I recently started listening to these dudes again on Pandora radio. I picked up their album awhile back because I heard it on Guitar Hero II. How poserish I know. Those were different times... :(
Anyhow these guys got really hyped out for no apparent reason. I guess everyone liked the song "Women" and didn't look any further. Their self titled EP "Wolfmother" is actually a pretty solid album. Theres tons of material to be heard here, for the Australian Trio. They've got a drummer, a lead singer/guitarist, and a bassist/ keyboardest. An intersting trio really because it sounds like a full band.
I've gotta say the coolest part about Wolfmother is that they've nailed the retro sound without sounding like they're trying to be in the trend of retro rock that came out in the 2000's. I really dig on the opening track Dimension, because it's no bullshit, all balls rock and roll.
Favorite Tracks:
Dimension - Kicks Ass
White Unicorn - Goes into a quiet jam and then comes back to kick you in the nuts
Women - Great Single
Colossal - Very Sabbath like
Minds Eye - Catchy
Witchcraft - Jethro Tull esc. flute solo. Plus it's about Witchcraft.
Not to mention check out this fucking sweet artwork.
