In 2011, as part of a new, long-term agreement, the complete catalogue from one of Australia's greatest ever bands, INXS, is proudly reissued by Universal Music. The enviable body of work from one of the world's most popular bands of the past 30 years enjoys a long-overdue remaster and regeneration – a band who have provided the soundtrack to all our lives.

The band's most successful releases include 1987's "Kick," with global sales of 10 million,1990's "X" and 1992's "Welcome To Wherever You Are".

This box set compiles the band's enviable 10-album catalogue, in a heavy card slipcase – available for a limited time only in Australia, UK & Europe. The 10 remastered albums will also be on sale individually and via iTunes.

Yeah this is totally excellent, there CDS needed to be big time remastering. The sound is shit espeically on the earlier ones. though there were a few remasters of KICK,X<and Welcome to wherever, which were all great albums, things like The Swing, Listen Like Thieves, and Shooboh clearly were their best works, but it will be great, though, too bad the bonus tracks are none? whats with that? Inxs has tons of bsides and 12" mixes and covers and studio demos to make a box just of that. But glad this is happening, along with their current tour its kicking ass and coming to america later this year!

All a bit pointless. No bonus tracks.

Shame that they never did a tour with Terence Trent D'Arby singing. He fitted so well with what they do.

the bonus tracks is a let down, however those cds needed to be improved and remastered, almost all sound very very low. The interesting thing though i think this is something thrown together by the label without really getting up with the band, as you see its mainly overseas, also the band iis now on tour and not even has mentioned this on their site at all, the talk is all about the tour, the "Original Sin" record and work on the new album.

As for TTD fronting this band, it would be a disaster, sure its cool, to have him up there as a one-off but his head is way to big to be in a band, i can see INXS booting him after a few shows easily, and forget about an album ever happening with him, two different worlds they are in, TTD is great but no way a BAND person. JD is perfect for this band and thank god hes back on board and touring/recording with them

No point really. They should have put this out before the expanded remasters of the main albums. I'm not buying half of them again with less tracks on.

Single discs for me, and the first three albums don't do anything for me. they are more of a work in progress.

I much prefer listening to the re-recorded 90's version of something like Stay Young than the terribly thin original.
