When a Band Names Themself After One of Your Favorite Works - And Suck

[NashVegas]

I took the time to track down Wolfmother and listen to their offerings online.

Tom Robbins fans will recognize the name as a recurring element of Skinny Legs and All.

Okay, they don't suck, but it's 100% pure cock-rock.

I get the feeling they missed the whole point of that book.

1. Ahhh but you miss the whole point of Wolfmother

It's Cock-Rock, but a throwback to the late-70's/early-80's cock rock of Black Sabbath, Early Whitesnake and Led Zeppelin.

A tip of the hat if you will...and between the lines in their lyrics is some good stuff.

3. Yeah .. All That Stuff I Rebelled Against When I Found B-52s

And my brothers threatened to beat me up for listening to it.

2. Toad the Wet Sprocket

100% suck

[NashVegas]

4. OOOH

I'd 100% agree of their early stuff, say 80% of their later stuff, but I did like "Woodburning," and a couple others on Dulcinea.

5. Like They Might Be Giants?

Nowhere nearly as entertaining as the original movie
