Their sound is a throwback to 1970s hard rock-- miles of galloping riffs, noodling organ, and guitar fuzz-- but what makes their self-titled debut rise above mere pastiche is how capably they strike a balance between meaty vintage metal and crisp, stoner-rock melodies.
My 12-year-old self would've loved the living shit out of this band. These guys sound like if you took any famous hard rock band from the 70's and mixed them with The White Stripes. Is it by any means original? Not at all. But is it at least enjoyable? Hell yes! The whole album is filled to the brim with anthemic energy and awesome guitar riffs! In fact, it's so fun that it's easy to forgive the rather cliched-as-hell writing... kinda.

Wolfmother's self titled debut is a charismatic, psychedelic journey that ranges in many emotions. This bands ability to carve out its own sound in noodly guitars, raw punk, and psychedelia tinged anthems are the beginning. The hidden surprises you will find in this album make it all the better.
