Australian bands I wish to share with Japan and the world.

Hello world, I just wanted to share a few of my favorite Australian bands which I think deserve a bit of international attention. I hope you enjoy some of my picks. The picture to the left depicts what Australian music (Kangaroo) will do to your ears (woman & Camera).

First off is a band which I have listened to since I was in High school, when I sadly used to skateboard as a sport. This is what used to be pumping in my earphones while getting air and falling to gain some more bruises and scars. GRINSPOON!

Grinspoon - Lost control

The next band which I believe deserves mentioning was formed from an older Aussie Rock band named Karnivool which is also very much worth checking out. However the band which I want to mention is called Birds of Tokyo. The music has a different kind of feel to other rock bands so check it out, you may like it!

Birds of Tokyo - Plans

Karnivool - Themata

An old school favorite of mine has been disbanded quite a while ago but I still enjoy listening to a few tracks of Superheist. The music always reminds me of being at the beach as I always listened to this on my holidays to the sunny Gold Coast. They are basically comparable to nu Metal but has more of an Australian twist. Used to listen to this band the most out of all of these bands.

Superheist - Bullet

Here is a band from my city of Brisbane, they actually used to have a studio in the same building that my granddad was running his business out of. They are kind of funky but an old school favorite of Brisbanites - Regurgitator.

Regurgitator - The song formally known as

Lastly I just wanted to mention a band which has taken off quite well overseas. No it isn't Jet... their name is Wolfmother. The band members changed about a year or so ago, and it turns out one of my university friends brothers then joined the band. Amazing.

Wolfmother - Joker and the Theif

Got other Aussie music you would like to share, give me a comment. Thanks!
