Formed in Sydney in 1977, INXS conquered the international scene with their unique mix of rock, funk, and new wave. Driven by Michael Hutchence’s magnetic voice, the band scored massive success throughout the 1980s with albums like Listen Like Thieves (1985), Kick (1987), and X (1990), confirming their status as global rock icons.
