I would have said it was the Monochrome Set that Franz Ferdinand ripped off.

Now that's a band I'd forgotten all about until last year, when someone dug up a scary 80s picture me of wearing their t-shirt (it's on my Facebook page :)). I don't think I could remember a single song of theirs.
Incidentally, what is it about Down Under that all the good punk/garage bands were from Australia and all the good pop bands were from New Zealand?
