Our Take

Album: MEN AT WORK - Cargo

Do you ever listen to an album and think, "Wow, this is like a musical journey around the world, but with a hint of Australian charm"? Well, that's exactly what MEN AT WORK's "Cargo" delivers. This album is a wild ride from start to finish, with its catchy hooks, infectious energy, and quirky lyrics that will have you tapping your foot and singing along in no time.

From the opening track "Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive," you know you're in for a good time. The band's unique blend of rock, reggae, and new wave influences creates a sound that is instantly recognisable and undeniably fun. Songs like "Overkill" and "It's a Mistake" showcase the band's ability to tackle serious subjects with a light-hearted touch, while tracks like "High Wire" and "No Restrictions" will have you dancing around your living room like nobody's watching.

But what really sets MEN AT WORK apart is their signature sound. Colin Hay's distinctive vocals, Greg Ham's killer saxophone solos, and the band's overall tight instrumentation make this album a true classic. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to the world of Australian rock, "Cargo" is an album that will have you coming back for more. Trust me, this album is like a good bottle of Australian wine - it only gets better with age. So grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to be taken on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers!

About the artist

Men at Work

MEN AT WORK: The Strine Sensations Men at Work, the iconic Australian band that burst onto the music scene in the 1980s, have left an indelible mark on the history of rock and pop. Led by the enigmatic frontman Colin Hay, this quintet from Down Under has been hailed as iconic music masters, blending catchy melodies with socially conscious lyrics. Their debut album, "Business as Usual," was a smash hit, achieving multi-platinum status and dominating the airwaves with anthems like "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now?" The band's distinctive sound, characterized by Colin Hay's unmistakable vocals and Greg Ham's infectious saxophone riffs, set them apart from their contemporaries. Despite their initial success, Men at Work faced their fair share of challenges. Legal disputes over the iconic flute riff in "Down Under" brought the band to the brink of collapse, leading to a hiatus in the late 1980s. However, they made a triumphant return to the stage in the 2000s, showcasing their enduring popularity and musical prowess. Men at Work's influence can still be felt in the music industry today, with artists citing them as inspiration for their own work. From indie rock to pop, their legacy lives on through their timeless hits and innovative sound. So, if you're looking for a taste of Australian music history with a sprinkle of wit and charm, look no further than Men at Work. These "Men at play" have proven time and time again that their music is as relevant and exciting as ever. Cheers to the land Down Under and the musical magic of Men at Work.
