What are some good contemporary Australian bands?

there are none. auscuckalia is just a barren, talentless wasteland. joeys can make better music than the citizens.

Impetuous Ritual

Not two words could better describe the dismal state of music in Australia.

Shady Nasty seem promising, their new ep is good

>>73624534

They're a pretty solid band. You need to calm down dude.

>>73624470
Ausmuteants
Destrends
Total Control

Also, tomorrow night, Friday, or Saturday, get out there and support your local scene. Maybe you'll find some bands you like.

>>73624588
I'm calm as can be. Australia is still really awful when it comes to music.

Are there any bands here that are actually 10/10? No run of the mill, good enough, yeah it's good because it's 'fun' shit, just an absolutely amazing band that outshine others across the world, that stand out from the sea.
Is there one, just one?

>>73624612
no

RATTLE
RATTLE
RATTLE

>>73624600
Is that on a per capita basis?

TISM is the only australian band that was ever worthwhile

>>73624612
Nick Cave at his best, maybe.

>>73624470
go listen to triple j.

>>73624596
I'm not Australian, I'm just curious because I don't know much about their music scene. Thanks for the recs though!

The Drones.
Their last album especially was quite good.

>>73624625
that's on a "any fucking way imaginable" basis

Basically any psychedelic band from Australia is better than any of the tryhard psych shit from burgerland

check out tame impala (obvs) king gizzard and the lizard wizard, the murlocs, moses gunn collective, sunbeam sound machine, psychedelic porn crumpets, the babe rainbow,

>>73624701
Darling, I'd love to see your data.

>>73624612
You Am I's Hi Fi Way
Transcendence into the Peripheral by Disembowelment
Bad Blood by Gerling
Sambanova by PNAU
And plenty more, Australia only has like 25 million people man. Dont get upset you don't get as many bands as the fartnited states of dictating and regulating mainstream culture

>>73624752
Oh yeah The Church are good too, especially Seance

Sticky Fingers

>>73624660
these joints were good
i also liked that royal headache band

>>73624891
Prove it

I think there was this band from newcastle that plays Mac Demarco like 'chill' indie-pop (please forgive me) but they sound pretty good, does anyone know their bandcamp?

>>73624952
yeah it's probably every band from newcastle

>>73624470
Tame Impala

>>73624612
The Smith Street Band, but everyone will say no because they have some degree of popularity.

>>73624612
Plini is absolutely fantastic, not 10/10, but definitely one fo the best australian musicians recently

>>73624965
lol true, but I found out they were called Vacations

>>73624612

Destrends fucking suck. Elaborate stage personalities that compensate for the ability to write a decent song. They're just lucky that one of the members dads played in Cosmic Psychos.

Also one of them hit on my friend at a show and asked him to fuck his ass. Pretty fucking lame all round desu

The drones is the best god damn band of this decade

Im glad Earth. Water. Sun. still gets memed. One of the finest metal eps anywhere. Even though it's 9 minutes only it feels like each track bleeds into the next to the point where it feels twice it's length.
