Blue Sky Mining is a favourite of mine too (
Stars Of Warburton and
a River Runs Red are both killer songs).
Earth and Sun Moon and
10-1 very nearly made the list as well. You're right about the lyrics as well, and one reason
Diesel and Dust is up there is because of how they express that negativity using a deceptively pop-oriented sound. Basically,
Beds Are Burning = how you deliver a message and get loads of people to listen
