28 DAYS, Victorias best band?

[PWNED]

This thread is dedicated to 28 DAYS, A fairly popular band in Australia which appears at nearly every Big Day out and just lately Coke Live 'n Local. They are a great band from St Kilda who have written such hits like Sucker, Rip It Up, Whats the Deal? and Take me away who are all very good. They have an excellent sense of humour which is shown in their songs and on their DVD titled When Dickheads snap.


Below are the lyrics from What's the Deal? Have a read of it and say what you think of it and if possible what other victorian bands you think are good.

The beer is ice cold
And it's sold
From a supermarket that keeps their prices down
This day is not pretentious or fake
Home town Sunday shining
And it takes a day like this to make me understand
That you can't beat the sweet feeling of sand
Between your toes, this is how it goes
Down with a beer in my hand

My best friend's to the left
She's closest to the esky
She passes me a Coopers
And she glistens in the sun
Baby made a good call to take me from the fish bowl
Looks all cool on videos but sometimes it's no fun

(well that was so good)
It's all very good at first
All the beer and cocaine
I'm on the beach in the first verse
With my kid and no fame
And it just feels so very real to me
So I'm asking myself
Baby, what's the deal?

I spent two years with the summer in my rear view
Now I'm looking through my shades
I've finally got a clear view
Of blue skies and wet sand
All of this, how could you
Want any more than this
Tell me how can this be true?

(well that was so good)
It's all very good at first
All the beer and cocaine
I'm on the beach in the first verse
With my kid and no fame
And it just feels so very real to me
So I'm asking myself
Baby, what's the deal?

Askin' myself what's the deal
What's the deal

And it's like so hot
And I'm not no matter what you say
Ain't gonna stray from this wicked spot
I've frozen in Germany
And burnt up in Spain
Man, Amsterdam nearly fried my brain

So on the plane I had a day to think
About being here and sipping this drink
So I'm playing with my kid
Hanging with my girl
Watching my belly turn pink

(well that was so good)
It's all very good at first
All the beer and cocaine
I'm on the beach in the first verse
With my kid and no fame
And it just feels so very real to me
So I'm asking myself
Baby, what's the deal?

Asking myself
What's the deal?
Asking myself
What's the deal?
I'm asking
What's the deal? yeah
I'm asking myself
What's the deal?

I wouldn't say they were the greatest band from Victoria but they are a great band. Staeling Chairs was the first album I bought of theirs and I loved it. I'm waiting for their next CD and don' know if there is a release date yet. I can't find the single anywhere which i know is out.
