Good News From the Next World

Simple Minds

A massive, guitar-forward return to stadium-sized rock. Shimmering textures meet heavy 90s production for an experience that feels like a sunrise over a canyon.

January 30, 1995 · Virgin

A relentless, widescreen surge of optimism and sonic power.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive, guitar-heavy opening riff of She's a River that signaled a harder edge than their previous work.
The swirling, psychedelic-tinged guitar textures that bridge the verses in 7 Deadly Sins.
The massive, communal vocal hook in Great Leap Forward that feels designed for a crowd of fifty thousand.
