Smart, funny, and often controversial, this entertaining look at Australia's top bands confronts such topics as What went wrong with Silverchair? Why is Missy Higgins so well-loved? and Are Delta Goodrem concerts safe ? Written by one of Australia's leading music critics, the book is aimed at older music fans who want a hipness infusion as well as younger fans who think they know everything. Neither encyclopedic nor heavy-handed, the discussion mixes together everyone from rock stars and pop princesses to artists and frauds, and there is no boring summing up.
