Spiderbait are very fun live, got to see them do a reuinion gig with Superjesus at our local Friday night spot a couple of years ago, got a real good sweat on in the best way
Jet, Wolfmother, Powderfinger probably all Bailey worthy recommendations for the more upbeat rock. Silverchair are great, but more garage grunge angsty. TISM are fun as hell, but also too weird to be the first band I recommend to anyone haha
There are times I wish somebody could recomed me metal bands but I've listened to the genre so long it's like I know the most underground bands it sucks
