The idea is to get the retailers, radio people, etc. excited so that they'll talk the project up to the fans. You can usually find some small store in a big city that will be able to get hold of the stuff and sell it to you.

Plus, for the longest time, our local pop station played the opening sequence to the song under all their chatter as background (you know, that really catchy drum rhythm thingy do :-) And I'm sure everyone's already heard my "They show Madonna strapping leather clad men to the ceiling, why won't they show Taste It?" argument.

I believe that the name is "Fast Love." I happen to like George Michael and that video. (sorry) I was lucky enough to see MTV play "Taste It" twice! (I knew right then and there that I was special) I also saw "Shining Star" twice on MTV. Is this just some wierd memory of that video, or was a poor foolish man squeezed to oblivion by a giant inflating condom in a bathroom? If I remember right the band is playing in a bar/club and during the song this man goes to the bathroom when his misfortune meets him, and shortly there after the garbage is thrown out, and the video is over. If any of you remember this video, please let me know if my imagination made this up.

Either way, both versions speak volumes on what has become of Mtv in the past few years. I've heard rumors that they may be setting up a second station and getting back to the way they used to be when they first started out. One could only hope this comes about. As far as Taste It goes, I'd not seen any versions 'til just recently when I got my Greatest Video whatever tape. Pretty damn good vid if you ask me. And speaking of videos, I'd just like to voice an opinion re: INXS vids, whoever puts the collections together does a damn fine job of it. I've only got two so far, but each time I watch them I come away having learned just a tad bit more about the group. Plus, after seeing the vids for the FMDH album, I've come to appreciate that particular album a bit more. Still not my fave, but I really did like the vids that were done for it. Has anyone seen the X cd that when you open it up, the group "pops out" at you, like a children's pop up book? I ran into this a week ago and bought it without realizing what exactly it was. Thought it was INXS, had the X, but nothing else other than CM Murphy's name on the back. Now I have two copies of X, but both were packaged differently. That's kind of a bummer about the album being pushed back til October, but at least it's coming out this year, I guess. Can't wait to hear it.

The highlight: for the last twenty minutes of INXS' set, a guy in the tenth row just stood there flipping the band the bird. At the end of the set, INXS singer (Michael Hutchence? -- I may be showing my ignorance here) reciprocated the gesture. The guy in the tenth row charged at the stage, and Hutchence tried to jump off the stage at the guy. Both were restrained, however, before any blows were exchanged. -Maybe the guy in the 10th row was Liam Gallagher . -Sue sue@mdc.net http://www.mdc.net/~sue From: Jewelfaris@aol.com Date: Mon, 10 Jun 1996 23:01:31 -0400 To: p0vinogr@teaching.cs.adelaide.edu.au Cc: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: INXS chat..

Geldof and Paula yates, who have three daughters, divorced last month after 10 years of marriage. "After three days of complete bloody nightmare in the High Court of Justice, Bob and Paula have with collective sighs of relief arrived amicably at a half-decent soution to their housing arrangements," they said in a statement. Geldof, 41, who organized the Live Aid concert in 1985, agreed to give his London house to the 36-year-old Yates. In exchange, he gets a home owned by INXS star Michael Hutchence, whose baby Yates is expecting. Geldof has a second home in Kent, outside London, where he is living with 25-year-old French actress Jeanne Marine.

All of us are having a really good time trying to decipher what it says because it's got 5 stanzas and each one has a different guy in it. We're all thinkin' "whoa, this girl gets around." Then she gets her chance to speak (the writer doesn't exist the class is done rippin' it apart - it's a freakin' workshop ). Anyway, she starts tellin' us that this is a dream she's written about. And that she dreams about famous people. So she says that the Woody in the first stanza is Woody Harelson and that the Michael in the second is Michael Hutchence, and that the Tom in the third...wait, what did she say? Michael Hutchence? Did I hear that right? Time to look at the poem a bit closer...this poem's about Michael? I doan' believe it. Why in the heck would Hutch be playin' basketball and blowing kisses to her thru the glass? What in the heck is that supposed to mean? So I ask her after class... "Are you a fan?" "no."............uh, o.k. "well, if you were I was gonna tell you that they've got a new album comin' out." "They're still alive?"............uh, o.k. "Yeah, they just got out of the studio and their album should be out around Oct 22nd." "God they must be about 60.".............uh, o.k. "No, they aren't." "Oh." I've officially given her an "F" - now, who wants to help me convince my prof?

Michael appears on the album and is quoted in the article, "It's been a real pleasure to work on it-great songs and great people". (Small pic of him, too).

Was I just really lucky in what station I had to listen to? And the new songs.. produced by Chris Thomas, the guy on X I believe.. they don't sound new at all. They sound like they belong on X.. which is ok, but new means not done 6 years ago. kevin ta crow - sad in st. louis but happy about the new album report.. heh..

Is he doing solo vocals, duet stuff or just back ups?

I second what Stazya says, just get them, both of them. They're great. Especially since you say you liked 'Just Keep Walking'. I was gonna try to list some of my most favorite songs from 'INXS', but I can't. Same with 'Underneath the Colours'. I pretty much love all their pre-Kick music. I pretty much love *all* their music, but the older stuff has a way about it that I can't describe very well. If you are an INXS fan then it's an absolute must to have these two in your collection. Besides, owning a band's music from start to current gives one a great idea of where they've been musically and how far they have travelled. Otoh, *I* will not buy the music from you if you should decide you don't like them. We are only giving opinions here, it's up to you to decide if you should or not. I realize Stazya was trying to prove a point (and I agree), but still, just so you don't get any ideas. :) I spend enough money on the various groups I listen do, don't need no double copies.... //////Roc\\\\\\ Date: Sun, 23 Jun 1996 15:27:51 -0400 X-Sender: sue@netway1.mdc.net To: INXS-list@iastate.edu From: Sue Subject: Re: Greatest Hits Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Sue >Just keep in mind, I don't have any steady employment (being a student and >all) so, if you really don't like the albums, you'll have to wait until I've >graduated, gotten a job, paid off my loans, figured out how to send mail >overseas.......

I personally couldn't care less about their popularity, so long as they keep releasing excellant albums; and I think Full Moon has its excellant moments, though was a tad limited. If they would continue in the Full Moon direction, or any direction that makes them happy, I'm sure whatever they do will be nifty (based on past work). As for one strong single.. isn't that kinda synonymous with 'compromising artistic integrity' to produce work that will 'sell'?

Mostly prefer music from the 80's. Beginning to think I may have been a closet Punker/New waver, but without the looks and clothes and junk. Scary thought, actually. I like to think of the assorted groups I listen to as my brand of alernative rock. It amused me once to be standing in a line to buy U2 concert tickets for the zoo tv tour and see some guy wearing the same INXS X shirt that I have (but was not wearing at the time).

Here's what was said: Hope I got everyone's comments, if I forgot yours, so sorry!!! Cheers, Mary ............................................................................ ........................................... THE RESULTS ARE IN - WHO SHOULD MIX THE NEW INXS ALBUM? As requested, here is the result of a poll taken recently on the INXS Internet Mailing List, fans presenting comments and suggestions on who should mix the new upcoming INXS album: In a message dated 96-04-25 11:46:02 EDT, in2xs@inxs.com (Mary Woods) writes: The band is extremely 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. While Bruce is producing, they haven't decided who should mix the album. Paul has asked for suggestions from all of you. From: Herzer Bruce R <3brh5@qlink.queensu.ca>: How about Hugh Padgham, of Police fame? I think he mixed Synchronicity, and that was a whopper. If they're going for a more produced sound, I like the Daniel Lanois suggestion. Or the fellow who did New Order's Republic -- Steven Hague was the producer, but I'm not sure who did the mixing. From: Crow : Eno may not be a mixer, ahh well.. maybe they'll let him produce the next album or something.. Anyway, as for a mixer, how bout Daniel Lanois? I think he'd be a truly awesome choice, the loud guitary/Enoesque feel he has just amazes me.. even if those two adjectives don't totally mix .I think if they're looking for a modern, rocking sound, Lanois is it! And, I like what Bob Clearmountain did with Bowie, and what he did with the Pretenders quite a bit.. I don't know that he'd really help them 'rock,' though, as what he mixes I *think* tends to be softer and more melodic.. Lanois is, like, *ROCKING* :} From: r-cruz@nwu.edu (R.J. Cruz): I for one think that it would be a bad idea for Flood to mix the album. First off, Flood does work with groups like NIN. If NIN sounded the way they did when they first came out, I wouldn't mind, but the new NIN is extremely bad. I have some very good, and very different ideas for who should mix INXS' next album...I think that there are three very wonderful and bright mixers that come to mind: Noah Evens, who did the self titled album for "Jars of Clay," Tom Lord-Alge, who does work with two of my favorite groups: "Newsboys," and "Dave Matthews Band." Last but not least, Hugh Padgham who basically does everything for Melissa Etheridge. I think that for the next INXS world tour, Newsboys should open. Buy their new album, "Take me to your Leader." I guarantee you'll like it. :-) Thanks for reading my suggestions! From: "John Vink" : Bob Clearmountain? The Greatest Hits mixing credits often only say "Mixed At Foo" rather than "Mixed by Bar at Foo". I know Bob C. did the Kick stuff, and that was pretty good. Some Swingish/Listenish mixing might be cool. From: "Joshua R. Fisher" : Dallas Austin, Flood (they are terrific...he should look into them, they've mixed for just about everyone on earth!). Lorimer (he did the Bitter Tears mixes..). These are some off the top of my head. I'll hunt around and see who else I can dig up. From: knoss@worldnet.att.net: In regards to ideas on mixing, the first person that comes to mind is Lanois but then again he might be too similar to Eno. I also think that he's presently working with Lusious Jackson. I personally think they should try someone completely new but yet someone with a proven track record. From: kristin tsafos : If you are still tracking suggestions for mixers...here are mine: Stephen Haigler (incredible work on Quicksand's albums, among others) From: chenm@ix.netcom.com (Michael Chen ): Well, if they're going for a 90's sound, I hope that doesn't mean grungy Butch Vig/Brendan O Brien mixing sound. Doesn't Eno count as a mixer, as he's done all those DM remixes? From: NKoth@aol.com: 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. Flood is primarily known as a producer, but he also mixes extensively. Therefore, he is definitely who I would hire to do the job... Anyone agree with me? Though I don't know what else he's done, Tim Simenon did a great job mixing on Michael's single, "The Passenger," so he might be worth a look as well. : Don't think your on a ledge at all, Flood would be a completely awesome choice too.. not as good as Lanois but only a marginal step below him. My only problem with him is that he goes for a smoother sound, even if it is loud, and I think it'd be great to here a more wild, rough album. From: NKoth@aol.com: Well, you may be right about a smooth but loud sound, but I think it really worked well on NIN's Downward Spiral and PJ Harvey's To Bring You My Love. As for having a wild, rough album sound reminiscent of FMDH, well... um...IMHO, I certainly hope not. But everyone is entitled to their opinions of course. So Lanois, Flood, and Clearmountain are early choices, huh? I'm sure they couldn't go wrong with Clearmountain again - WTWYA was quite a feat. From: Paul : I have to agree with Flood. I loved his work with NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, and Depeche Mode. But isn't U2 also coming out with an album around the same time as INXS? If so, he will probably be pretty tied up. If not, my vote goes for the Flood! From: Soren Ernest Johnson : Yes! I agree with you completely. 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. From: "GABRIEL F. MOLACHINO AMARO" : I am from Mexico City. I proposed Bob Clearmountain for the mix on the new album. He has worked with them in others albums, so they know each other very well. From: tymothil@hwsys.com: mixers: Flood, Chris (?) Clearmountain ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ........ So it does appear the clear and popular choices are: Flood, Lanois, and Clearmountain, with Tom Lord-Alge, Noah Evans, Dallas Austin, Lorimer, Eno, Stephen Haigler, and Tim Simenon pulling in a few votes, as well ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ........

Why a fiasco? 'Cause it didn't sell well? And I dont mean to be negative, but this album wont sell either, no matter how brilliant we all think it is. The PUBLIC wants to hear rap crap and dance shit, not rock. And despite that, INXS has been either bagged out by (at least) the Aussie press, and those who actually say something nice, dont say it loud enough. The radio stations played the music. But I guess not many people think our guys have anything interesting to say any more. I still dont think it was a fiasco though.

I always thought of X as Kick 2 myself, it sounds so similar. I think someone here once referred to it as Kick Lite or some such, which seems appropriate. I think Kick *was* the turning point in their career. Don't mean to be negative here, but it seems to me that whenever bands hit the one album that seems to put them over the top in a *big* way, they can never seem to do it again. I know I'm wrong, but I'm thinking of the music I've always liked, not the mainstream stuff. Examples for me would be U2: Joshua Tree was an extremely popular album and they've not been quite as successful since, at least I don't think so. Another one would be Billy Idol: Whiplash Smile was an extremely popular album and he's also not been able to top that one. Pink Floyd's big one was Dark Side of the Moon. This is not to say that each of these bands' music sucked after, just that their popularity was never quite the same. They seem to put out one album that got *everyones'* attention and then sort of plateaued. And this is only how I view the scene. For me personally, once each band hits the really big one, I can only seem to truly appreciate all their older stuff, before they got big, except for Pink Floyd, but that's a whole different story. > I think the critical point in the promotion will be MTV......if they would >wake up and begin supporting the bands that made them who they are now the >record industry might start improving ! I just recently saw a "World >Premier" on MTV....my first thought was "THEY STILL HAVE THESE ? Speaking of eMpTy V, did anyone read the latest rolling stone letters section where the president of MTV wrote in response to a recent article that the RS did on MTV? She was pretty pissed. She thinks everyone should stop complaining about the non-music format that they are into now because after all, it's "a permanent part of the script at this point...". My thing is why should MTV stand for Music Television if they're not playing music a majority of the time. Or something that remotely resembles music, anyways. There was also mention of this MTV2 station in her letter and that previous article, which I did not see, but no details. Anyways, I found her letter and RS response to her quite interesting and funny. Sorry for the length...and WOW, this list has seen more action in one day then it normally sees in one week.

I don't feel the album was their best work by any stretch of the imagination, but it does have great music. I like INXS for their uniqueness, which did not really show too much on FMDH, imo, of course.

He seems to think that rap will be dying out soon, or at least the better rap (there's such a thing?). He seems to think that rap is losing it's popularity. It could be that he's just getting older and moving away from it. I'm hoping to see him develope a more independent taste in music, not just liking it because it's the thing to do. But then, we all go thru this stage early in life. I figure rap should never have lasted as long as it did. //////Roc\\\\\\ Date: Sun, 23 Jun 1996 21:54:17 -0400 X-Sender: sue@netway1.mdc.net To: INXS-list@iastate.edu From: Sue Subject: Re: New Album Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Sue > Don't mean to be negative here, but it seems to me that whenever bands hit the >one album that seems to put them over the top in a *big* way, they can never >seem to do it again. On a whole I think you're right but there have been bands that have put out hit albums after the plateau albums. Although I agree about U2 and Joshua Tree there are many who would say Achtung Baby was a great achievment (I don't agree BTW but that's a whole other arguement), REM consistently puts out albums that are called "new" and "great". >This is not to say that each of these bands' music sucked after, just that >their popularity was never quite the same. This is an excellent point. The general music buying public seems to gravitate towards hits and if there are no hits they equate that with lousy work. What a shame. >Speaking of eMpTy V, did anyone read the latest rolling stone letters >section where the president of MTV wrote in response to a recent article >that the RS did on MTV?

I think that with the new management that the band has and hopefully a revamped PR team we will see a great improvement in the strategies used in the "hype" of the new album ! I really think that Tim (yes you) is out there taking notes on what we fans think and hopefully taking things back to the appropriate people and expressing our opinions...and hopefully things will turn out differently "this time". But as for the theory that the release of FMDH's vid album was a fiasco I really don't think so ! I just hope that it comes out in October and not November. November hasn't been too kind to them in the last 3 years with the release of FMDH & GH in the month of November . But that's just my humble opinion ! I know all this talk about the early stuff I am listening to"Underneath the Colours" right now ! Wow !!!! I forgot how INCREDIBLE "Just to Learn Again" is !!!!!

It is true that the public regards this band as old news, but all they need is one tremendous single and that label will change into new and hip. People will like them for the nostalgia. They will say "Hey remember INXS? Listen to this new song by them!" Look at Duran Duran. Everyone wrote them off as an 80's band and no one expected to hear from them again. But in 1993 Ordinary World brought them back from the edge of oblivion. They showed it is possible for an 80's band to make a comeback. It all depends on the strength of the music. I know Andrew can write another Need You Tonight or Suicide Blonde. A grand song to wake up the world.

I think several omens of the upcoming success of the new album can be seen in the success of recent albums of other bands who are often labeled as 80's, modern rock, dance rock, synth pop, etc...anyways I've always seen them closer to INXS than say, Pearl Jam or a grunge band. Maybe I'm just misslabeling everything, but... Simple Minds comeback album...didn't really comeback except for one medium hit Duran Duran's post comeback album...got trashed by everyone (except me) and didn't sell very well Erasure's new album...did about as well as FMDH did on the charts, even with their previous album doing decent The Cure's new album...less than spectacular, after hitting #1 with Wish, it was a bit disappointing. Blur's new album was never really accepted in the states. On the other hand, more guitar/grunge oriented bands seem to having success. How else do you explain Bush or Oasis? And most of them sound pretty much the same. *Sigh* It doesn't look like the general public really wants an INXS sounding album, i.e. one with interesting lyrics, layered keyboards and guitars mixed well-it wants simple straight forward guitar rock. Maybe I'm looking to far into this, but I think that INXS will have great success in the UK where the music seems to be a bit more diverse, but here...I'd be happy with it hitting gold-that's a decent amount of albums sold- and playing not the arenas/stadiums, but maybe the large theaters 3-5000 people.

Oh, I gotta agree with you on that last part.. and the people who do are silly :} But when someone is in music for a long time, they can begin to tell what sells better and not quite so well, so it is in their power to 'sell out'.. I cite David Bowie with his albums Scary Monsters, Let's Dance, Never Let Me Down.. all were critical success and he got rich off them, and now he's back to making dark albums with Brian Eno and running off on whatever little tangent he likes. As for whether I like Bowie sellign out or not for a few albums... well, they are still damn fine albums :} As for keeping an ear open to tres modern sounds.. well I guess.

To: "INXS LIST" Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: "Diab-ABD015 Basil" Alright, all of you pessimists...Enough worrying about the new album. So what if it's not commercially successful? Are we worried more about album sales, or about their music? I think you all know that you will like the new album no matter what. One thing we can say about INXS is that they possess their own original sound on which they have based many creative variations. This new album will no doubt follow suit in that tradition. When U2 released "Rattle and Hum" the critics trashed it and they sank into temporary obscurity. The result? "Achtung Baby" and the ZOO TV tour. There you go. Besides, it's not their fault that their albums haven't been successful. They haven't received the promotional push they deserve. Is it fair that Sony spent $30 million promoting Michael Jackon's awful History album? I think not. (Which leads me to ask of all of you European list members why people in Europe continue to flock to MJ's concerts in record numbers. Have you all gone mad? That's just something people here in the U.S. were wondering. But I digress....) Anyway, I would rather be able to see Mr. Hutchence and the band up close in a loud, intimate environment rather than with binoculars from the 500th row. Here in Chicago, they played a 5,000 seat theater during the FMDH tour and it was by far the best concert performance I had ever seen. I could actually see the band's facial expressions without looking at a large TV screen!

Those groups released two albums each year. That demanded that the groups stay in a composing mode all of the times. And in no way can you say that the overall composing quality suffered. These groups actually changed the style of music while writing continuously. Actually, isn't that what musicians do as a job, compose and perform? The way it stands now is that the record company wants to have an album generate six or seven potential singles (Thriller, Whitney Houston's First, Rumor, Rhythm Nation, Cracked Rear View, Fore, Kick) so they can sell >10 million copies of that one album. Why??? Less production costs and certainly less promotion costs for the label. Prince is an example of what the record companies don't want --- someone who is profilic and has music to release every nine months to a year. From what I heard, that was his primary beef with the record company --- they would not release all of the material that he delivered. Think of guys like Cole Porter who wrote over 1000 songs in his career. The way the industry is setup today, these artist will be lucky to have 200 songs from a lenghty career. And isn't that music listeners want is songs, good songs?

Michael Stipe has repeatedly said in interviews that REM's muse for the Monster LP was echobelly's stirring debut single, "Bellyache." (echobelly is one of my favorite bands, so any slagging on them will be treated as an act of war.) In any event, I have also heard that much of REM's new forthcoming album was recorded while on tour in bathrooms, etc. Yet another rip-off from echobelly, who recorded b-sides to their single "Great things" in ... you guessed it ... a bathroom. Just because REM has a bigger name does not warrant them being considered the innovators. That all aside, I have always loved REM, and probably will.

I'm not real familiar with echobelly specifically, but I know on multiple occasions one band has publicized another and the more popular publicizing band gets all the credit (U2: The Fly wasn't, while being an absolutely EXCELLANT song, the most original song on Achtung Baby) It's kind of a pity that there is remarkably little chance for a creative collaboration between any of these 3 bands (REM, U2, and some other band I think we used to discuss here time to time called INXS :}), and toss Depeche Mode in the mix too.. they are all excellant, have a lot in common, and have pioneered their own corner of music. kevin ta crow - oicm3h #231 crowa@medicine.wustl.edu p.s.

I, for one, just wanna be able to say, "Mariah, please step aside. Oh U2, you're not the only original band that changes its sound and look all the time. And more importantly, Hootie, move over -- INXS is taking over the top slot!!!!!" It would feel really good to hear they've sold 15 zillion records. Then at least we could be assured that the radio stations and the video channels would play INXS day and night they way we wanna hear them. OK, I'm officially done cheering for the moment.

INXS has a certain enlightened, transcending "magic" to their sound. larger than life. you all know exactly what i mean! :) to me, FMDH just lacked that, except in the title track. i think "Deliver me" touched on a nice medium though, between a spontaneous jam, with nice production. i just really want to see this new album be as rock solid as shabooh shoobah and WTWYA! what does everyone else think? -josh Date: Mon, 24 Jun 1996 12:35:48 -0500 (CDT) From: Phil McClean To: inxs-list Subject: CD Now View of INXS Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Phil McClean Do you know about CD Now?

As far as I know, this is a recent thing, because EVERYWHERE that I went in Europe, they had these CDclock things for different bands. I dunno, maybe I've just been behind the times. In any event, I apologize for the word "collectible." I consider anything and everything of INXS' to be a collectible, hence my usage of the word. I am by no means saying that the item is worth alot - it probably isn't - but that diehards will want to have it of course. neil Date: Tue, 25 Jun 1996 21:26:37 +0000 From: James S Hutchins To: Katherine Julien Cc: inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: All Juiced Up...

That's why you probably can't find it. It would be an import-only in Canada as well as the US, so it's hard to find. It was a limited edition as well, so that makes it even harder to find . Someone from Oz posted a message a few weeks ago who said there seemed to be plenty of them available in their country, and I'm sorry I don't remember who that was. Perhaps this person can contact Katherine and help her out? Do a trade, if you can. Email me if you need WTWYA, as there are plenty available in the stores near me, and I can help you obtain a copy.

INXS to me is kinda a funk rock.... when they stray into boringness pop like "TIME", they loose their edge..

They write: "INXS: An abbreviation of "in excess," the name was chosen by the Australian band on the suggestion of one of its roadies in 1979. The band performed behind a wall of lights in Devo-style clothing without saying anything to the audience, except to identify their songs with the stark introduction, "Ours." The stage gimmick was short-lived but the name remained."

To: SNP3@aol.com Cc: "INXS LIST" Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: "Diab-ABD015 Basil" Josh, My take on FMDH: An incredible rocker with great catchy guitar chords and melodic hooks. My problem was that all the songs seemed to have potential to be better, except for "Days of Rust" which was perfect! Michael and Andrew write incredible songs, but sometimes the songs (esp. on FMDH) come across as "too much studio". If they want a raw sound they should take notes from Pearl Jam. Critics aren't always thrilled with their albums, but they are almost unanimous in their praise of INXS' live performances. For example, when they performed "Viking Juice" live, Tim and Kirk cranked up the guitars and Michael set the lyrics to a little melody and sang the words deliberately off tempo. The result was perfection! I think if they emulate their live sound on their albums, people will wake up and realize how great they are...Why was "Kick" such a critical and commercial success? Listen to the title track and you'll hear bass line, drum beat, guitar chord, and most importantly Michael's voice, come flying out of the speakers with such power and clarity, esp in the last 15 seconds of the song where he's screaming "Sometimes you kick, Sometimes you get kicked". Sorry I'm rambling, but I love this band! _______________________________________________________________________________ From: SNP3@aol.com on Tue, Jun 25, 1996 11:22 PM Subject: just to learn again...

INXS has a certain enlightened, transcending "magic" to their sound. larger than life. you all know exactly what i mean! :) to me, FMDH just lacked that, except in the title track. i think "Deliver me" touched on a nice medium though, between a spontaneous jam, with nice production. i just really want to see this new album be as rock solid as shabooh shoobah and WTWYA! what does everyone else think? -josh Date: Wed, 26 Jun 1996 17:46:19 -0400 X-Sender: sue@netway1.mdc.net To: INXS-list@iastate.edu From: Sue Subject: Re: Hey y'all Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: Sue >Thanks Sue...

I can't remember when it's supposed to start but for some reason the fall sticks in my mind. It is rumored to be like what MTV used to be - a station that played music videos. However there was a letter to the editor in Rolling Stone magazine ( I think it was about 2 issues ago) from an executive at MTV seemingly denying this. I don't know, I guess I'm getting nostalgic for the 'ol days when video didn't rule. It seems that there's alot of great bands out there that just don't get any airplay because they don't have the right look or they don't have a flashy enough video. Although this is probably heresey since INXS does owe alot of success to MTV for giving them alot of air time during the Kick and X years. -Sue sue@mdc.net http://www.mdc.net/~sue Date: Thu, 27 Jun 1996 23:23:27 +0000 From: James S Hutchins To: Crow Cc: NKoth@aol.com, inxs-list@iastate.edu Subject: Re: New Album References: Sender: owner-inxs-list@iastate.edu Reply-To: James S Hutchins re.
