Is Kylie Minogue human? What went wrong with Silverchair's last album? Just how good are The Drones? What drives Eskimo Joe? Where did The Presets emerge from? How did The Veronicas break our
domestic pop hoodoo? Are you safe at a Delta Goodrem gig?
In Playlisted one of Australia's top music critics explores the issues that define our most compelling and successful bands. With no small measure of biting humour and a keen eye for critical
standards, Craig Mathieson writes about the artists who matter right now, as well as decoding classic songs and careers that have long been hamstrung by convention and stereotype. (The drum
sound on Australian Crawl's 'Reckless' anyone?)
Sharp, opinionated and sometimes controversial, Playlisted rips through the past, present and possible future of Australian music with an eclectic mix of rock stars and pop princesses, artists
and frauds.
