#Keating was still the prime minister, #Kennett was premier of #Victoria. The highest selling song of the year in this country was Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio. Blood Sugar Sex Magik by the Red Hot Chili Peppers had been out for four years but still held sway over the entire universe.

There was a band in #Sydney called Def FX who were winning awards and telling us in song titles and lyrics – with a metal/hiphop backbeat – about "ritual", "magik" and "psychoactives".

This was what was in the wind. It was commercial music, the #TripleJ staple of the day, and #Cranky came and went so very quickly within all of this with 2 Bugs and a song called Australia Don't Become America, otherwise known as "Straya Don Come Merica". It was influenced by the above – the sound and the fury – and in particular by Rage Against The Machine, Disposible Heroes of Hiphroprisy, Public Enemy, Pop Will Eat Itself and EMF”

Love & terror in 120 chord changes

🎶 Love is a terrorist thing
for people with a problem & a theory & a gun
who's holding hands with the hostages?
everyone everyone
When you're dying pretty, sweat, regret, you're deperate
It was like we never met
Who wants to be human?
Caught by the killer & the talk talk talk
All that noise fat little boys 🎶

Hey! It's nearly midnight on #AlternateFridayMusic 🎉

I saw them play in the new year at Woodford Folk Festival in 2022. This track was the banger of the night.

Their sets are rich in flamenco guitar, middle eastern sounds and driving trance rhythms. Hard to categorise, infectious to listen to & too irresistible to not dance too.

They will elevate your soul

If your Friday night music is looking for a bit of Australian-Indian cross over, can I suggest Glass Beams. Heard a few bits and pieces recently but had a good listen to this now and it is such a chill vibe. I also want to know where they're getting their instruments from. The bass is cool, but that guitar I must have.

I've recently had the raw & unfiltered sounds & lyrics of Philadelphia Grand Jury stuck in my head, a bunch of songs from their album “Hope Is For The Hopeless”, it's got the screeching guiters, lyrics that tell a story, and these kinda maybe american surf rock vibes. But they're an Australian band
