Editor's note

Eskimo Joe's steady three-piece rock from Perth

An Australian trio known for melodic hooks and direct lyrics since their 2004 breakthrough.

For their sound, try 'Black Fingernails, Red Wine' or 'A Song Is A City'. They're both good examples of how the band works.

They've been a reliable presence in Australian alternative rock for two decades, with songs that stick because they don't overcomplicate things. 'Black Fingernails, Red Wine' and 'Beating Like A Drum' became radio staples in 2006. Even a track like 'A Song Is A City' shows their straightforward approach to melody and lyrics.

They formed in Perth as a trio and broke through with 'Thunderclap' in 2004. After some mixed reception to their second album, they settled into a more consistent guitar-based sound with 'Black Fingernails, Red Wine' in 2006. The same three members have stayed together the whole time.
