<title>INXS SPLIT!!!!</title>
<description> Announced this morn on australian tv. They played last show last night and announced to the crowd it was their last, and they are going seperate ways.
personally, i love INXS, were great in the 80's/early 90's, but they never got over Hutchences death, and never could hold a firm singer, although i loved JD. JD was the only one worthy.
35 years is still a great margin in longevity.</description><link>http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919274,919274#msg-919274</link><lastBuildDate>Sun, 19 May 2013 03:27:32 +1000</lastBuildDate>

And I remember reading stuff about how the album was recorded. Like, using a very old drum kit from the 60s and just 3 microphones (one for the bass-drum) and two overheads. That's... incredibly &quot;old-school&quot; (sure, only works if the kit itself sounds like a monster).<br /><br />However, I think that the bad press Hutchence got due to his strange relationship with Bob Geldof's (then) Ex-wife finally killed INXS's fame in the UK and it was too bad that he died that young.]]></description>

These days, the word &quot;split&quot; seems to mean a break of a few years (which bands do anyway between records) before the big comeback, hype, tour etc. Who knows..watch this space.]]></description>

I totally understand why the band wanted to continue once they finally got over the loss of Michael's death, i mean, what else were they supposed to do? Having said that, they totally lost their credibility once they decided to continue, especially after the ROCKSTAR drama with JD FORTUNE. Jon Stevens had a few good years with INXS and they were kicking ass live (i seen them twice with him), but that ended bad and the ROCKSTAR show was just cheese, although JD FORTUNE was a good singer and showman and the band even seemed to re-gain some success in some parts of the world again. A few years later and JD is out and some boring guy called CIARAN GRIBBIN is announced as the new singer. Its plain obvious that HUTCHENCE (to an extent) WAS INXS and the band will never get over that. HUTCHENCE was a great singer and showman and is totally irreplacable! Defo one of the all time great Australian bands and at one point, even as big as U2 worldwide. Sad how times change. Music is timeless though. I think i'll go and listen to THE SWING! Peace.]]></description>
