Thursday October 4th 2001 MuchMusic (Canada) had special on INXS. The remaining members advised the band will continue, indicating that in essence, the music is the same. Please note that I take exception to this, and the sonic quality was established with the characteritics of Michael Hutchence. The remaining members ought to consider changing their band name, so we do not confuse this “trademark” with their new sound, which of course is not a collective effort of the founding members. Without any disrespect, the remaining members of the band are not so musically inclined, or more specific - they are not so individually distinct, to provide any sense of similarity with the era with Michael, and the new era they embark. Michael was the voice and sound of INXS, and without him, there is no future of that band. It appears to be a business decision to continue with their recognized “brand name” than for the remaining musicians to make their own sound and contribution.
