I have been umming and aahing over my last 4 picks for ages now, but I think I have it sorted. I'm never in these things to win them (and in that respect I have certainly been unfailingly successful) so I'm very happy to go with my heart here and stay true and go all-out Aussie for my final 4.

I was fairly set on my next 3 picks but only finally decided on this particular selection when I came across this particular video of the tune. A savage rendition of an excellent song by a band ahead of their time and who still today are producing at an astounding level:

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Mercy Seat


My next pick was easier and has been on my list all tourney. A criminally underrated band:

The Church - The Unguarded Moment
