Music from your country!

[Dwarfman]

Australia has a pretty broad range of music. Here's three completely different styles.

Who hasn't heard of Parkway? I like how they don't seem to care about having an image like most people in their scene. There's a guy on stage wearing thongs (the shoe) lmao.

Spoiler: 1977 pop punk

Spoiler: Christian praise music... this song is nostalgic

Spoiler: avant-garde metal

I guess I should include some music with distinctive Australian-ness about it because I'm posting bands with obviously foreign influences.

Spoiler: dorky bogan country music

Spoiler: digeridoo music

 

[Jezzeh]

Anybody who doesn't know this band is missing out.

Three different songs, covering a number of different musical styles. Great talent.

Spoiler: Feast your ears and enjoy.

 

[Lonan]

I'm American. There's more good music than I can shake a stick at. (Or have time to listen to)

Care to provide an example...

Maybe something that might not escape your borders otherwise... In other words, a less popular band you think is good... I did it for my country, I came up with 4! America can definitely top Canada right? Bring it on!!!

<youtube=wkalXPRkffI>
<youtube=8v_4O44sfjM>
<youtube=0mkZqMWp7Xo>That's a good start.

Daft Punk is French. I was taken aback by you're arrogance before, if you were wondering why I looked it up.

[onewheeled]

Being from the good ol' USA, I finally have another chance to spread the word about Rabbit Junk! Woo!


Thank you to whoever it was on this site that posted about this band so many months ago.

If you'll notice I edited Daft Punk out before you quoted me.

True story.

Also, I wasn't being arrogant. It's totally true that I don't have enough time to listen to all the good music just from America. Doubly so when you factor in everywhere else that has awesome music. I really wish I had more time for music.

 

[Smokej]

this thread needs some variety regarding the genres:

Spoiler

if you have the chance watch the movie "Berlin Calling" to get a feel about Berlin/German Nightlife with all its hedonism and tragedy


this guy is widely regarded as the future of Electronic Dance Music


those guys are a total force when playing live on festivals


real smooth hiphop/funk mashup

 

[Offworlder_v1legacy]

Australia actually makes some good stuff. For example:


Good band, and theres tones more where that came from.

 

[Queen Michael]

I'm at the library, and they don't have any sound at their computers. So it'd be great if y'all could just hum some ABBA.

 

[smithy_2045]

More Australian;
Children Collide - Jellylegs
Birds of Tokyo - Broken Bones/Silhouettic
The Living End - E-Boogie/Second Solution
Gyroscope - Snakeskin
Bluejuice - Vitriol
Cog - What If
Dead Letter Circus - One Step
The Getaway Plan - Where the City Meets The Sea
Karnivool - Set Fire To The Hive
Mammal - The Majority
The Vines - Get Free
The Presets - Are You The One?

I think that's enough win for now.

 

[Revolutionary]
