    i saw them at lollapalooza and was pretty bored. they've got a good sound... but that's really all it is: sound. their songs were indistinguishable.

    I'm not a big fan of theirs. I kind of agree that their songs get boring after a while they sound quite similar.

    Just not my cup of tea, but there are far worse bands out there

    Of course, nobody is perfect. And it's always nice to have a little help:

    They're certainly not bad. Lots of fun live.

    Saw them once in a very small bar over a year ago...awesome show

    saw them again at v fest and got really bored

    their album got old quickly as well...just my opinion

    edit: forgot to mention that their lead singer is an asshole

    I watched a vid of Ed singing with them a while back, that link was just a random youtube link I dug up of him singing "Mind's Eye" with Wolfmother.

    They would make a good Zeppelin/Purlple/Sabbath cover band. As for their own music... it's utter shit!! Go discover Zeppelin and Sabbath kids.

    Typical elitist remark. Wolfmother rocks, especially for a 3 piece.

    OMG!

    AMAZING BAND!

    I saw them at Hammerstein back in November, one of the best non-PJ shows that I have ever been to. They only have one album out and they played for about an hour and 20 minutes. The 2nd to last song was Communication Breakdown by Zep :D

    Although I haven't seen these boys live, I did pick up the album awhile back. Always enjoyed it. Mind's Eye is my favorite song off the album by far.

    i'm with ya 100%. except for the being at lollapalooza part... that would have been nice.

    in smaller doses, I think the album is great....gets a little boring and monotonous (to me) after a handful of songs. But go back to it and sounds good again.

    I think wolfmother will be real big in a release or two. I picked up there self titled albumn and I think it's really good.
