Epi 44: The X Album Review.
They say the hardest thing to do once you’ve climbed the peak of a mountain in a sporting or artistic sense is to stay there!
So when INXS graduated to the biggest band on the planet during 1988 and 1989, the pressure was on to surpass “Kick” with its next album. Album X as Michael Hutchence often referred to it marked a shift in songwriting, lyrical maturity, and Michael’s vocal delivery.
A front ended with the dynamic Suicide Blonde, Disappear, By my Side, and the unsurpassed The Stairs, X definitely consolidated INXS’ reputation as a band to be reckoned with.
However, 30 years later, was it the artistic statement the band wanted?
Did it play safe?
Did it achieve the intended goal of maintaining that position at the apex of the mountain?
Tune into the first of our two-part special that is Album X and “hear that sound” that was INXS 1990. #inxsmusic #inxs #inxsfans #christhomasproducer #inxsxalbum #suicideblonde #1991music #inxsxtour #inxstour
