Aussie Rock Royalty: Jebediah, Silverchair and More

There’s nothing quite like the sound of 90s and 00s Aussie alternative rock. It was the era of muddy Big Day Out fields, Triple J Hottest 100 countdowns blasting through summer speakers, and albums that didn’t just top charts — they defined a generation. Loud, raw and unmistakably Australian, these records still hold their own today.

Jebediah – Slightly Odway CD
A staple of late-90s Aussie rock, Slightly Odway cemented Jebediah as one of Australia’s most exciting alternative bands. Packed with punchy riffs, infectious hooks and youthful energy, this Jebediah CD delivered fan favourites like “Leaving Home” and “Harpoon.” It’s the ultimate throwback for anyone craving classic Australian indie rock on CD — the kind of album that instantly transports you back to long summers and backyard stereos turned all the way up.

Silverchair – Neon Ballroom CD
If you’re searching for a must-have Silverchair CD, Neon Ballroom is essential. Released at the height of the band’s evolution, this groundbreaking album pushed beyond grunge roots into bold orchestration and deeply personal songwriting. Featuring standout tracks like “Ana’s Song (Open Fire)” and “Miss You Love,” this Silverchair CD remains one of the most important Australian alternative rock albums of the 90s. It’s darker, more ambitious and still incredibly powerful decades later.

Something For Kate – Beautiful Sharks CD
With sharp lyricism and atmospheric production, Beautiful Sharks marked a defining moment for Something For Kate. This Something For Kate CD blends driving alt-rock with intelligent, introspective songwriting, highlighted by tracks like “Monsters” and “Feeding the Birds and Hoping for Something in Return.” For fans of thoughtful Australian alternative music on CD, Beautiful Sharks is a standout addition to any collection — a reminder of just how strong Aussie songwriting was in the early 2000s.

These aren’t just albums on CD — they’re cornerstone releases in Australian alternative rock history, and they still sound just as good spinning today.
