About this album

INXS’s self-titled debut introduced the Sydney band’s lean pop-rock with striking confidence. Issued in 1980, the album shows the group already balancing sharp hooks, driving rhythm and Michael Hutchence’s poised vocal presence, setting out the formula that would later make them international stars. With songs such as Just Keep Walking and On A Bus, it captures a band moving quickly from pub-rock roots towards a more polished, melodic identity. The record is an early statement of intent rather than a fully realised classic, but it remains an important first chapter in INXS’s development and Australian rock history.
