Critical praise for Wolfmother:
"If AC and DC had a baby, Andrew Stockdale would be their rock & roll problem child... Fuzz-gasmic riffing and angry-viking vocals. Four Stars." - Rolling Stone
"Refreshingly earnest and expertly executed." - Spin
"A psychedelic/post-punk/stoner rock-influenced barrage of fuzzy riffs and jammy buildups. Stockdale knows how to deliver the goods." - Relix
"Roaring and tense with an explosion lurking around every corner." - Time Out NY
