Getting together as teens in 1992, Australia's Silverchair wrote songs in the vein of their grunge heroes. Why they outlived the era, however, is because they turned away from it. After a pair of post-grunge LPs landed them international hits in the mid-'90s, Silverchair revamped their sound at the turn of the millennium, incorporating electronics and art-rock structures on 1999's Neon Ballroom. The risky move gave the band a second wind as alt-rockers who could write ballads, which they carried forward for two more albums before disbanding in 2011 as one of Australia's biggest bands.
