Now, Wolfmother comes "Back Round" with Cosmic Egg on the horizon and proves true to form delivering their aggressive and classic sound laced with crunching guitars, muscular rhythms and soaring vocals. Cosmic Egg is bound to take fans into another sonic dimension. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsClassic Rock Revivalists from Down Under Luis Jimenez Victory | Costa rica, Central America | 10/26/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "Here's a band that pays homage to the "rock god pose" all along Wolfmother comes back after the nonstop touring during 2006/2007 and after some lineup changes. The only one remaining from the original power trio members is their front man/guitarist; Andrew Stockdale. Cosmic Egg delivers just as much power as its predecessor self titled "wolfmother"; it contains instant rock staples as the debut album did, but proves that during all that touring his main composer endured much more as a song composer and not just as a riff genius. What this means is that the "filler" of this record is way better that the first album. Standout cuts are: "California Queen", "White Feather", "Pilgrim" and "10.000ft." Sure you get all the myriad of sounds from the influences that plague this band: Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Yes, Free...you name it. But for a change and a boast of freshness sure "old feels good" Long live to Arena Rock and all the good rock from 1975 through 1979 " New Improved Wolfmother Colin Logue | Melbourne, Australia | 10/27/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "This is a much more mature album but maintains the full on rock influences of their eponymous effort plus a little bit of adventurousness. The opener 'California Queen' is followed by 'New Moon Rising' and it's not hard to see why both these tracks have been released as singles. From this great opening pair Wolfmother continue the hard rocking with 'Sundial' offering some Hendrixesque guitar. 'In The Morning' slows things down but only for a moment. Hardly time to catch your breath before '10.000 Feet' and the title track have one scratching their head for another influence superbly executed. Think of Budgie circa 1972 and it is very difficult not to draw the conclusion that Stockdale & Co have been exposed to this brilliantly neglected British band. 'Far Away' brings a temporary halt to the sonic barrage with a beautifully crafted song leaving the feeling that you've heard this before but can't remember where or when. 'In The Castle' opens with an almost prog keyboard intro and psychedelic feel before Stockdale hits his strapes again. The concluding track 'Violence of the Sun' is the most surprising with the band sounding really comfortable with one another playing a mix of jazz and r'n'b with 'wall of sound' drumming. This is a new improved Wolfmother which will please old fans and probably gain some new ones. A definite step forward while maintaining the appeal of their first album. The new line-up gel well together but as before AS is the core and driving force behind Wolfmother. " Wolf rocker Brent N. Humphrey | NW OH | 02/12/2010 (4 out of 5 stars) "This album comes after a so-called break-up. well,more bands need to break up,more often!They really came out swinging a huge hammer on this one.It from the start is decidedly harder and the fuzzy psycadelic stuff is even more matured.The previous album could be a bit sophmorish on some of the trippy parts but this record is definantly more aggressive. and its that in the good way.Great job,very good album!"
