Chumbawamba

1 January 2002 by danielbowen

[There is] an odd-sounding song by your countrymen that has made an appearence here. The “group” is called “Chumbawamba”. The “song” is called “Tubthumper.” As a cultural export, I’m not exactly sure it does Australia proud. - Douglas, USA

I hate to disappoint you Douglas, but while there are plenty of oddball Australian bands (TISM especially springs to mind), Chumbawamba isn’t one of them. They’re from Leeds, in England. Heck, they don’t even sound Australian! And actually, I quite like Tubthumping. They’ve used it for a Rugby commercial here.
