This isn't a bad album, but not my favourite. In the end, Midnight Oil are just another pop group. The lyrics pretty much sum up the spirit of the album:
"My gut is wrenched out it is crunched up and broken.
My life that is lived is nore tham a token.
Who'll strike the flint upon the stone and tell me why?"
---Midnight Oil, Blue Sky Mine
I like this album quite a bit---the music is a lot more haunting though Garrett seems to be losing his voice in this one (or perhaps the mixing is bad). The keyboards particularly stand out on this one.
