1. AC/DC - and it ain't even close

2. INXS

3. Midnight Oil

4. Jet

5. Silverchair???

6. The frickin' Bee Gees???

I mean, don't get me wrong 1-4 is plenty, but that's it? The frickin' Bee Gees are too 10?


Updated:

Men at Work - forgot about them

Wolfmother - Pretty good band


I'm checking out the rest.

I actually think Silverchair had some serious potential in the U.S. but after "frog stomp", they never had much commercial success here. They're still huge in Australia though.

IMO they are top 3. They are basically typecast as a high pitched disco band, but they were much more than that.
