Wolfmother

[somnambulist]

I couldn't find a topic about them in the first 6 pages and the search function isn't working for me.

 

I just bought their album, and this I must say:

 

Wolfmother = Led Zeppelin reborn.

 

I do realize they are not as good and of course not as original, but I think they're the most accurate representation of Led Zep's spirit there is today.

 

So what do you guys thik of the band.

[shade]

I think they are hella lame.

I think they are hella lame.

Agreed (except I wouldn't use the word "hella")

[Shortcut To Moncton]

They are trying to be too many bands at once.

[gordonfreeman12345]

yeah they are lame especially their band name

[somnambulist]

Hah, well I see I don't share the popular opinion. Well I still think they're cool. Their album drags in a few spots but otherwise it's some good retro rock.

all i've heard is "woman" which was alright but i got tired of it quick.

[MuttersomeTaxicab]

They're a good scene. I can respect what they're doing. I still see their stuff as wearing thin eventually.

 

I mean. The Darkness had some silly chops when it came to the 80's metal thing... And while they released a new CD not too long ago, it's not like they garnered much attention with it.

i just saw them on Friday and they put on a great performance. I'm not too sure if i would pick up an album or anything though.

[somnambulist]

I could see them carrying on a few albums. A couple of their songs need to be skipped but on a whole they've got some pretty good stuff. It was a worthy purchase to me, but they were overshadowed by the Raconteurs becaue I bought the albums at the same time.

 

Wolfmother taps into a few markets, they would appeal to fans of The Mars Volta and similar bands as well as those who like classic rock, and fans of the White Stripes. They haven't shown too much originality yet, but for a band trying to emulate the great band of the 70s, they do a good job.

All I have to say is "WOOOMMMMMANNNN!"

[borntohula]

now that i hear the song all the time, its definitely lost its appeal to my ears. screw this band.

 

also, led zeppelin? they sound nothing like led zeppelin. or the mars volta for that matter.
