Cold Chisel - The Last Wave of Summer

Cold Chisel are an Australian Institution.  This was their first album in 14 years, so it is understandable that anticipation was high.  By this point in any bands career, I don’t think you’re looking for works of genius.  What you’re looking for is songs that when played on tour don’t make you rush for the bar/toilet.  “This is from our new album” is one of the most feared phrases at any concert.  Having said that, this is a worthy addition to the Cold Chisel catalogue.  It is a solid album – albeit without any classic tracks on it.
