Yeah, severed heads were the only group I could think of that could give Jo Kennedy a run for her money. But I still have to go with Starstruck. (as much as I love the Headz.)

A fine choice. I'd nominate Starfish, which to my mind is not just the greatest Australian album of the last 25 years, but a strong contender for the greatest album ever.

Anyway either of the last two or Crowded House - Together alone, which if I'm being honest probably shades it.

Love in Bright Landscapes is within the date range still, isn't it? Even though it's a compilation. And I haven't got a tape player so can't listen to my copy.

Does "Woodface" count? The two creative brains of the band were originally Kiwis, but they moved to Australia before starting it, and the other members were both Australians.

Some other contenders, if Crowded House don't count, would be AC/DC's "Back In Black" (even though they had a British singer at the time, but he has hardly ever contributed anything positive to the band anyway) or one of the two last Kylie Minogue albums. Men At Work's "Cargo" is also quite nice, and a lot better than the better-selling "Business As Usual".
However, I think, if I cannot vote for Crowded House, I'll go for "The Bee Gees 1st", which is a great underrated 60s twee pop album, and still the best thing they've ever done.
― Geir Hongro, Tuesday, 22 May 2007 22:33 (sixteen years ago) link
Hmm. Didn't see the "last 25 years" bit. That'll be Kylie Minogue and "Body Language" then (I consider that one better than "Fever")
― Geir Hongro, Tuesday, 22 May 2007 22:37 (sixteen years ago) link

I never heard that Real Life album. The two singles were great.
Savage Garden are too MOR.
