    I dont think people realise how much the presets influenced Australian music. They were one of the first electro Aussie bands and they sung with an Aussie accent. Plus they were absolutely brilliant. Such a good band

    This is INSANE!!!
    My heart! Fuck.
    All Australians have a deeply fond place for Oils. To hear this done with such respect is all of my emotions neatly wrapped up with a bow and then exploded at a perfect moment because I'm now old enough to enjoy the button push.
    That's what I can feel from these guys......they, like us, knew what the oils were talking about as kids, and now got to sing fuck yes with a killer cover that will last just as long.
    Those live synths.....holy fuck.

    In my country (Venezuela) this moment of Midnight Oil is not well known. Those who listen to rock generally know songs like "Truganini" or "Bed's are Burning". I have the album where this song appears (with original copy on cassette), and it has always been one of my favorites. I didn't know it was so successful there in Australia, but it doesn't surprise me. It has all the characteristics of a hit.

    Fuk me, that was great. You don’t hear many Oils covers. That’s because they’re so bloody unique. But the Presets have pulled it off. They gave it everything, just like the Oils did. And that bass guitar is one of the best designs I’ve ever seen. 10/10.
