That’s Australia for you non-know-it-alls out there.  The Aussies are simply kicking the rest of the world’s ass when it comes to putting out great tunes.

Well, if death metal is your thing, fuck off to Norway, the rest of us will kick back and revel in the salacious sounds from Down Under.

Check these if you haven’t heard them already:

• Hearts On Fire – Cut Copy
• Talk Like That – The Presets
• Shadows – Midnight Juggernauts
• Changes – Van She
• Land Down Under – Men At Work

If you didn’t see that last one coming, I’m gonna need you to stop reading my blog.

Crap, I know – but you still wish you were there.
