Fronted by bald, towering singer Peter Garrett, the politically outspoken rock band certainly exuded no obvious qualities of celebrity, yet its insistent single \"Beds Are Burning,\" a rallying cry for aboriginal rights, turned ears around the world with its plaintive vocals, chiming guitars, bold horns, and driving rhythms. Admirably, the group managed to follow up that ubiquitous song with other fine tunes, most notably \"The Dead Heart,\" a brooding anthem that furthered the former number's anti-colonial stance, and the deceptively upbeat \"Dreamworld.\" While DIESEL is considerably more melodic than preceding Oil outings (see the synth-heavy \"Put Down That Weapon\"), it is no less passionate in its dedication to social and environmental issues, making it the crowning achievement of the ensemble's decades-long run.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52649179021599,"sku":"819514010029","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/186978b99dce1f67da58c2e931fb2e7f.jpg?v=1782899734","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/diesel-and-dust-2014-re-release","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
