List of Aussie bands

As I’m not able to blog about every single band I’m listening to this list is another way to promote these Australian bands. Although it is a list of Australian bands, I’ve shifted the attention from the more popular Australian bands and  focused on the under appreciated.

This list may also serve as a directory as I’ll endeavour to add Myspace, Facebook, Twitter and Triple J Unearthed links. (edit: I’ve also created a twitter list – aussie bands)

Please note: As this list was originally started in 2009, so links may no longer be relevant.
