Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 2004, 'Original Sin – The Collection' came during a period of reflection for INXS, decades after their rise to fame with 'Kick' (1987). This compilation featured tracks from their earlier works, serving as a reminder of their influence on the alternative rock and dance-rock genres. It marked a commercial revival effort following the death of lead singer Michael Hutchence in 1997.
