I had no idea who those three bands/groups were until reading your post, so I went and watched a bunch of clips on YouTube of each, and they’re all quite terrible and forgettable.Anyone who thinks there's no good music on Triple J doesn't listen to Triple J. Yeah, there's some s**t on it but that's because they are trying to appeal to multiple genres at once (I hate hip hop, but can turn it down when it comes on). There's also a lot of mainstream music fans that come in around Hottest 100 time and push some of the edgier stuff out.
But three of the albums nominated for the J Awards were by Gang of Youths, Gordi and A.B Original, three very different and very excellent albums.
And I'm 40.
More to the point, they sound like every other bland, uninspiring piece of s**t that Triple J have been playing for the last 10 years.
If that’s supposed to be the edgiest stuff that station is playing I’m glad I switched off all those years ago.
