Weird Crap In Australia

There are few Australian bands that are internationally famous, and only one that is so famous as to end up in a book I love reading (Ready Player One, Ernest Cline) highlighting the song everyone knows - though their catalogue has a lot of bangin' hits. For more than 40 years, Midnight Oil has been screaming about climate change and other political movements. Join Holly and Matthew as they look at Midnight Oil, Peter Garrett, and the journey both have taken since 1976."As we sing the songs night after night, there are lines that pop out which were written 35, 40, maybe even longer, which have more relevance now than when they were written. Even though we don't have any new material that we're playing at the moment, it's interesting how applicable a lot of the old songs are to what's happening in 2017." ~ Rob Hirst
