Overwhelmingly worthy, imo.

I totally agree. Their stuff from the early 80s is my favorite(Don't Change, Kiss The Dirt, The One Thing, etc), but they were consistently solid. For all of their hits, they somehow still seem very underrated.

They're seen by some as sellouts by trying to sound like U2 with kick.

But who fricking cares hof is just a grift.

Anything that calls the likes of Jay-Z a member is nothing to aspire to.

INXS is great and their songs are still everywhere. That's what matters.

INXS are awesome. One of my favorite bands from that era.

Put out FIVE masterpieces. Their first album was decent.

They need in.

Such a great band.
I was 15 years old in 1988-89. We went to see Guns and Roses open for them, supporting their debut album Appetite for Destruction. Barely even knew who INXS was.
GNR sucked. Horrible show. INXS came out and blew me away. I love it when that happens

The lead singer hung around too long.

They let anyone in so why not. I think they are a classic very good band that doesn't meet the standard of HOF but the HOF doesn't give a rats arse.
