'' This blitzkrieg of an EP is so zoned out it makes us want to dip our heads in acid and bark like dogs. Woof''
DAZED & CONFUSED Jan '05
Some say it's like Sabbath and Zeppelin were cryogenically frozen but took a knowledge pill and were thawed
in 2004. But it's different. It's no throwback or pastiche or parody, but a celebration of the love of music.
It's that goddamn Wolfmother band who have blitzed the Australian music scene and are set to do the same here
From Dimension's military, thundering drums, roaring axe intro and stunning melody, to Woman's showcase of
vocalist/guitarist Andrew Stockdale's shivery holler, right through to the chugging riffs and sludgy breakdown
of Apple Tree and the freaked-out psyche of The White Unicorn, this Sydney trio bring not only the noise
but also the nous.
It's not just that the tools in thier box haven't been used before, it's that they've never been used so well
or in such a unique, fitting fashion. A dangerously on-point voice, huge earthquake riffs, thrilling arpeggios
and tumbling drums going off like fireworks are all over the Wolfmother EP.
The EP was recorded by the band themselves in their small Sydney studio and then sent to the US for mastering
duties by Jim Diamond of The Dirtbombs, who brought the recording as close to the Hulk-sized live sound as you
could hope for. Since then, the band has played alongside the likes of Death From Above 1979 and The Black Keys
