Album Notes & Community Reviews

The second studio album by the Australian rock group marks a stylistic shift towards a slicker, synthesizer-driven new wave sound. Anchored by the songwriting of Ross Wilson and Eric McCusker, the record combines highly polished power pop melodies with sharp, energetic arrangements, yielding several major chart hits and cementing the band's commercial dominance in the early 1980s.
