Temple Of Low Men
Crowded House
Recorded during a high-pressure period, the album favors atmospheric rock over the bright jangle of the debut. Tracks like Into Temptation demonstrate a newfound lyrical weight, focusing on the difficulties of human connection.
The production balances a melancholic edge with sharp pop hooks. It creates a sophisticated mood that captures the state of rock music in the late eighties through a lens of personal questioning and introspection.
