Although we also had Arcade Fire, Neil Young, Broken Social Scene, Rush, Caribou, Die Mannequin, Crystal Castles, Matthew Good, Cancer Bats and Deadmau5.
...now, that I think about it, it wasn't all that bad. Being a Canuck rocks!
Now I'm just fucking depressed. harkan's going to kill me for saying this but...we suck so bad compared to you guys. I mean when the best song up there ^ is by a New Zealander (that's your cue mancsoulsister ), that doesn't say much for the Australian music industry.
I agree on some parts Jhereko (Canada has better talent), but it isn't all bad. Gotye (Belgian born) is something unique for Australia and we always inherit Kiwis so that isn't new. If I had my way, Grinderman 2 would have won Album of the Year.
I gotta admit/agree though I may not like a lot of what he does, I gotta give Gotye props for at least trying to do some different stuff (which in our musical climate is revo-fucking-lutionary). And yeah totes agree that grinderman 2 shoulda won out of that lot (have you heard Moonfire? )

I actually agree with all of this.
