Cargo

by Men at Work

Riding the unprecedented global momentum of their blockbuster debut, the Australian quintet returned with a notably darker, more anxious sophomore effort. 'Cargo' retains their signature saxophone flourishes and reggae-inflected pop-rock grooves while exploring themes of paranoia, nuclear war, and the pressures of sudden fame. Anchored by major international hits like 'Overkill' and 'It's a Mistake', the record solidified their standing as central figures of the early MTV era.
