Wolfmother

Poor neglected web site. It's not that I stopped listening to music, it's just that I was getting back into a lot of old favorites that you guys already know about. As you might know, I like to organize my music with MediaMonkey and I like to rate my songs. It makes it so that I can make smart playlists based on what I like (or don't like). I also use the ratings as a starting point to make "Ultimate " playlists (my own custom Greatest Hits collections). So in the past 5-months, I've gone through some of my much beloved classic bands and listened to everything and rated all the tracks. This includes Genesis, Jethro Tull, Led Zeppelin, Beastie Boys, PFR, Jars of Clay, Material Issue, Van Halen and Rush. So, you know... that took a while.

But I have been checking out some new stuff here and there and my new favorite band of the moment is Wolfmother. Three guys from Australia that Rich described over the phone to me as "the second coming of Led Zeppelin". That didn't get me excited, though, because that's what people said about Kingdom Come and, well... bleccchh. But then I made the connection... Kingdom Come was a project by Lenny Wolf and the band I'm hearing about now is Wolfmother. And, you know... you can make any sort of connection you want there. I really don't have a good joke to go here, so I think I'll just get to the point. Wolfmother rocks. AMG doesn't like the album as much as I do and I can understand their problems with the album, but I'm having a good time every time I put the album on and that's what counts, right?
