About this album

Shanghaied is a sharp, synth-driven New Wave album that shows Mi-Sex refining their energetic blend of pop-rock and electronic textures. Released in 1981, it followed the success of the band’s breakthrough and pushed further into glossy hooks, taut rhythms and nervy, futuristic arrangements. The album reflects the late-1970s and early-1980s shift toward synthesiser-led rock, while still keeping the punch and immediacy that made Mi-Sex stand out. Its title track and songs such as The Jungle helped define the record’s urgent, stylish character, making Shanghaied an important part of the band’s catalogue and the Australasian New Wave era.
