Cold Chisel - Circus Animals Vinyl LP

Released in March 1982, Circus Animals is Cold Chisel’s fourth album and a milestone in Australian pub rock. It entered the charts at No. 1 and stayed around for 40 weeks. Driven by raw energy and gritty storytelling, the album captures the spirit of its time, with songs rooted in working-class life. From the fierce opener “You Got Nothing I Want” to the haunting beauty of “When the War Is Over”.

Pressed in a new remastered edition, this version brings fresh clarity to the band’s evolving sound: tighter rhythms, looser structures, and that unmistakable Australian grit.With standout tracks like “Bow River” and “Forever Now,” it showcases a band pushing beyond their breakthrough East into something darker and more adventurous.
