Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

No haircut too lousy, no fashion mistake too obvious: INXS were as much an emblem (symptom?) of the 1980s as Bon Jovi, while never achieving quite the same level of sustained appeal. This album (along with Kick, which followed it) marked their commercial peak, presenting their strongest-ever line-up of songs. Tracks like "What You Need" and "This Time" demonstrated their knack with a groove and a chorus, respectively--and played shamelessly to the sexual stage persona of frontman Michael Hutchence (who had a decent voice, for a man in leather trousers). Intriguingly, both "Shine Like It Does" and "Kiss The Dirt (Falling Down The Mountain)" resonate with a clear sense of their Australian origins: the wide outback, the vastness of the sky; while "Three Sisters"--an "experimental soundscape"--briefly recalls their brief flirtation with post-punk, as Sydney teenagers besotted with the likes of Gang of Four And Pere Ubu. Who would have thought it? --Andrew McGuire

Format:Audio CD
inxs sound miles ahead of any of the other bands of the 80's there austalian swagger and beautiful melodies and vocal harmonies are wonderful you've got the bright eyed smiling lead singer called michael hutchence singing beautiful words with a backbone of lavish gold of keyboards guitars and drums and a hint of sax here and there not many bands make songs as good as INXS did!! they made album after album of pure auality and this being an early one is just fantastic

INXS rock 3 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Listen Like Thieves is an outstanding CD. The music ranges from gentle-relaxing to sing-your-guts-out-rock. This CD has aged less than many other CDs of its time, including other INXS CDs. For people new to INXS's back catalogue, this CD represents INXS developing a sound of their own and so this CD is a must buy. I recommend this CD to any rock or pop fan. Listen to it and enjoy!!

This is probably their first major album before they really exploded onto the international stage.
With diverse tracks and true rock god singing, it paved the way for Kick!
