Top ten bands from Australia

Yeeeeah silverchair!!!

The list is pretty accurate.

Maybe Eskimo Joe, instead of The Vines
And I'd probably stick Silverchair in at first.

But otherwise, the list is good.
Australia represent! Heh.

i'm gonna kill the person who said the voronicas thats just about the worst thing you can put what about The Grates!??!Kisschasy are great too!

yeah, What about the Grates? they're more awesome than the Veronicas. And also, what about the Howling Bells? Or Little Birdy? But overall most of them are right. :D

I have to say, all of those except Silverchair & The Living End SUCK. Aussie bands are pretty shitty actually. PWD are ok, but what about the late IKTPQ? They were better than PWD. This is pretty pop but...Kid Courageous were pretty good if you like that sorta sound...

kisschasy is the best aussie band!!!

ahh the vines are shit live & apparently assholes. Wolf mother are shit live.
a band is not a band if they cannot perform live.
sick puppies
the angels
faker
the cops
grinspoon
end of fashion
cog
expatriate
dappled cities fly
cut copy
geez. take your pick.
also, anything but the veronicas.
AC/DC = fuck yes.

Id say that the John Butler Trio are up there.. the Hard-Ons aswell. You need a "pub rock" category. The Veronicas are kind of embarrassing .>

Gyroscope should be somewhere in there as well, pretty awesome live as well

The Grates are amazing.
Their live shows are amazing.


This list seriously sucks.

HELL YES!!! Thank you so much for putting my suggestion up!!!
i agree about the veronicas...total embarrassment to australia!!
& jesm...the vines arent assholes...Craig Nicholls sometimes seems that way because he has Asperger's Syndrome which means he finds it hard to interact with people.

Craig Nicholls is one of the nicest people I have seriously ever met and I'm not saying that just to put you down or go against you; but his 'disease' does effect the way he acts.

Get The Living End off that list aswell as The Veronicas and Wolfmother!! They are shit! Put Cog on there, Grinspoon, Karnivool, The Butterfly Effect, The John Butler Trio, Gyroscope and The Sick Puppies. Thats a better list mate...! =D

Short Stack! Operator Please! there should be some newer bands in there but I

What about Something For Kate, Killing Heidi, Jebediah, Augie March and Motor Ace? Some less famous like City Riots from Adelaide that had a national tour with TAI and Cobra Starship, they were awesome all 3 of them.

Oops did forget the Dallas Crane too and some more..

mmm parkway drive, theyre awesome

ohh i completely forgot about killing heidi and jebadiah! they were so good back in the day =]

okay, mine would be

1. Evermore (although i think they're new zealand)
2. Parkway Drive
3. The Presets- if you could call them a band
4. The Living End
5. Silverchair (not so much their new stuff though, but the old stuff is classic)
6. Killing Heidi
7. Kisschasy
8. Jebadiah
9. end of fashion
10. I killed the prom queen



ps- the grates are shit.
their lyrics are some of the worst i have ever heard in my life

"you can't stop the sun,
from come, come, coming out,
cos i've got my hairdryer,
and i'm gonna blow all the grey clouds away"

and lets not forget "19-20-20 19-20-20" times a million

purrrrr-leaseee!

and they are not good live either- patience jumping around like a moron until she cant breathe or sing properly isnt cool. not cool at all, its laaame
