		With two-multi platinum albums in succession and a string of hits under their belts Australia's Powderfinger are doing just that.
		Currently onto album number four, Powderfinger continue to explore and push the boundaries of their diverse and warm sound that, since the release of their debut album in 1994, Parables For Wooden Ears has proved a favourite to music lovers.
		Powderfinger's album number three, Internationalist not only proved that the band was capable of producing 13 extremely well crafted songs but it also exceeded expectations from both fans and industry.

		The album chronicles the horror of a war that saw U.S. and allied troops fly 114,000 sorties and drop 88,000 tons of bombs on the country.
		The album movingly charts the downward spiral into war, the manipulation of news reports to the advantage of the west and the terrible consequences that ordinary Iraqi people suffered and still suffer to this day.
		This album is clearly bound to become a favorite among pirate radio stations, aiming to educate their audiences about the Gulf War, and the timing of it could not be better as we face the possibility of renewed full scale war with Iraq.

		This attitude values the human spirit against the virus – whether the virus be HIV or social malaise – and is the crux of the album, a large part of which is dedicated to her brother Philip-Dimitri, who had recently died of AIDS-related illness.
		The album closed with a chilling recital of The Lord is My Shepherd in a deathbed voice that gaps and wheezes for every breath, the reassuring words barely discernible.
		A recent album exposed the misogyny of macho music with mordant humour – the cover showed Diamanda lounging on a flash car's bonnet, knife in hand, ready, it would appear, to harvest testicles.

	New Internationalist: Nick Cave — being a musician with a passionate and shocking talent
		Several magnificent albums -- written in the teeth of a heroin addiction that brought the press swarming -- followed.
		His cast of prostitutes, murderers, sufferers, those who rage and howl with the despair of it all, were aspects of their creator: a man who was trying to grasp an emotional and spiritual truth, to find calm.
		The calm, too, is reflected in his last album, The Boatman's Call (1997), which is, in part, an intensely moving account of the collapse of his relationship with singer PJ Harvey.

		After one independent EP, they were signed to Polydor and in 1994 released their first album, Parables for Wooden Ears, which charted modestly, and began to give the band a national profile.
		Their subsequent albums, 1998's Internationalist, and 2000's Odyssey Number 5 were more successful still, both reaching #1, with Internationalist selling over 330,000 copies, most in Australia but also in the UK and Europe, and #5 "over 5 times platinum (350,000 copies) domestically.
		Both albums featured much melodic rock, with lead singer's soulful voice often compared to the band's declared inspiration, Neil Young (in fact, Powderfinger is named after one of Young's songs).

		The album opens with the American folk motifs of "Johnny Appleseed" before moving on to the churning, funky "Cool 'N' Out." The title tune combines hypnotic trip-hop keyboards, reggae guitar, and percolating percussion to celebrate the joys of international communication.
		The album closes with the epic 17-minutes-plus "Minstrel Boy," a folkish selection filled with atmospheric fiddle and acoustic guitar, nearly all instrumental.
		Throughout the album, Strummer evinces his trademark socio-political awareness in the lyrics, but he sounds much less angry than in punk's glory days.

		If you prefer slower songs, such as those on their older albums, then you might not like this album as much (although there are a few slower songs on Vulture Street).
		This album is a little different from their previous work, but it still feels familiar, which is a good thing.
		I highly recommend this album, as you can listen to it from beginning to end without skipping any undesireable tracks, a quality which is often hard to find with most albums.

	hip online: artists: powderfinger
		Indeed, 1996s Double Allergic and 1998's Internationalist - two of the most successful Australian albums of the last decade, both artistically and commercially - have been such beautiful and powerful musical statements that they've seen Powderfinger get drawn to the centre of Australian popular culture.
		If the previous Powderfinger albums were partly just a process of the band crystallising its unique sound, then you'll agree Odyssey Number Five takes the band to another level.
		More than ever, the focus this time around is totally on the songs and the eleven tracks that eventually made the final cut identified themselves from the outset.

	Powderfinger - Vulture Street Music Review
		Their previous two albums have garnered the Aussie super-group nine ARIA (Australian Record Industry Association) awards, including Album of the Year, Best Rock Album, and Record of the Year respectively for both Internationalist and Odyssey Number Five (their American debut).
		With their fifth album (second-only US release), Powderfinger (whose name is derived from the Neil Young song) emerge matured and self-assured.
		The third single, “Sunsets” is the most feel-good song on the album and sustains Vulture Street, while offering a more soulful approach to what these guys have been doing for years.

		The preceding album Internationalist is arguably even more impressive, though it's currently only available as an import if you don't share the same continent as the band.
		The album entered the charts at number one, and would remain in the Top Ten for weeks, and the Top 20 for over a year, while 'The Day You Come' received rotational airplay on Australian radio.
		Powderfinger are planing to start work on a new album in the near future, which can only be good news for their devoted fan base.

		The album well deserved this kind of attention, and I only wish it could have been exposed to the American market in the same...
		On this album the band continues to evolve further along that path - the harder sound is still there in places, but generaly this is a pretty mellow CD.
		This album "Internationalist" is the best way of getting that through to anyone.

	Rock Paper Scissors - Lo'Jo, Au Cabaret Sauvage (World Villlage) - CD Review
		The Lo'Jo troubadours are interested in the world's association with 'natural'- and are helped along to no small extent by the rough and ready sandpaper tones of vocalist Denis Pean.
		Combining French chanson permeated by rai, Mailian rhythms (the band was instrumental in founding Timbuktu's 'Festival in the Desert') and a flourish of Roma, Au Cabaret Sauvage demonstrates a clear internationalist agenda.
		But the album is best at its most frenetic: listen to the kora driven vivacity of 'Les Humains'.

		The album title refers to social division within Australia and asks people to think of the world as a global community.
		She was also acknowledged for selling 350,000 copies of the album in Australia, and more than seven million copies overseas, with an Outstanding Achievement Award.

	Internationalist
		The album well deserved this kind of attention, and I only wish it could have been exposed to the American market in the same way.
		I'd say about 3/4 of the album is 4 to 5 stars, while two or three cuts would only get a 2 or 3 from me. The songwriting and vocals are solid, but the production is lacking; especially when compared to Odessey No. 5.
		This album got a lot of radioplay and tracks like "passenger", "day you come", "lemon sunrise", "private man" are pretty good.

		That's a very modest answer, but to be voted best album in any country, and to have sales of well over 280,000, it must be good.
		The first single off the album is 'My Happiness', but the album is full of classic cuts like 'The Metre', 'These Days' and 'Like a Dog'.
		So, after four albums, "Parables for Wooden Ears", "Double Allergic", "Internationalist", and now "Odyssey Number Five", sold out tours, awards coming out of their ears, now a tour of Ireland and Britain, things just keep getting better for Powderfinger.

		Concentrating on their strengths (namely Bernard Fanning’s incredible voice) and showing no weaknesses (except maybe in their desire to put last years Hottest 100 topper ‘These Days’ on the album (though the reworking has made it a little fresher)), Powderfinger have released what will probably be the album of their career.
		After the release of the albums first single I was sceptical that this record could do, or more optimistically better for Powderfinger what ‘Internationalist' did, but as is always the case, they’ve blown me away.
		This is an album to fall in love to and an album that I’ve fallen in love with.

	Australian Rock Music Guide - Stoned Crow
		Their debut album “Slightly Odway” was made a huge commercial success by the hit singles “Leaving Home’ and “Teflon”.
		In the earlier days their sound was almost surf punk rap with hits such as “Blubber Boy” and “The Kung Foo Sing” Their latest two albums saw the “Gurge” develop a very pop oriented sound with the blissfully cheesy “Polyester girl” while still clinging to their punk roots.
		Their new album “The Internationalist” cleaned up at the 1999 ARIA’s (Australian version of Grammy’s).

		Along with some decidedly classy classic pop creations, Kylie's eighth album, Light Years (Parlophone/EMI import), includes "Kids," a duet with Robbie Williams's infamous ego, which proves her powers of infectious irony and transports her into Prince and Beck territory: "Me no bubbletious/Me smoke heavy tar/Me be grooving slowly where you are.
		Their 1998 album, Internationalist, entered the charts at number one, boosted by how the mellifluous single "The Day You Come" opens optimistic chests to the sunset and lets wise eyes nap in a moment of familiar warmth.
		The Polyester Embassy (Columbia), debut album by the tinny Melbourne duo Madison Avenue, has but one catchy phrase: the title to their American dance hit "Don't Call Me Baby," which hook gives false hope of a "new feminism" already fulfilled by the Spice Girls.

		I'm going to extend my neck just a little and say that Powderfinger are the best Australian band currently working in the rock format and their new album, Internationalist, would be in the Top 10 releases this decade.
		Where other bands seem to have to try hard to push their creativity there is an assurance and confidence within Internationalist which shows that Powderfinger have much left in the tank which fuels their energy.
		Transcendental moments, straight-ahead and crooked rock, Powderfinger's Internationalist deserved its recent run on the top of the charts and will be found in those same charts for many months to come.

		Then came the album Internationalist, the first half of which was joyous rock, and all from a bunch of Brisbane blokes.
		Anyway, this monumentally simplistic instrumental tedium of a thing is a bit of an addiction for me, as it was the only “pop” (and I use this term loosely) album I was allowed to listen to as a pre-teen (my parents feared the commercialism and corrupting influence of popular music).
		Next there’s the Kylie Minogue double album of greatest hits, hot on the heels of her last greatest hits a few years back (single disc only).

		You'd title it as a tribute to the commie insurgents in Nicaragua, you'd offer the thing for the price of a double album, and a lot of people would be baffled as hell.
		Sure, some critics would vote it album of the year (Village Voice Pazz & Jop), but others would say it was bloated and pretentious and just not what you should have done.
		But it might become one of your favorite albums, which is very different from being merely great.
