Here is few of my favourites

Cold Chisel
Eskimo Joe
Hoodoo gurus
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Crowded House is a Kiwi band.



Nonetheless, even though INXS is #2 as far as Oz Rock greats go, Michael Hutchence is the greatest rock star from Australia.

Yanks seem to like AC/DC a lot, but I'm not sure why. They had some good songs but musically they're not all that great. INXS is uniquely Australian(born n bred in Oz) and their music was far more eclectic and varied.

Didn't know some of these bands are from Australia. Have always though it intesting that music somehow does away with accents, except for country of course.

They're good background music when you're working.

Also good when you're shitfaced drunk and just want to party.

A lot of Oz bands tend to sing with a bit of a southern twang(like INXS & The Church).

Dead can Dance started out as a Punk Rock group, yet they weren't signable....

They did Renascence type music.... and they gotten signed as the group they are well known as.
