Your favourite Aussie bands......

[fat_mike]

check out After The Fall. lads from the central coast. got a debut self titled album out at the moment, great aussie rock with a little bit of emo in their. seen them plenty of time and have always rocked the joints they have played. saw them on thrusday night supporting one dollar short and 28 days and they kicked the night off perfectly. did a great version of she keeps no secrets by the angels.

apart from that i like frenzal rhomb the living end 28 days for amusement only, rasdio birdman, chisels and a shitload more aussie bands


aussie rock is top shelf

In no order

Icehouse, Alabaster Hand, Skyhooks, Finch, Black Feather, ACDC, Hush

LOL flappy @ Hush. Who were Alabaster Hand? Great name. very 70s.

Hush, well Rex, you had to be there. I confess it does show a broad tolerance. They were just....... entertaining, let us say.

Alabaster Hand were an awesome hard rock band around Sydney in the 80's and 90's. Described as Australias best unsigned band. I wish they'd reform. Maybe I'll get a poll happenning requesting they do so.[/i]

Aussie bands are always the best at BDO and Livid

Frenzal, Living End, 28 Days, John Butler

(next year we want ACDC)

If Frenzal rhomb and 28 days is the best we've got at the moment, the aussie music industry is looking very very sad... John Butler Trio seems to be the onlycurrent aussie band i like at the moment.

All is well and good in OZ rock because the Screaming Jets are currently back together for a while!!!

What no votes for INXS? Undoubtedly the best Australian band of all-time...and not because they were the best selling or most famous.

Could write great rock songs, great ballads, great pop songs and music you could dance to. Not afraid to experiment with electronic music and blend styles.

Farriss and Hutchence undoubtedly the best songwriters of the 80s and 90s.
