This was a wanderful effort from the Austrailian group. One has to remember that Midnight Oil's music runs heavy with social issues, and this album is no exception. The first cut "Blue Sky Mining" deals with the corruption and heartache of the opal mining industry, and the rest of the music offered runs the same gambit. I found it terrific. The lyrics, the tempo, and the polish of all the cuts were all top notch. It is too bad that Midnight Oil has not gotten the credit that I feel that it is due. If you want to take in a well made album, check this one out.

Midnight Oil Blue Sky Mining

"This band rocks. They give you reality through their music, you feel like you are rebelling with them and the hard working blue collar man. The lyrics are well written. I especially love "Antartica" and with the Global warming and environmental changes happening, you wonder how much longer it will survive. These songs will never get old with me, I could listen to them over and over and never get tired of them. This is one CD you must add to your collection."
