Midnight Oil

Midnight Oil were an Australian rock band known for their driving hard rock sound, superb live performances and their overt left-wing political activism. Peter Garrett, the former lead singer, is an active campaigner for social and environmental issues (currently a member of the Australian Parliament) and this is reflected in many of the band's songs, although the band's early status as icons of leftist polemicism has since been undercut by the revelation that both guitarist (and main songwriter) Jim Moginie and singer Peter Garrett are both "born-again" Christians.
