I wish more artists and albums could combine stellar musicianship with powerful melodies and poignant, topical, forward thinking lyrics. Bravo, Midnight Oil, this was your best.

Beds Are Burning remains a singularly epic radio song. The Dead Heart is excellent and was very dutifully redone by Alexisonfire (quite nicely imo). The rest of this has some fine songs including Put Down that Weapon, Woah, Bullroarer and Dreamworld. To me, though, the clincher that makes this album great is the killer, epic deep album cut Warakurna.

This album is a national treasure in Australia. Unfortunately, since it's so hard to get away from it over here. Still, you gotta love Midnight Oil.
