Hall of Fame inductees

Kim Salmon

The Age music writer Patrick Donovan said Salmon's sound extended beyond Australia, influencing the likes of Nirvana and Mudhoney. Donovan said "There's an argument … that grunge was actually invented in Australia by garage bands like The Scientists, the Cosmic Psychos and the Lime Spiders, Kim has spent much of his career confounding people as he experimented and evolved. We are the better for it."
