Condition: Second Hand Ships from: Melbourne Media: Very Good Plus (VG+) Cover: Very Good Plus (VG+) Description Release details Tracklist Sleepless is an LP by Ups And Downs from 1986 released on the Truetone Records label. About this album Sleepless is a sharp, melodic mini-album from Ups And Downs that sits neatly between alternative rock and new wave. Issued in 1986, it captured the Brisbane band refining their wiry guitar sound into something more immediate and song-focused, with a clear pop sensibility beneath the post-punk tension. The record’s compact seven-song form gives it a restless pace, while the title track and songs like The Living Kind and Heart show a band working with economy and confidence. As part of Australia’s fertile independent rock scene of the mid-1980s, Sleepless remains a concise statement of style and intent.
