MODERATORS
I had no idea this was Australian! Now you've mentioned it, though, there's a noticeable lack of hard 'r' in some lines (for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-mRcnF5tSc).
Agreed - and thanks for making your list of things it omitted - but the list was compiled by a poll of Double J staff, so it was always going to be biased towards deep-cuts, and it's a good thing to bring lesser-known and forgotten music to attention (so long as people don't take the list to be authoritative).
I'm all about showcasing local talent. I love most of the bands in the list. But don't call it the "best Australian songs of the 90s" if you're going to leave out so many of the best songs of the 90s.
I loved Ratcat, but I'd have selected That ain't bad. Frente's Accidentally Kelly Street and Custard with Funky again to really introduce a new generation to their music (because Dave's voice is really recognisable to the kids in this track).
Yeah, the title is intentional click-bait/engagement-bait
