    No love for Hoodoo Gurus? One of my fav's back in the late 80's early 90's.
    Such a great band, a new album out not that long ago. I saw them earlier this year at a festival. They were awesome! And the festival crowd lapped up every minute. Hit laden set with one or two new tracks. Warm sunny day. Plenty of drinks. Aussie gold!

    This one has been running through my head a lot recently.

    Maybe it's the 10,000 miles I flew for a funeral a few weeks ago, but the opening lines "We said goodbye to a friend yesterday. The kind of man that the wind takes away" just break me every time.

    Everybody scrubbed up so clean
    I guess funerals will do that
    The shock leaves a sheen

    If you like garage punk, check out The Chats.  For whatever reason their song “Smoko” has like 5 million views on YouTube.
    saw them open up for The Hives earlier this week. They were really good!

    There's a Brisbane band, WAAX, that I've mentioned previously, but I just can't get enough of them at the moment. They are touring in August, so check them out if you're into it. Here's there last 2 releases -
