"Wolfmother, YOU SUCK!!" Gotta love Mike. Still a good album

warning: 10th anniversary vinyl has a completely different track order and adds the song LOVE TRAIN... wish I had known this, but in my experience switched up track orders for vinyl don't take anything away from them (for me at least, even on a prog metal album surprisingly)

no they don't suck, you think they sound dated when they came out b/c it's just standard hard rock. and? that's an awesome genre, let me help you with this:

step 1: THROW YOUR S*&^%* EARBUDS AND IPHONE IN THE GARBAGE.

step 2: BUY TOWER SPEAKERS, A MIXER, AND A RECORD PLAYER.

step 3: TURN THE VOLUME UP TO MAX.

enjoy your newfound appreciation for bands like kiss, ac/dc, wolfmother, and every other "standard hard rock" act that you've dismissed after listening with earbuds while lying around or walking/driving somewhere. there's definitely a time and a place for music like this and it's not the same as for more artistic/creative stuff. you're welcome.

Very surprised that this gets rated so highly. Rather dull and with only one good song. Pass

Feels like a record from the 1970s. Not *inspired by* the 70s, but actually *from* the 70s. It's pretty good, if a little gratuitous at times.

Great production quality, not one bad song and a flute solo during "Witchcraft". Maybe one of the best debut albums of all time.

Awesome hard rock album. Some of the songs aren't too memorable, but there's also a few songs that are really great and fun to listen to. It sounds a lot like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and other 70s and 80s hard rock bands mixed with modern bands like The White Stripes. There's a lot of great riffs here, and I think it's a really underrated debut.
Best tracks: Woman, Joker & The Thief, Vagabond
Worst track: Pyramid

Tiens Led Zeppelin est de retour ? En écoutant Mother , on s'y croirait presque . Beaucoup de plaisir à écouter ce groupe , bon album

Great bare-boned rock album, back to basic. The Special Edition of this album offers another great song: "love Train" which adds another favorite of mine on the album, along with "Woman" and "Joker & The Thief".
