Well, I usually don't participate in these sort of discussions but my second
favorite is NEW MODEL ARMY, a band that is very similar to the Oils in many
ways. Many songs are injected or deal with social and political issues. They
have been around since the early 80s and have eight fantastic albums. The
are from England and some places its hard to find their CD although decent
record shops should have at least one or two of them. If they don't then its
not much of a record store at least in Wisconsin this correlation holds
true.

I luckily stumbled across the band looking for live Midnght Oil stuff at a
record show and the dealer said if you like the Oils then you'll love NMA.
Got the show he suggested and to this day is probably still my most favorite
live recording I own. Amazing band.

my 2 cents,

OILMAN
