Hoodoo Gurus’ Mars Needs Guitars is the sound of open windows, sticky floors, and mates yelling the chorus back at you. Released in 1985, this album turned the Gurus from pub heroes into Aussie legends. Jangly surf guitar, sharp pop hooks, and a good bit of weird — the mix that made them stand out then still works now.
This pressing is your chance to get that garage rock magic on the turntable again. For old fans, it’s every bit as loose and fun as you remember. For new ears, Mars Needs Guitars is a front row seat to how good guitar pop can feel when it doesn’t take itself too seriously.
Never owned it? Now’s the time. Drop the needle, grab a beer, and see why this one never really left Aussie airwaves.
