4.0 excellent | lz41 | February 19th 14 | '10 to 1' opens with a line both beautiful and chilling: "There's a wind on the Eastern side/Ghost gums dance in the moonlit night/Mopoke warns of racketeers." That song, 'Outside World', reflects an infestation in Australian culture, in both the natural land and suburban towns. Few albums have been as committedly critical of their national culture, yet so popular, as Midnight Oil's third: working class oppression and indulgence is railed against here, as well as Australia's unthinking commitment to foreign war efforts. Pub rock with punk's intensity but an original intelligence, '10 to 1' remains one of the greatest catalysts of Australian rock.
