Following up from their excellent deep-dive list The History of Australian Punk in 30 Tracks, which we ran through last year, junkee.com has posted The History Of Australian Indie Rock In 30 Essential Tracks. The list starts from 1988 but i'm going to pick up from 2005 which is around the time I started travelling and wasn't paying as much attention to oz music as I should have. You'll hear classics from The Drones, Augie March and Architecture In Helsinki, and then new Australian music including 'Streets of Florence', a track Andy White and collaborators recorded in March and April swapping files from lockdown in Italy and Melbourne. Then it's three track from the surprise LP from Apollo Ghosts titled Local Delivery Only, which is a selection of covers of the Ghosts's favourite Vancouver artists and bands.
