''Wolfmother'' is the debut studio album by Australian hard rock band Wolfmother, originally released on 31 October 2005 in Australia. The album was later released internationally at various dates in 2006, with the addition of "Love Train" and a rearranged track listing. ''Wolfmother'' peaked at number three on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart and was certified five times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association. Six singles were released from Wolfmother's debut album: "Mind's Eye"/"Woman", "White Unicorn", "Dimension", "Woman", "Love Train" and "Joker & the Thief", the latter of which charted the highest at number eight on the ARIA Singles Chart. The album cover, which is taken from ''The Sea Witch'' by Frank Frazetta, shows a nymph standing against a blue/orange sky, on a rock, though because it displays nudity the album is sold in Wal-Mart stores with an alternate cover featuring simply the band's white logo against a black background. It is the only album to feature co-founding members Chris Ross and Myles Heskett, who left the band in August 2008. - Wikipedia
Given all the buzz glopped onto Early Man and the Sword, stoner rock/metal is the subgenre of note these days. Wolfmother are moving at lightspeed to capitalize, already following up their boogie-happy teaser EP, Dimensions, in January with this rollicking full-length.
