GANGgajang's "Sounds of Then (This Is Australia)" comes off the band's self-titled 1985 debut, written by frontman Mark "Cal" Callaghan, who sings it and plays guitar. He produced the album with bandmate Graham Bidstrup and Joe Wissert at Rhinoceros Studios.
Issued as a single that November, it only reached No. 35 on the Kent Music Report in February 1986, but it outgrew that modest chart run to become the band's best-known song, and it has come to be heard as a portrait of the country itself; the Nine Network even used it for a station ID promotion in 1996. The B-side, "House of Cards", was recorded live for youth station 2JJJ.
