Free Music Notes for Primitive Man
Free Music Review: One of the defining Australian albums of the 80s
Hit: 4 Stars
Ok, I am reviewing 2 of the same thing here, I have the UK Love in Motion which as I recall did not have Break These Chains on it, and did have Love in Motion (which I heard on the radio the other day, magic!) and the Australian Primitive Man tape which did not have Love in Motion on it (which is a shame because its a great track).
PM features real signature tracks, everyone knows "Hey Little Girl" because you still here it now, and it features on every 80's compilation, brilliant rock ballad "Street Caf?" which had an amazing video, and Australian anthem "Great Southern Land" which is one of the (forgive me Australians) 3 Oz rock "National Anthems" along with Men at Works "Down Under" and Gangajangs "This is Australia". There are plenty of other great tracks on this album which has a foot in 2 camps, the new-wave synth camp of Uniform and the soft-rock Street Caf? camp. Which sounds a bit odd, but the mix of styles really works, thanks to the musicianship of Iva Davies, who really was the driving force behind the album(Iva the Engine) writing, singing, playing most of the instruments and producing. You always get good value out of Australian bands because of the way that the music scene worked there then, with bands gaining their reputation by touring first, which meant you got good live performances and a hard work ethic, which comes across in Icehouse's albums. The way that their sound evolved across 7 or so albums really is a musical journey and one well worth taking with them.
