The adage if its not broken, dont fix it applies to INXS X. Named to commemorate the bands tenth year together, the 1990 album came on the heels of the mega-platinum and era-defining Kickand all the pressures that come with such a follow-up. INXS doesnt blink, however, turning in a record as catchy, boundary-defying, and immediate as its predecessor. It stands as the last blockbuster of the bands career, and deservedly so.
X commences with one of the finest one-two-three punches in pop history. With a sample of blues legend Charlie Musselwhites riveting harmonica situated up next to a crunchy R&B riff, Suicide Blonde seizes upon the charisma of vocalist Michael Hutchence, whose breathy delivery accentuates the songs edginess, mystery, and desirable allure. In Disappear, INXS final Top Ten single, synthesized orchestrations and a loping bass line build up to a memorable chorus, elevated by a spiky guitar and Hutchences urgency. Arguably the groups dramatic peak, The Stairs oozes beauty and longing, the climbing arrangement hinting at triumph and will.
If theres a secret to the albums success, it resides with the scintillating beats. Every tune resonates with a perfect sense of rhythm and drums that combine the textures of arena rock, soul, and dance. Producer Chris Thomas, with whom INXS claimed its greatest successes, ensures the bands music never gets crowded or claustrophobic. Spaciousness reigns, broadening the impact of the grooves and accenting the vulnerability of Hutchences tones. From all angles, X is pop confection, a fastidious creation of tasteful hooks, teeming melodies, and enticing lyrics.
