Ammonia - Mint 400

[The Zebra]

Just dusted this off for the first time in years.

Was a cracker of an Aussie album when it was released about ten years ago. I used to love it. Still sounds great.

Probably got downplayed a bit because the main single "Drugs" can sound a bit try hard - but it is way down the order of good songs on the album.

I don't think they released another one. May have reformed under another name - but I never got any of their stuff.

Anyone else own it?

Been years since I heard their stuff, still tops though.

I dust this off from time to time along with Pollyanna's Longplayer - like 'em both

Ammonia and Pollyanna were both great bands.

What was Ammonia's follow up album? 11th Avenue? I think thats the one...

They wereone of the first gigs i ever went too....

John Reed Club, Ammonia and Pollyanna @ The Prince of Wales from memory...

Pollyanna were very under-rated imho.

Weren't Ammonia briefly tipped to be the "next silverchair" at one stage?

Weren't Ammonia briefly tipped to be the "next silverchair" at one stage?

Ammonia toured with silverchair I think, and they both had hits in the states at the same time.

Ken Carter is a cracker of a song. (did anyone every see the documentary it was based on about the stunt driver Ken Carter - think it was called the devil at your heels - hilarious)
