How anyone can mention INXS and AC/DC in the same sentence is beyond me...

I'm tempted to get their new album, but I'm afraid to be disappointed.

Aren't the main songwriters still with the band? Plus, the new singer sounds very much like Michael on Pretty Vegas.

Back to the OP, who's comparing those two? AC/DC, INXS, Midnight Oil and Split Enz may all be Aussie rock, but they couldn't be more different.

Split Enz = Finn brothers = NZ not Oz, but you have the right idea.

AC/DC are gods of pure rock, but INXS did great soulful rock/pop. The world is a better place for the existence of both "You Shook Me All Night Long" and "Never Tear Us Apart."

I was just adding to the list of Aussie bands that made it across the pond. And trying to add a little humor.
