Leonardo's Bride and Darren Hayes, also Powder Finger are good to listen to... Don't like those Rouge Traders though... She can't sing for shit. Wouldn't pay a doller for her album, wouldn't even download it for free.

ACDC with bon scott would by my favourite (brian johnson's work is pretty solid as well)
Cold Chisel with Jimmy Barnes would be up there too, and of course INXS always makes the list :)

there are tonnes of underground metal bands around here that are pretty amazing too.

Surprised no one's mentioned The Hot Lies yet.

Gyro as everyone's listed are awesome...and The Howling Bells could be the next big thing.

My tastes slide way towards british music, but the occasional Aus act stands out. I also loved The Dissociatives album.
