Mint 400 (1995) - Ammonia

Major label debut from Perth band Ammonia. Excellent post-grunge with some proto-emo moments. Sometimes comes across as a much more bearable Oasis.

I had a bit of a dive through the Internet archives but not a lot comes up in the zine circles. Hopefully I'll add a little more research as I come across it.

Peculiar World (1998) - Litany

The first upload of 2018, from a track encountered on the Rock n Roll High School Vol. 4 comp previously uploaded, is this offering.

Much of the history surrounding this group might be garnered from the aforementioned RnRHS page. Litany was a band featuring RnRHS founder Stephanie Bourke on drums and vocals. They bridged a range of styles, sometimes playing straight garage indie followed by something bordering on power metal. This breadth is quite refreshing and the album is very listenable.
