Cultural Facts:
Studio Lore The Swing was the album where INXS started pushing harder toward international dance-rock, working with producer Nile Rodgers on “Original Sin.”
Personal Struggle Michael Hutchence later suffered a serious head injury in 1992 that damaged his sense of smell and taste, with friends connecting the injury to depression and personality changes.
Political Science “Original Sin” dealt directly with interracial relationships at a time when mainstream pop still often avoided that subject, giving the band’s breakthrough a sharper social edge.
