Russell Crowe's band has been mentioned in the past on this list, so I'll bring it up again only because of a funny Midnight Oil reference.  The September 21 edition of _Entertainment Weekly_ has this blurb about Crowe's band:

30 ODD FOOT OF GRUNTS Bastard Life or Clarity (Artemis) 
It'd be easy to dismiss this Russell Crowe-led band as a vanity project
from a movie star living out a fantasy otherwise unattainable.
Which it probably is (despite the fact that Crowe's played with
Grunt member Dean Cochran since 1984). But their Bon
Jovi-meets-Midnight Oil  sound is more original and accomplished
than that of, say, Dogstar, and if you tune out the
often-laughable lyrics and tentative vocals and try not to think
about Gladiator loincloths, Life is often rewarding. B-
