Powderfinger

Post by I AM ME »

ok, i know i've been starting a lot of threads but i've been trying to find some new bands.

I have some of there stuff, and i like it, i bought Vulture Street and thought it was pretty good but not as good as i thought it would be. Does anyone else know Powderfinger? Which album would you consider best, and which would you consider the best "Rock" wise?

What I've heard on the radio is all right but I've never really liked them enough to buy an album. I can ask my sister for you tomorrow though, she has a couple of their albums.

Yeah, they've been around for a while... they have five full length albums and a couple of EPs. Odyssey Number 5 is the highest selling album (that's the one with My Happiness). From what I've heard Double Allergic (their second album) is supposed to be pretty good.
