wolfmother lp
I've been up so many goddamn nights in a row working late recently it seems I spend much more time infront of the computer working than I spend living a real life. One reason I haven't minded working like an absolute dog recently is Wolfmother. Their debut album rocks the 70's metal style so much.
Once apon a time when I took myself too seriously I probably wouldn't of let myself enjoy this album because it references earlier music so faithfully that I would dismissed it as gimmick rock. Ala. the darkness. But then I learnt to relax and rock the hell out. This album is colossal, and every rock fan should have it. The sound is thunderous, the bass line is simple and intense, vocals and weedy and ozzy inspired and it's absolutely spot on. The organ sounds on Mind's eye are eye watering. Miss out on this at your peril, its damned fine.
Who gives a shit if its ironic or post-rock or what the hell, disengage your critical faculties and enjoy this for what it is, absolutely amazing rock.
I give it 5 busted speaker grilles out of 5.
