Aussie Bands You Should Check Out

Creating this page to keep a list of all the bands I have featured on my Aussie Bands You Should Check Out thread on Twitter. That way, I don't have to keep scrollin through whole thread to check each time. And it would just be nice to have a list of all the Aussie bands I love and recommend - especially the lesser-known ones, as I fear people from outside Australia only know a few of our internation hits, and to me, they are not our best bands.
