Small-town school pals Janet, Kram, and Whit crowdsurfed into the A-league of Australia's post-grunge boom with the grinding propulsion of their third album, Ivy and the Big Apples. They'd hit No. 1 with a buzz-saw cover of Black Betty in '04, but it was their canny punk tantrum Buy Me a Pony, voted to the top of Triple J's Hottest 100 in '97, that triggered their double-platinum arrival and Best Group gong at the ARIAs. Oscillating between girly sweet melody and gleeful, belching thunder, Spiderbait's live appeal has remained constant, even during a seven-year studio hiatus that ended with the unmistakable helium + distortion equation of their self-titled 2013 return.
