Title: Win Inxs' 'Kick: 25th Anniversary" albums - Brisbane 4KQ
Post by: culturebird on Wednesday 26 September 2012, 12:44:57 am
This week in 4KQ’s Online Freebies you could win a copy of the INXS re-mastered album ‘Kick’ celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Australian #1 album.

Released in 1987, ‘KICK’ propelled INXS to a new level, cementing their reputation and firmly establishing the band as a force to be reckoned with, worldwide. Kick changed everything, becoming a slow-burning phenomenon.

Thanks to its trailblazing lead single, ‘Need You Tonight’, INXS broke out around the world over the next 18 months.  If ever a record embodied the oxymoron ‘complex simplicity’, Kick, the sixth album by INXS – Michael Hutchence, Andrew Farriss, Kirk Pengilly, Tim Farriss, Garry Gary Beers and Jon Farriss – is it.

It’s an album so full of surprise;  even from a distance of 25 years, when you listen to it, you’re still waiting and wondering what exactly is about to happen next.

The album spawned 4 Australian top 20 singles in a row including hits such as ‘Need You Tonight’, ‘New Sensation’, ‘Devil Inside’, and the timeless anthem ‘Never Tear Us Apart’, alongside fan favourites ‘Guns In The Sky’, the title-track ‘Kick’ and ‘Wild Life’. Certified eight times platinum in the US alone, Kick sold over 14 million copies worldwide.
