New Wolfmother!
I was gonna get a haircut this weekend. But in honor of a blazing new cut from Wolfmother on the Spidey 3 soundtrack, I'm gonna let my sweet 'do poof out...
Wolfmother
Song: Pleased to Meet You
Album: Spider-Man 3 Soundtrack (Record Collection)
In stores: Now
Why we care: The Australian fuzzballs are back! Anchoring the soundtrack for the latest Spidey flick, the shaggy trio contribute this herky-jerky Hendrixian pounder. Guitar theatrics galore. Much bong-smoking shall commence.
Why we like it: Lead singer-guitarist Andrew Stockdale — he of the sagebrush hair and high piercing wail — is in particularly frisky, circa-’67 form. Now if they’d only stop touring and make that second album.
Reminds us of: Why Wolfmother’s ’06 debut was our album of the year. We still can’t believe how good that sucker is.
Song grade: A
