Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Revisits Australian rock band silverchair's globally successful debut album Frogstomp (1995) and asserts that the band is not an imitation of American grunge nor an emblem of Gen X angst.

Due to silverchairs grunge aesthetic, the bands success has often been attributed to its imitation of North American grunge bands and associated Generation X stereotypes. Jay Daniel Thompson demonstrates that the album has greater musical and cultural significance than that framing suggests.This book argues that Frogstomp is culturally significant not only due to its international success, but because it suggested an impact of globalization on Australian music in the late 20th century and because of its eclectic, and little-discussed, array of pop culture influences. Through an engagement with Arjun Appadurais work on global cultural flows, scholarship on Australian 1990s popular culture and grunge music and textual analyses of both the albums track list and silverchairs live performances, Frogstomp is seen in a distinctive new light.
