Spiderbait are considered Australia's rock royalty with over half a million albums sold, 5 Top 20 albums, 19 ARIA Nominations and 2 ARIA awards!
They were the first band to make it to the #1 spot on Triple J hottest 100 for their pulsating guitar anthem 'Buy Me A Pony' and their cover of 'Black Betty' scored them a number 1 single on the ARIA chart and a Top 20 single in the US.
After an 8 years recording hiatus they are back with a new self-titled album produced by François Tetaz. The album remains true to their rock heritage mixed with sweet sounds, double kick and gritty ball-busting riffs.
Wow. So I had never heard of Spiderbait until I by chance watched Underbelly... 14 years after it aired! (and coincidently an old friend got in touch with me two months later, and I visited her in Parrearra that September). Anyhoo, am hooked on Spiderbait. This is an awesome cover... more more more we want the whole vid! And more live videos, especially "Fucken Awesome", which is fricken awesome :-)
