Actually, this band is The Airborne Toxic Event. They do rock out, but are not "hard rock", and are definitely not to be confused with the Australian hard rock band Airbourne (who incidentally sound a lot like AC/DC, but that's beside the point). UK journalists often use the British spelling, which only serves to add to the confusion!

Sorry Julie, it's no secret that I'm enamored by most things out of Australia and got the two mixed up! Thanks for catching my space cadet moment, yes this is The Airborne Toxic Event and they do ROCK OUT, but unlike Airbourne they hail from another fave city of mine...LA :)
Cheers!
