I think ACDC are the greatest ever Aussie band. The Bon Scott version, not the current incarnation.

I think Crowded House are the best to come from this region but I'm not going to claim them as Aussie.

Making it in America is not necessarily a sign of greatness. Savage Garden cracked the American market and they were shit.

I'm well in the minority, but I love Brian Johnson.

To me, AC/DC is and always will be Malcolm and Angus Young, anyway.

Meh. Cold Chisel cop a bad wrap because Khe Sahn has been utterly played into the ground, but Don Walker was a fine songwriter. Flame Trees, Bow River, Standing on the outside etc are really good songs.

Better than the middle aged housewife pap written by INXS.

:cool: Great band

Crowded House are fantastic. Haven't actuallly heard their last two albums, but their run before their first break up was awesome.

Been some good Australian punk bands as well. Frenzal of course, but The Saints, The Meanies, the Hard Ons, Radio Birdman and recent stuff like The Smith Street Band and The Bennies.

Plus almost anything Nick Cave has leant his hand to. Especially Grinderman, awesome.

Plenty of good Australian music out there.

I hate them because I think they suuuuuuck.

it's a sad state of affairs that on a day when it is announced that all commercial car manufacturing in australia will cease that when you look at the news websites, instead of seeing stories such as this which have such a far reaching impact on tens of thousands of australians and their familes, we have the following stories taking precedence over the toyota story:

- mercedes corby splits with husband
- chrissie swan has fat vs thin debate with biggest loser winner
- inside schapelle's bali hideaway
- will schappelle profit from her crime?
- brynne edelstein is out of money (funny that, given it was her husband who had all the $$$)


FFS.. i'm sick of all the media attention this frumpy criminal is getting...

So, apparently some drug mule was let out of prison today?

Struggling to find any information about this anywhere. It's like the tv and newspapers just don't care.

for once you and i think alike..

this is a rare occasion. i've contacted the Mint in canberra to have them strike a commemorative coin.

It's a f**king disgrace. Even the Prime Minister thinks so.

Chisel have some genuinely excellent songs...and some generally rubbish ones, granted.

They're an ok band, but then I see some people claiming them to be Australia's greatest ever band, and I think, "Lolwut?"

Perhaps that clouds my judgement somewhat and makes me dislike them further.

I mean, like I said, I'm not a massive INXS fan, by they were huge back in the day.
