Number 80 - Powderfinger - Vulture Street (2003) - Best Australian albums of the 80's-NOW!

Vulture Street is not the last Powderfinger record you will see on my Best Australian albums of the 80's-NOW! list.

If you followed the list earlier on in the year, you would know Powderfinger rocked it.

Their fifth studio album was released on 29 July 2003. It won the 2003 ARIA Music Award for Best Rock Album. Vulture Street was certified platinum, and spent 47 weeks on the ARIA Charts and peaked at #1.

Singles from the album included (Baby I've Got You) On My Mind, Since You've Been Gone, Love Your Way & Sunsets.

The album received nominations for ARIA Awards in five different categories in 2003, which included Album of the Year, Best Group & Best Rock Album. 

Vulture Street also received the award for "Best Cover Art", which featured Czech supermodel Eva Herzigová.

The title of the album was taken from an iconic street in the inner southern suburbs of Brisbane, Queensland, the city in which all Powderfinger members grew up.
