There's this cool short series that starts tonight. I know alot of you aren't from here, but I know a few on here like the Saints and there's one on the I'm Stranded album, which you can purchase on dvd too. I think it's cool series anyway.

Add Australian albums you like if this series holds no relevance to you.

Did you check out the link I provided?
There's a Triffids doco in that series.
You can purchase it.

The Saints : all Bailey-Kuepper era, especially Eternally Yours

Nothing by Kuepper solo (or with his later bands), for I don't know where to start from, plus it's said his voice is so so-so that it ruins the music a bit. Any idea about that?

The Boys Next Door : Door, Door
The Birthday Party : self titled
Nick Cave : Tender Prey, Kicking against the Pricks, Let Love In
You Am I : Hourly, Daily

Norma J · 07.28.2007, 03:21 AM

I own Butterfly Net by Ed Kuepper. I think it's a fantastic record.
It's funny how The Saints are always called a Punk band, when they became so much more than that.

Bertrand · 07.28.2007, 08:52 AM

Thanks for the tip !

Right, I can't think of many punk music using horn sections the way they did, and given those wonderful things to play (Know Your Product).

atari 2600 · 07.28.2007, 09:38 AM

three albums ea. from three (thus far) unnamed bands

AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

demonrail666 · 07.28.2007, 09:49 AM

The Go-Betweens, Liberty Belle and the Black Diamond Express

Don't know what it is about this record, but it actually sounds 'Australian'. Whatever that might mean.

Savage Clone · 07.28.2007, 10:31 AM

Anything Radio Bridman.
The Blurred Crusade by The Church
Most things by Tully

Yeah, the Go-Betweens are fantastic. I agree they have a real Australian sound.

Back In Black has some great songs on it but Bon era is the era.

As for the series, they played the first one last night which was Silverchairs Diorama. Interesting doco even if you're not a fan of the band.

Birthday Party rule all, but The Scientists or Radio Birdman are strong contenders. If rock is what we are talking about, these are the bands for me.

I've just checked it out. I'd buy that Triffids DVD, except that I'd have to pay AUS$35 (£15) for the shipping of a AUS$25 (£10) DVD, which is a bit too much.

EDIT - I've just found it on ebay for AUS$29 (£12) including shipping, which is much more reasonable. I've bookmarked that page, and I'll try to remember to come back after 11th August to ask you guys whether it's worth buying. In the meantime, what was the Silverchair one like, as a music documentary generally, rather than as a programme about Silverchair. Did it include some kind of a reasonable career overview or history, or did it concentrate totally on the one album?

sonicl · 07.30.2007, 07:07 AM

Oh, do they? I hadn't realised. Why is that?
