I voted for about 5 Wavves tracks in the latest top 100 and none of them got in. Popular taste just isn't with catchy rock.

Think pop rock was such a big thing with young bands here ~10 years ago it's suffered from a bit of overkill. The mainstream electronica lovefest is getting absolutely ridiculous though and I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say mainstream radio (musically) is the worst it's ever been.

I know it's typical for each generation to say the next's take in culture is terrible but, ****, the last few years of mainstream music is peak bland shit. I love hip hop but even in the supposed renaissance the best stuff is underground and the charts are filled with RnB bland shite.

Tell you what, Sticky Fingers and the copycats... I don't mind them.

Had more to my initial post which i accidentally deleted that mentioned everything you did which is funny. Taking a quick look at the top 50 here in Aus and if I had to hazard a guess I'd say 95% (not even exaggerating) is just overproduced generic electronica, which is insane. Weird prerogative that producers kick started around the turn of the decade to have mostly women (conveniently attractive, too) singing over the top of every bland, electronically-manufactured beat.
And yeah gotta dig deep beneath the mounds of shit to find the gems these days. Sticky Fingers, Gang of Youths, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard carrying the torch for me.
What's the bet our old mate Rolf Harris is under this. It's just very creepy...

This happened to me like 5 years ago with Papa vs Pretty who in my eyes were basically the perfect JJJ band, being an Australian indy rock band who got a lot of play on JJJ all year. Their highest song came in at something like number 175 while bland electronica dominated the countdown and now dominates the station.
The people that liked this sort of music always existed, they just listened to Nova or FreshFM or whatever. JJJ allowed a bit of crossover and these people starting to vote in the hottest 100 to completely change the tone of the radio station over about a decade.

Funny enough though, when JJJ do an all time countdown, you can bet the top of the list will be saturated with grunge, punk, alt, and rock music from 20 years ago. Guitar heavy music.
Yet modern bands in those styles don't even get a look in in the yearly countdown. Who are these people?

Go full PB in private = aces. You're welcome.
Nah, this was right at the start, as Frogstomp was being released. Had just been unearther by Triple J. NI came after they found success. Drummer was Ben Gillies or something like that from memory.

Has any three piece band had two members as invisible as the other two blokes from Silverchair?
May as well have been session musos.

That sounds like quite the task. Wouldn't it be more practical after he pulls his finger out?
