Having a crap on the other night contemplating who from the more recent past would be inducted into the Aria hall of fame. We all agreed on The models but who do you think would be worthy from the last decade? .P.S, if ANYONE says "The John Butler Trio" they will have they're tongue ripped out.......they're arses. OK no pressure.
For sure doggie. Still great listening even today and takes me back to trips down south whenever they come on the ipod.
You am I ,oh yeah. Gangajang were a bit odd weren't they, were huge for a while then dissapeared . What about Silverchair and even better imo the disasosiatives(sorry about the spelling)
Kim Salmon? The man Rawks.
He was part of the Beasts of bourbon but had a long history prior to them.
Has been (perhaps inacurately) quoted as the bloke who 1st used the term and created grunge (later thrown about by anyone in nth West america with bad dress sense). Bands like Mudhoney have quoted him as an influence way back.
Have worked with him a couple of times - years back - he's away with the fairies but a nice dood. Bit deaf tho.
Wether doin the animalistic Scientists/BoB thing or crooning like a lounge lizard loaded up on qualudes he's always making music he wants to not trying to flog product. He gives 200% in gigs, quietly exits the stage and has a couple of beers and slips away into the night. No BS - just good ol' rock with passion.
Punk, Rock, Blues, grunge he's done it all before it's time.
KS is the real deal and likely to be a complete unknown to the twits that hand out Arias and HoF gongs.
funky, like this forum 9 parts water 1 part sand. Might as well be kiting in swampland.
Kim Salmon rocks, would add Ed krupper to the list, but the last decade wtf?
one part talent, 9 parts subwoofer crap
there's some foggy memories there. i saw KS and the surrealists years ago.....
funny thing about a lot of the bands mentioned here is i doubt they would give a **** about the arias....
