INXS were shite.
No one’s mentioned the Saints and their iconic track Stranded.
There’s plenty of good music coming out of Australia - Hilltop Hoods, Paul Kelly (is a fucking genius Kev), Tame Impala, Sarah Blasko, Geoffrey Gurrimul, Augie March, Bob Evans, Xaviar Rudd, The Rubens. There’s a lot of shit as well, you just have to look for the good stuff like anywhere. Give it up with the uninformed blanket statements Kev.[/quote]
I haven’t heard of half of those people you mentioned but I am going to assume from the statement I’ve highlighted that they are shit. I think one of the other posters may have nailed it and your assimilation into Aussie society is now complete. Do you sneer at anybody who is not white and think that big sausages is haute cuisine?
INXS’s greatest contribution to the world was their front man turning the delightful Kylie into a slut for a brief period of time. And being a deviant, but a not very good one. But credit to him for wiping “sir” Bob’s eye all the same.
And they still beat the shite out of anything your colony has produced.
Here you go, mate. This is Australian music at It’s best, I think they are called The Spear Chuckers - or this might the other lot The Boomerangs.
INXS were not shite. :mad:
Surprised to see no mention of the David Gray / White Ladder scene in late 1990s Ireland. Wild times.
I have no doubt that Fran has David Gray and Paddy Casey in his collection
No they were not, but not as good as made out either.

Homer knew the score
:rolleyes: INXS were a band-Michael Hutchence was their lead singer-you know the distinction between the two yeah?
What’s so difficult of you to understand, its simple really. The lead singers sexual deviancy was their greatest achievement when set against the rest of their output.
Or indeed the frames/Damien rice movement.
Dont leave out Paddy Casey. The little prick.
I saw that little fucker live twice, and the thrills too. Seemed every concert I went to for a period of to or three years those shites were playing support!
The fuckin Thrills, where did those jumped up whiny cunts go to?
Lads, Australia gave us Nick Cave, one of the finest singer songwriters that ever lived. We can’t forget that.
As bad as the Thrills were, they were better than fucking Snow Patrol any day.
