Midnight Oil- Redneck Wonderland

Midnight Oil - Redneck Wonderland LP Vinyl Record

Redneck Wonderland is the tenth studio album by Midnight Oil that was released in July 1998 under the Columbia Records label, which peaked at No.7 on the ARIA Albums Chart. The title of the album was inspired by a wall graffiti, a picture of which can be seen in the promotional Oil Rag Vol. VI issued along with album release. The album was certified Gold in Australia in 2014. The album's eponymous song was ranked number 93 in Triple M's "Ozzest 100", the 'most Australian' songs of all time. The album marked a shift to an electronic influenced hard rock style.

The album has been noted for its sound, which was a compendium of familiar late '60 rock styles, taking influence from bands such as Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and The Who. The group's environmentalist attitude seemed to fuel their seemingly angry performances, with lyrics written in response to the rise of anti-Asia politics at the time.

Pressed on Classic Black Vinyl.
