iTunes Review

Filling the shoes of the late singer Michael Hutchence is an impossible task and surely some INXS fans will not take kindly to hearing the catalog he amassed with his band being reinterpreted by a long list of impressive guests. Considering that Hutchence delivered definitive versions of these songs, these reinterpretations are very much a daring adventure. The artist featured on any given track is given plenty of room to explore. Tricky turns “Mediate” upside down into a keyboard-heavy piece where guitars are used strategically. Ben Harper adds his hippie-roots soul to a passionate read of “Never Tear Us Apart” that sounds like a call out to Hutchence. Train’s Pat Monahan turns “Beautiful Girl” into one of his songs. Nikka Costa dares to take on “Kick” by turning the song into a moody reverie. Deborah de Corral transforms “New Sensation” into a husky blues. Project Rockstar winner JD Fortune emulates Hutchence on “The Stairs” for an eerie event. The bonus track, “Devil Inside,” featuring Ben Harper and Nikka Costa, is a seductive winner, capturing Hutchence’s raw sexuality and allowing the band to sizzle.

Are you kidding me?

Those responsible for this will be karmically punished

Seriously?

You should just leave the music of one of the worlds greates bands alone. INXS was genius, this is not. It's not original but it is a sin.

Oh no they didn't.....

This is a disaster! Maybe the only song that was ok was Don't Change thanks to Andrew covering it. Sorry but they need to leave the originals by MH alone! No one can replace him! We miss you!

INXS hailed from the pubs of Australia, which is part of the reason the band never comfortably fit in with new wave. Even when they branched out into synth pop on their early recordings, they were underpinned by a hard, Stonesy beat and lead singer Michael Hutchence's Jagger-esque strut. Ultimately, these were the very things that made INXS into international superstars in the late '80s. By that time, the group had harnessed its hard rock, dance, and new wave influences into a sleek, stylish groove...
