Dirty Three and Augie March are my favourite Australian bands... Although the Go-Betweens are starting to grow on me, figuratively.

Any decent Kiwi band may be considered as being an Aussie act.

augie march are in my opinion the best band in australia. except ive never really gotten into strange bird

the bad seeds and the dirty three i dont include because warren ellis nick cave and half the bad seeds live in paris, and mick turner lives in chicago.

Astriaal, Gospel of the Horns, Portal, Grenade, Virgin Black, Stone Wings, Chalice, Dungeon and Black Majesty > Jet

Actually, I haven't even heard a Jet song, so maybe I shouldn't be posting here :confused: *runs way*

Jet is a 60's/70's rip off band. FBI Radio had some debate it. And I think it's quite true. If I wanted to listen to their music - I'd listen to Rolling Stones, Beatles, Sex Pistols, Led Zeppelin....you get the gist of it.

I'm a big fan of "good songs played well" sort of bands: The Whitlams (Tim inspired me to go pop/rock from classical with No Aphrodisiac), Powderfinger, Bernie Hayes, Youth Group, MGF (for funny stage antics, especially), Plunderers, Sunnyboys, hunters and Collectors,..oh, this list could go on forever....better leave it there and leave others to discover good bands (apart from the IDIOTS, Jet)
