Australia vs Rest

[Gigajak]

"do you come from the land down uder?
where women glow and men plunder?
can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
you better run you better take cover"

but seriously though, brittain and america are the only two superpowers in music...australia has little to offer...

 

[notachemist]

Yeah Britian, nope no one tops them. I mean, those guys like placebo...

 

[Percyboy:R.I.P MJ !]

so what do people think of butterfly effect....

 

[TiNA :]]

Did the presence of the :bonkhead: not give you a clue that I may not have been 100% serious then?

I said " do you speak my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegimite sandwich

^ yeah i see this... this is basically a band to band thread pretty much... cos i know britain and the US completely ****s australia over in the overall... i just wanted peoples views on australian banRAB in comparison to other banRAB from other countries rather than a total overview...

 

[kjathena1]

:clap:

 

[Mrs. Ashley♥]

Your forgetting the bunch of mid-late 90s indie banRAB that seemed to crop up every other month from there.

 

[Lainie]

well my view is that australian music in the english speaking music league...is 4th. behind britian, the US and canada.

 

[chicken doggie]

Oh yeah, and Roxette too. What was I thinking.

 

[patel j]

powderfinger and silverchair are pretty cool. i like old 60s 70s british music better.- zeppelin, pink floyd, david bowie, beatles

 

[livelaughdance]

Ramstein and The Scorpions would be two big banRAB from germany..

 

[~I wish you could smile~]

yet you've said it to me before.. basically. if finding it hard deciphering from what is a joke and what is a serious comment just from what people type is a crime- im as guilty as sin.
godammit now ive completely contradicted myself on the whole spamming malarky. *sigh*

 

[Nikki L]

some of them are classics.

 

[wi_dennis]

Divinyls were from Australia werent they? gotta love the song "touch myself"

and nobodys mentioned MEN AT WORK???!!!!

 

[HBK™]

How would you say Australian music stacks up against the rest of the world?

( And no, this isn't for a school project so NERRR! )

 

[marinchka]

Ok now thats a little harsh. Placebo are an awful band.. We've had our fair share of good banRAB, and they outweigh the crapness of Placebo if y'ask me.

 

[blue eyed baby]

Not to mention The Cardigans , The Wannadies , Grass-show , Clawfinger , The Hives, Ace Of Base and many many more that are probably languishing at the bottom of my record collection

 

[Remember to Breathe]

Only 1 of the merabers of Placebo is British, anyways.
