I just love my Aussie Music and the Aussie Music Industry.

From Slim Dusty to Hilltop Hoods, if it's Aussie I pretty much love it!

So what are your favorite Aussie bands?

And is there anything new going on that I should know about? :)
NOPE!!!

    as for other aussie music, i go for the fumes , the mess hall, dallas crane, the audreys(who youve mentioned), cog, the butterfly effect, the aforementioned nick cave and his bad seeds, the drones, the vasco era, the panics are kicking it lately, karnivool, gyroscope, the vines, the triffids, the saints, godstar.

    i get put off by alot of aussie stuff because of your fucking accent! no offence, and don't gimme any of that "fush un chups" shite :rolleyes::D

    but you do have some really good stuff too....nick cave obviously, abattoir & lyre are very very special pieces of work, the waifs are quite good, the vines, & i've been listening to angus & julia stone lately as well which isn't bad

    and that russell crowe is a class act on stage ;)



    edit: oh, and i was pleasantly surprised by augie march too, was expecting alot less from them
