Ben Frost, resident in Iceland but still Australian. I also have a soft spot for Courtney Barnett, but I acknowledge that her music isn't ground-breaking or anything.
Nick Cave is one of the greatest recording artists of all time and has one of the most solid discographies ever, if you disagree you're a pleb.
I have half a chub for Hands Like Hice

I agree, there's something about them. I think it's cause they kinda realise that they're just pop rock music and they're not taking themselves too seriously.

Of course, there are many: search under "New Zealand".
5 Seconds of Summer were actually good buskers back in Newtown. I used to love seeing those boys out there.
Then they got noticed and all this bullshit happened. I can't hold it against them for jumping on their opportunities, but they were better as buskers desu.

I'd still sleep with them. Minor celebrities are a little more excited about groupies and fuccbois and there isn't as much competition, so if I put my mind to it it's a realitic dream. Plus groups like 5sos are probably all dirty and herpes-infested from all the secks.
I don't know all The Stack's music but what I've heard is bland bland blaaaand
>>66018283
I saw them live and can comfirm they're balls amazing. They're fusion jazz in disguise.
Also Nai Palm is a lovely woman, very kind and modest.

Tame Impala is hands down the best band in the world right now. They are not pretty good, they are pretty incredible. But more than just how good they are, They represent the first ripple in a massive change that we are about to go through musically as well as culturally. I think that over the course of the next 10 years we are going to see a sort of mini-renaissance similar to what we saw in the late 50s-60s post war. With pot and gay marriage soon to be legal federally its gonna be a whole new world. 2012 end of the world isn't the end of human life, its the end of one way of thinking and the start of another. Pot...cash...crop...money! As someone already said here on reddit, The united states will be the only country in the world were pot is legal federally. We are gonna have jobs again, and money to burn. Money to spend on art and music. In a sense, a need will be created for GOOD art and music. Not something that is coldy manufactured by hitmakers. Tame Impala is leading the charge! They are proving that people CAN tell the difference between real and manufactured music! Im not saying Tame Impala are the next Beatles but they are making enough waves to make change. Moral of story, Tame Impala Rocks!!!! They (kevin park) are making real beautiful music that only happens when a talented person commits a lot of time to something that they are passonate about. Tame Impala is a real life "bedroom" band, they way it is meant to be .

Australia has only made one good album, and that's the Avalanches' Since I Left You. This is expected from the "nation" that their best album is actually just a bunch of stolen samples from other music.
>>66025002
crowds get HYPE when it's performed live. both ssb concerts i've gone to has been a great environment, the 2nd with maybe a few dickheads who wil told to fuck off
>>66025072
that's just completely incorrect tho
>>66025130
Please shut the fuck up.
I know you'll just tell me to kill myself in reply to this because of your apparent hate boner for Australia, but you've missed a few albums there buddy
Transcendence Into the Peripheral -one of the greatest doom metal albums of all time
Ocean Songs- One of the best post-rock albums of all time
Pop Crimes - amazing pop album
Neotokyo - one of the best video game soundtracks ever
I could go on for ages

Also, Australian music has never been better so I'm sick of questions like 'DAE australian music a shit' being asked.
There are the legitimately good pitchfork approved acts like tame impala, the avalanches, king gizzard, and courtney.
But then we've got a shitload of lesser known but equally great artists. Royal headache, no zu, the murlocs, the harpoons (personal fave atm), eddy current suppression ring, total control, hiatus kaiyote, etc.
>>66026518
>pitchfork approved
>>66026659

The Avalanches.
The Vasco Era
Woods of Desolation
Ausshits have never had a single original thought in their noggin. It's why they find reheated past glories like Tame Impala, Courtney Barnett and Avalanches as groundbreaking. Japs should have annihilated them back in WWII
