  • Ammonia é uma banda de rock alternativo que surgiu na Austrália no começo dos anos 90. Eles conseguiram moderado sucesso, produzindo uma mistura oriunda do som das bandas do movimento Grunge e guitarras pop (um som que eles mesmo rotularam de "Pop-Metal"). O grupo foi formado em 1992, inicialmente composto por Dave Johnstone na guitarra, Alan Balmont na bateria e Phil Natt no baixo. Esta formação fazia shows sobre o nome "Fuzzswirl". Depois da saída de Natt no baixo, a banda passou a tocar com diversos baixistas até encontrar Simon Hensworth, depois da entrada de Hensworth na banda, o grupo muda seu nome para "Ammonia". A banda, primeiramente havia escolhido o nome "Glorious Noise Earthquake", mas decidiu trocar para "Ammonia" devido a sua simplicidade, depois de Hensworth ver o nome em um livro de ciências. (pt)
