Does /mu/ like Australian music?
>>60362484
Not these hacks. The Avalanches, Nick Cave, and Tame Impala are fine.
>>60362484
I do, I'm Australian myself, but outside of Nick Cave, Tame Impala and Courtney Barnett, I really don't know how to find Australian artists and bands.
>>60362564
>>60362574
Whoops, forgot the Avalanches.
I like Men at Work
>>60362607

Literally the only song I know from Austrailia. Gotta say, it is a great song though.
Tame Impala, Pond, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are all god tier
I don't know any else though

pic related is like my 2013 aoty senpai. and the new songs kinda cool. not a big fan of their whole "le we don't give a fuck" message, it's kinda just as cringy as the things they claim to not give a fuck about.
>>60365218
>we only have ac/dc nick cave and iggy
>the rest is all shit
kys
>>60368280
they definitely do care, I think the lyrics are meant to be a sort of mocking interpretation of things which make people stereotypically "australian"
dirty three are my shit tbqh
INXS, Men at Work, AC/DC (yes, they are very good at what they do), Nick Cave, Foetus, Crowded House.
And Stuart Dempster, although American, makes interesting music using the didjeridu.
>>60363521
If you don't think Innerspeaker is decent psyche rock then you're a retard.

Hungry Ghosts will be your shit then
https://hungry-ghosts.bandcamp.com/
>>60368462
yeah this is pretty cool, I can see the comparison
it's sorely missing that violin lead though
anyone digging on shit like DZ, dune rats, dma's, or like cosmic psychos or violent soho? like come on u fucking hipsters.
>>60368545
They're far more minimalist and incorporate influences of gypsy folk music. Listen to the entirety of Alone, Alone, that's their best album imo.
I'm seeing Dirty Three in a few months, have you seen them live?

hello brady
Why does it have to be "Australian music"? why can't it just be music that happens to be from Australia.
Even As We Speak is a fantastic jangle pop band who've spent some time on Sarah Records in the UK.

So many great Australian bands from the last few years, you do have to dig to find them though.

Yep, have made some of the best Australian electronic albums ever.
>>60370412
They have been a favourite band of mine for years
The Worry was only ok though

Back to Triple J with you.
>>60362484
There's heaps of great music to come out of Australia, though a lot of people here have pretty shit taste, and a lot of acts that get well known garbage triple j-core. Australia had a great garage punk scene in the 70s and 80s, some fantastic prog rock and psych rock bands in the 60s and 70s, and heaps of really good metal bands now
The Go-Betweens are my single favourite Australian band.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHUpnz-rbik

Dune Rats are fucking trash.
DZ Deathrays are chill bros though, met one of the guys at Crowabr in Brisbane once, he was pretty nice.

The majority of good Australianmusic came from the last decade. Only because in the last 15 years most good live venues got sold up to build inner city dwellings for rich hipster arseholes who want to be close to the scene. Which killed it. So Aussie music is now probbably represented by the past or bandcamp..etc. Cheers Cunts!

Thank you, Scrubs.
It annoys me when people say Australian music is no good when they've only heard what people post about on the internet.
~1985-1990 was a golden era in Australian music that seems completely lost to the internet canon or whatever
Sad that no one in Australia even knows about this shit because everyone relies on the internet now. Best stuff I've found is from talking to people who were around back then in record stores

Any prog music associated with australia is normally bretty gud. Ne Obliviscaris are great. Most Australian rap is good with the laid back, catchy not taking anything serious tone with the great production.
Australian rock is normally pretty simple but Australian pub rock is the GOAT anthem/karoke choices.
Aussie Surf Rock trumps all else

I'm not saying there isn't good metal music in Australia, but literally an unironically the most popular metal bands from Australia right now are Parkway Drive, Amity Affliction and garbage like that.
Destroyer 666 is also a pretty GOAT Australian band. Phoenix Rising is one of my favourite albums.

I can't stand Amity, they're so watered down.

They're shit, but not as shit as the rest of their genre. The best metalcore comes from Australia but metalcore is mostly garbage.

The underground hardcore scene is thriving atm, lots of chaotic and unusual stuff being made.
>>60372129
There has pretty much always been a underground thriving hardcore scene in Australia since the genres inception.
>>60372146
I think you'll find that underground music in Australia in general has always been alive and active. The problem is that no one takes time to seek them out.
