DontRunMeOver

Having just been to Australia and noticed that the local music on the radio mostly sounded like either U2 or Avril Lavigne cover bands and that Nickelback were a clear favourite band... I have the distinct impression that Australian music AND Australian musical taste are utter, utter shite.

Yes, I know AC/DC are Australian but please somebody tell me, are there any good Australian bands or artist (and don't say ****ing Kylie) around at the moment or is the country really the cultural black hole it seems to be?

Comments from the New Zealand posse will be greatly appreciated too
