ALBUM: KICK
SONG: DEVIL INSIDE
DATE: FEBRUARY 1988
STATUS: ACQUIRED
INXS carries through with a danceability that 90's acts would avoid but that was completely in keeping with early rock. Dance and authenticity aren't often associated, but INXS in the death throws of the go-go 80's some how managed to mix the two. The Devil Inside walks the line of embracing our inner lotharios and warning of the consequences, and though much of the aesthetic they espoused would be thrown aside in the decade to come, the conflict embedded in this song would continue to be a central theme. Anyway, go out and have a good time. Its Friday, and no one needs you until Monday.
