6342. Midnight Oil - Bullroarer
 |
| From: Diesel and Dust; Year: 1987; Genre: Alternative Rock |
Felt like choosing another one from my favourite Aussie band: Midnight Oil.
This one gets its title from the ancient religious/musical device used by the indigenous peoples of Australia that makes a long-distance, very distinctive sound, which has also been used in some pop culture sources over the years. Although at the beginning of Bullroarer you hear a similar sound of it, the band used a facsimile as to not cause insult.
Anyway, this one has that amazing sound from the band at its peak, I especially adore the super clean guitars with only vibrato and reverb that sounds similar to wot you hear with surf rock; just makes the great guitar playing all the more evident and in the open so to speak.
