It’s been over 20 years since Australia’s beloved Recovery ran their special about Aussie rock legends Silverchair, but thanks to the power of the internet you can view it in all its glory.

The graphics may be dated the music definitely isn’t, and it’s a great way to push through your boring weekday arvos. Found in the deep areas of YouTube, this clip is a gem from the Recovery archives.

During the special, the band play a few live songs and endure a few classically awkward interviews from the legendary Dylan Lewis – and it couldn’t be more ’90s.

In case you hadn’t been paying attention, Recovery celebrated 20 years since it first entered our hearts back in 2016, with hosts Lewis and Jane Gazzo still pushing for a return to Aussie screens.

If this is the sort of stuff that they delivered back in 1997, just imagine what they could do now with better production values.
