen anymore. I think music is becoming to split up into categories anymore, it's hard to find a good station to listen to that plays a decent variety. About the only way that I can keep up with my favorite groups now is to keep looking at the stores for possible new music. Well, now that the internet is getting more and more popular, I think that would be a good way for any band to promote themselves, in addition to radio, tv and whatnot. I just joined the Fixx mailing list and their management and the lead singer are both on the list and keep them up to date with what's going on. It'd be nice to see someone from INXS do the same here. Unless they already do and I don't have a clue! A definate yes on the tour, caps, t-shirts (I have 3 very, very worn out shirts) and of course the ever popular "book" things, forget what they're called. Don't care about contests. Well, that's my rather lenghty opion, take it or leave it. >>>==================>>>Roc<<<=====================<<< Vairfgvtngbef erpbirerq gur syvtug qngn erpbeqre sebz puvyq cvybg Wrffvpn'f gentvp jerpxntr.

INXS (Michael in particular) has always taken on heavy interviewing chores since day one (well, mostly because he unabashedly enjoys talking and the press just loves to hound him so much). Interviews with the band are always an enjoyable read. A future cover story in Rolling Stone US would be a milestone, even though they've always said they hate RS and would never do one since the debacle in '88 when they only wanted Michael on the cover and he (and the rest of the band) told the rag to shove it. Consequently, Terence Trent D'Arby got the cover. Personally I'd love to see a RS cover, if only so they'd have a chance to "discuss and debate" this outrageous oversight years ago.

Paula, five months pregnant, already has daughters named FIFI TRIXIBELLE, PEACHES and PIXIE. But, according to a report in London's Daily Star newspaper, 34-year old Hutchence has "banned her from picking an off-beat monicker". "He wants their first little Sheila or Bruce to have a traditional name" the newspaper said. According to the newsapaper, Hutchence and Yates have been fighting a war of words over the name for their baby. And it quotes an unidentified close friend as saying: "Paula and Michael have had words recently. "But they are still very much in love. "They will work it out.

Can't say that I'm disappointed if there is "trouble in paradise" though!! I realize that obviously they got his age wrong but you have to remember that journalists do they best they can. Newspapers especially work on very tight deadlines and don't always have time to check out every fact. And copy editors have even less time and have to assume that the writer got it right. Unfortunately, a lot of errors make into print but you need to cut them some slack occasionally. Think of all the stuff they get right. (OK, I'm getting off my journalistic soap box for now!)

Are you sure this is entirely correct? I had always read and heard that part of the problem was also with TTD, who refused to do the RS story unless he got to be on the cover. What's ironic is that TTD (who didn't care for INXS at the time at all) has become an INXS fan due to WTWYA. A coupla years ago, he wrote in RS that though he never cared for them before, WTWYA was an incredible record, and that it was interesting that when they created their best work, the public was least interested. But you are right - RS wanting only Michael on the cover was definitely part of the problem then. -neil From: NKoth@aol.com Date: Wed, 24 Apr 1996 03:40:20 -0400 To: INXS-LIST@iastate.edu Subject: Re: bud advert Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: NKoth@aol.com In a message dated 96-04-16 11:37:33 EDT, rdf103@psu.edu (Beth Krinock) writes: > Hopefully the >commercial will soon be aired in the U.S. Does Michael appear in the video >or is it just the music that is played?

As most of you already know, the band has annointed me (yes, that's holy water you see dripping down my head. ha, ha) as their new fanclub prez. I just got off the phone with Paul Craig, who is their new manager based in London. He's no stranger to the band, having been in charge of the band's publicity and promotions for the European market since the Kick days. The band has always thought very highly of his skill and knowledge and offered him the job. Here's some of what he said: The band is extrememly excited about the new album, like nothing he's seen before. It's going to be very 90's, no retro 80's sound for them. They're rehearsing in London right now and heading to Vancouver this weekend to begin recording with Bruce Fairbairn. He's keeping his fingers crossed for that release date of Sept/Oct. INXS is going to release a cd-rom. The work begins on it next week in London. No more info on it at this time. Any suggestions folks? The band is very excited about my ideas for the fanclub and are giving the green light. As some of you know, it's been a long wait for this club to get going again after being put on hold a couple months after Chris Murphy resigned. I'll be meeting Paul when he comes to LA in a few weeks and (please don't be jealous!) I'll be going to meet up with the band again when they're in Vancouver. While Bruce is producing, they haven't decided who should mix the album. Paul has asked for suggestions from all of you (I suggested Brian Eno. He said people have this idea Eno is a mixer, but he's not, so no Eno requests, please). He is serious about hearing what you all think, so e-mail me personally at in2xs@inxs.com or you can post to the list so everyone else can see your ideas and I'll compile a list for him. Also, the fanclub and band will have it's very own web site, but I'll keep you posted on the progress of that one. For those of you who have supported my efforts, again thank you.

Well, perhaps I'm going out on a ledge here, but I think Flood would make a great mixer. He has done wonders for the Smashing Pumpkins, U2, Nine Inch Nails, PJ Harvey, and Depeche Mode in the past couple of years, and I think his ear would be of major, major help to the band and Fairbairn.

I'm a relatively new INXS fan -- although I've owned my compulsory copy of Kick for years now, one of my friends made me listen to Live Baby Live last year, and I was hooked, and started exploring their sound a lot more.

An album can be "very 90's" and still be either stripped down or highly produced. Personally, I say the more work they put into producing the better. WTWYA is incredible stuff.

I found this on an online Zine: ST. BOB'S YOUR UNCLE Irish superstar singer Bob Geldof is having big time problems with his estranged wife, Paula Yates. Paula, who skanked out of the relationship March last year to set up home with INXS rock singer Michael Hutchence, flung a brick through the window of his £750,000 Chelsea mansion. They reportedly had some kind of domestic arguments over their three children. However, since Geldof has taken up with beautiful French actress Jeanne Marine, his new companion, Paula has become decidedly more erratic. Streetwise people are saying she is jealous of the younger Jeanne who is several notches above her in the age and good look charts. Others say she's skint and have been pestering Geldof for more money than he's already contributing to the upkeep of their children Pixie, Peaches, six and Fifi Trixibell, 12. However, proud Paula has refused to ask her new flame, millionaire Hutchence, for whom she's now pregnant, for any cash despite her money worries. She's reportedly behind with mortgage payments on a £500,00 pad she has bought. She narrowly avoided bankruptcy by settling debts worth thousands to the tax office. American Express issued a £23,000 writ after she failed to pay credit card bills and BT phone company cut off her line after she failed to pay a bill of just £189. In total there are 14 writs against her. Ex-punk, Irishman Geldof, on the otherhand, has been rolling in dosh. He has made (and kept) millions from his business ventures. He had two British No. 1 hits with his Boomtown Rats group and his Planet 24 television production company which makes the popular The Big Breakfast morning show, turns over £10 million a year. He achieved real status and fame however when he launched the Band Aid and Live Aid campaigns in 1984 to help famine relief in Africa and earned himself a knighthood. It remains to be seen what will become of this mess. It's bound to end in tears, the courtroom or both. Stay tuned.

What am I missing? The word grunge was used to describe the flannel-wearing, guitar heavy sound of the Seattle scene of the late 80's/early 90's - like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Soundgarden, etc etc. It is a return to basic guitar rock, minus the electronic revolution of much of 80's music. U2's latest work, and almost all of DM's career, has been based on manipulating real (ie guitar, drums, vocal) sounds through computers, or just generating sounds via computers (I'm including synthesizers here). INXS (there had to be some reference to them, right?) has been able to bridge this gap, I think. WTWYA was very reminiscent of Achtung Baby (well, actually, the other way around) and was a computer-driven rock album. FMDH removed the extremities, and attempted a more "grungey" sound.

You know, you really do have a good point. I think the difference here might mainly be our definition of 'grunge'.. for me it includes DM etc, becuase I only started listening to music in 1992.. it was on at the same time on the same stations as the back to basics grunge sound, so it kinda melded for me... I still don't see that great a difference and will readily call DM grunge, but I think that's where the heart of the matter lies > INXS (there had to be some reference to them, right?) has been able to bridge > this gap, I think.

Flood would be a great choice for the new album. Besides his obvious wealth of experience, his association with the album would give it a great deal of much needed clout. (I mean, let's face it, making a new INXS album relevant to the average music-listener of today is a difficult task.) Also, Flood is intricately linked with the "90's" sound. He did an astonishing job mixing Achtung Baby, which I believe is historically the keynote of the 90's. He would be a great asset.

Well, for starters, they aren't, and have no plans for it either as far as I know. Actually, I finally got to see the notorious Paula episode where all she does is drool over Michael while I was visiting Mary Woods (thanks again Mary!), and all I can say is "ugh." She really is a bizarre woman, and deserves whatever people dish out about her on-line. That said, I do feel it is a shame for this child. I don't think anyone believes these two will stay together until the little one is into its teen years (let alone toilet training!).

Shame on you. Actually, no way, I think Joshua Tree is one of U2's less interesting album (some might call it BORING :}).. if I had to say I wanted them to do an album like another band (which I'd rather not, but hey :}), I'd say Heroes by Bowie :} But speaking more modern and like actually possible, Achtung Baby.. kevin ta crow oicm3h,inxsive,kultist crowa@medicine.wustl.edu Date: Mon, 29 Apr 1996 07:49:18 -0500 (CDT) From: Crow To: NKoth@aol.com Cc: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: Michael & Paula Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Crow > Well, for starters, they aren't, and have no plans for it either as far as I > know.

AND later in the show they played something new! It looks like they found a perfect KICK/X/WTWYA/FMDH mixture. It sounded really good.

Uniqueness. I can handle an album that would be reminiscent of all the above mentioned albums. I was starting to get a tad worried what with all this recent talk of the group trying to obtain a `90s sound as opposed to the `80s sound. I would prefer that they try to get an INXS sound with the usual experimentation that they have been known for. There's hope after all. >>>==================>>>Roc<<<=====================<<< Date: Mon, 29 Apr 1996 21:03:03 -0400 (EDT) From: lpreston@TrentU.ca Subject: Re: CM departure To: Sue Cc: INXS-list@iastate.edu Forgive me for being out of the loop for a while, I am no longer at school and don't have much internet access so...What I would like to commment on is the "remixers" issue. Although I am not sure what they are, I do believe that they somewhat have to look and work with music that has been produced contemptuously. Like an editor of a magazine or novel. Although we would like to give all of the credit to those infamous six hot men...a lot more goes into producing an album and as for all of the chat as to who we want producing it...well, I have a lot of faith in who they chose because like the song says..."faith in each other"!

Whatever. I'm pretty sure I'll buy the new album no matter who does the mixing.

Although Hugh is an excellent mixer and engineer and producer his style (take a look at who he has worked with) probably in not the direction that the band is going in.
