Wolfmother? Like It? Hate It? indifferent?

sycodee

I like it so far...

Like it, with reservations. I wouldn't say it sounds original...kinda cross between the Doors, Sabbath and Zep, with a bit of Deep Purple here and there. But...for all that, it's not too bad. When my roomie put in on the stereo the other day (my first listen) I swear my first thought was, some live version of Riders on the Storm. And when he started singing, proving me wrong, I asked him if it was Ozzy.

uh....


who what where?

agreed.
if it was 1994 i would just say "it sounds just like Sabbath meets Zeppelin and the Doors"

but since it's 2006 and Emo sucks asshole,
i'll just say, "TAKE YOUR ROCK WHERE YOU FIND IT, WHIP OUT YOUR COCK, AND GET DOWN!"

That is what I hear...and I figure for $15 I can't go wrong. Just a way to tide me over till July when I get 3 PJ shows and Social Distortion!

They are playing here at the Cats Cradle June 7th. Thinking about going. Ill probably be off from work that week so I might have to check them out.

i've only given it one spin so far, but i likes it. they're not breaking any sonic ground here, but nothing wrong with rocking out. i will say they might be the best Aussie band I've heard since Living End (or Skulker...that's a little inside one for you Aussies).

DieasGrey

like it...

nothing new , but i like it

LMAO!!!! Hysterical....


I've only heard one song, Woman, I thought it was some Led Zeppelin lost track, lol. But yeah, I liked it and would like to chk out the rest of the album....

I thought the cd was excellent. Who cares if they sound like Sabbath, Zep and Cream. More bands should.

Give them a chance. Wolfmother have been a big thing in Australia for at least the last two years. I've lost count as to how many times I have seen them live- especially at all the festivals I've been to. No matter the festival, Wolfmother is bound to be there!

Yeah, they are a little 70's, but they have some decent songs. In fact they began to get overplayed here in Australia. Every teenybopper thought they were cool if they listened to Wolfmother.

And good on them for trying to break the market in the rest of the world. They sound like they are doing well.

But I personally think they are pretty good... Can't wait to see them at Splendour in July.

good sound...good cd...a must listen for sure

"Dimension" is my song of choice right now since it pays homage to Hendrix

It's not like that hasn't been done before. ((cough))SS((cough)).

At least they changed the rest of it.....Musically it's different. I'd see them for 15.00.

Kinda digging Mind's Eye from the ITunes snippet.

Thanks for bringing them up.
