They reminded me somwhat of a better version of what Inxs was all about in the mid to late 80's, but nowhere near as commercial as Inxs knock on wood.However as commercial as "Wild Wild West" was I still happened to have liked that song regardless.Guess I liked the catchy chorus and the beat of the song alot.I also liked the two albums they put out in the late 80's and early 90's..The second single "Shake For The Sheik" was also another good one by them.I liked this even more.

I also thought that their music videos were quite fun as well.A little cheesy but still fun.But isn't that what the 80's was supposed to be all about? What do any of you think of The Escape Club?

I only liked one song from them, "I'll Be There". Cool ballad and great video!
