As promised, Wolfmother

This is the first band since the late 70′s that I have heard that sounds like good hard beat rock. I am really thrilled that someone has taken all that rock was and brought it into this generation with a bit of a twist.

Wolfmother

Sydney Australia

Original line up

Andrew Stockdale – vocals and guitars

Chris ross bass and keyboards

Myles Heskett drums

First album – studio album Wolfmother

Recorded in Studio City Hollywood CA

Produced by dave sardy

Reached 3 in Assyria albums chart
Won 2005 J Award
And ARIA Award best breakthrough album 2006

Woman – single won them their first grammy for best hard rock preformance in 2007

In August 2008 Ross and Heskett left the band, , second album Dimensions realeased in 2009

New members are guitarist Aidan Nemeth and keyboardist Ian Peres and drummer Dave Atkins.

I took a listen to the album compared it to what I have heard before and I still think this band is a ghost of rocker past.

It’s the right blend of today and yesterday, from voals that are at once three or more familiar voices from the late 70s to the writing that is just what I loved to hear most in the 80s

My favorites are Love train… so Ozzyish and

I also like the The Earths Rotation Around the Sun.

So here is a band from this generation who has gotten themselves stuck in my rockers heart.

Comments on the blog – if they are negative they wont fly.

Today I have had it with the negative posts made here, I normally delete them and give them no mind due to having two years of Troll patrol under my belt from my Jericho days ( I have learned alot , trust me) but today for the third and FINAL time I have comments left here that are from fake accounts at Yahoo and elsewhere. I wont take this crap as I own this website, me….If you are too chicken shit to come here and leave words in your own name , with your own email then go blow off. Now, please know this is me being nice!

If I prefer to support someone, that is my business and none of yours. I know who you are, as the tracking of you is actually quite easy. So, leave off before I get angry. Jeff and Bob have been super awesome to me personally by giving me interviews as well as being accessible and friendly beyond belief – that does not fit the prima donna comment you left, does it.

And if you really feel what you typed about about the person you referred, why not just go and tell them? For all those who feel they need to leave negative comments, please do not. I am not going to approve them.
