 Nice try, but not great Aug 16, 2008
This album has a sound slightly similar to that of the old INXS, but to me it feels more like an imitation that tries too hard to be the old INXS.
This album does have a good sound that brings back memories of the old INXS. But it doesn't have a great sound that it should. I guess it was a decent try as their first album. The songs start off well, but then go into a mediocre sound and end poorly. The lead singer needs to stop trying to be an impersonator, stop trying to be like Michael Hutchence and develop his own style.
I loved the songs of the old INXS (with Michael Hutchence), and I have them loaded on my MP3 CDs in my car. But regarding this CD, I don't want to load any of the songs on my MP3 CDs. (I only listen to music in my car, and I don't own an iPod so I am selective of the songs.)
INXS still has the rest of the group who did write great songs in the past, and all it takes is the proper performance, which I think the new lead singer can be able to develop into posibly on the next album.
One of the great songs is Devil's Party.
Some of the songs that start off well but become mediocre are:
Pretty Vegas, Afterglow, God's Top Ten.
The other songs are just ok.
Slightly Lacking Jul 12, 2008
JD Fortune really has a great voice. It's deep, rich and sexy. I was so looking forward to this album. However I think his voice is underused. The music is louder than him making it difficult to hear him. I like a few of the songs. Devils Party is to much like the Devil Inside. Pretty Vegas I love but again the music is to loud compared to the voice. Some of the songs seem alike. I felt dissappointed but still it's good. I'm hoping for a better second album. I give it a four because his voice is so good.
 Great Album! Jun 11, 2008
I was skeptical about buying the new album from INXS, only because I wasn't sure how the new singer JD was going to fill the shoes of the original singer. I was more then pleased! JD has stepped up nicely and has more then just fit in, he has added his own style to the INXS sound. This Album is a must for any fan of INXS. Being a touring drummer myself, I particularly enjoyed this solid work! The opening track is crisp and I love the horns, very nice touch! And Afterglow is just one of those tunes I can listen to over and over again! Just beautiful! Well done gentlemen! My advice....BUY THIS ALBUM, you will not be dissappointed! Eric

It's about time - Worth the wait buy it to enjoy - Welcome to Inxs JD
Not Bad...... Jan 09, 2008
...but not great either. "Dirty Vegas", "God's Top Ten" and "Afterglow" are all standouts. The rest of the cd is just o.k. to somewhat stale. Worth a few bucks just for the three best tunes. Would enjoy seeing them live with the new lead singer, he's great!
