We've got a pretty cool national station here in Australia. Triple J
is the alternative youth station playing lots of silverchair, Marilyn
Manson, Foo Fighters etc, but they are the only station to give new
stuff a try.
But, they suffer from that age-old radio problem -
massive rotation of the songs they like - which means you hear the
same old stuff over and over, and it's not long before you are sick
to death of what you're hearing.
Their current favourite is 'Sexy Boy' by Air. Man, am I sick of
*that* song!
But, overall it's a damn fine station to have - especially some of
the night-time shows like 'Groove Train' and Mix Up, which is 3 hours
of local and visiting DJs playing wjat they want to play.
