    About this album

    Diesel and Dust is Midnight Oil’s landmark statement, the album that turned their fierce Australian rock into a worldwide success. Released in 1987, it sharpened the band’s anthemic sound into something leaner and more urgent, with Peter Garrett’s commanding vocals fronting songs that confronted land rights, environmental damage and the realities of rural Australia. Driven by tracks such as Beds Are Burning, Dreamworld and The Dead Heart, the album helped make politically engaged rock both commercially potent and culturally resonant. Its blend of muscle, melody and conscience has kept it one of the defining albums of the era.

    Genre: Pop & Rock
