Midnight Oil (lyric, singer, dance, punk, rock)

I searched and, alas, no thread! So here we go then...

One of my latest musical endeavours has involved getting into the classic Australian bands which emerged from the late 70s/early 80s punk scene, and while I've come across a fair few class acts, these fellas are definitely my pick of the litter. They're certainly the most musically interesting of the bunch to me and Peter Garret's a truly great singer and lyricist. The three albums I've managed to sink my teeth into are all immense as well (those being 10-1, Diesel and Dust and Blue Sky Mining).

Anyway, I'm going on a bit and not posting any videos, so here's something to satisfy your curiosity;

Blue Sky Mine

Power and the Passion

Dreamworld

Any other fans out there (I've spotted a few of you hanging around before)? Which albums do you reckon I should go for next?
