Midnight Oil
Comment:
The words ring like a gunshot even today: "How do we sleep when our beds are burning?" A great question, really, especially when it's presented in the form of a subversive smash featuring more hooks than a fishing expedition. Midnight Oil massaged its blend of politics and pop into an art form throughout its 25 years together, thanking the working man with pogo rhythms ("Blue Sky Mine"), combating crooked kings with handclaps and harmonies ("The Dead Heart"), and prefacing the leftist pop-punk of Green Day by a couple decades ("Powderworks").
