Descrizione:
A group for fans of the Australian underground rock sound of the '70s and '80s....

"Two decades before the White Stripes and the Hives made 'garage-rock' the new buzz-word, numerous Australian bands were cranking out a raw, high-energy music which had all the elements that the kids are hot for today. Inspired by two legendary punk-era bands, The Saints and Radio Birdman, Australia exploded in the late '70s with literally scores of bands who melded the wild sounds of classic '60s garage-rock and the Detroit rock action of the Stooges and the MC5 into a raw and powerful sound that was unlike anything else in the world." - Shock Records' compilation "Do the Pop"

    Can I add "Depression" to that list of awesome Oz punk bands. And what about Chris Wilson and all his incarnations? My fave, even though it does have roots in blues, would be "Crown of Thorns".

    Hey guys, if you feel like it, please join my group for Ed Kuepper. The guy can't get enough love for crafting three classic Saints albums (not to mention the really adventurous Laughing Clowns material).
