About this album
Beautiful is a smart, characterful new wave album that shows The Reels at their most inventive and slyly expressive. Issued in 1982, it blends electronic textures with sharp pop instincts, recasting familiar songs such as This Guy’s In Love (With You), Where Is the Love? and La Mer through the band’s detached wit and precise arrangements. The record reflects The Reels’ ability to make cover versions feel conceptually fresh rather than merely nostalgic, while original material like Science Is Golden and Prefab Heart adds to its offbeat appeal. Its cult reputation has endured as a distinctive Australian take on post-punk and synth-era pop.
