Apple Tree's starting to grow on me. Just what I feared.

sgrevs 11-18-2005 01:14 AM

i saw their EP in JB HI-FI a while ago. the sign underneath it said "better than jet!" and i thought "this has to be the way to go then!"

they're good. i need to buy their album.

clown_phobia 11-18-2005 03:31 AM

they are really good

123.

TheJarve 11-18-2005 03:41 AM

what means 123?

clown_phobia 11-18-2005 04:05 AM

123 means I agree. It's a quick way of getting past the minimum character limit.

Tomahawk 11-18-2005 08:21 AM

Many things are better than Jet. Most things.

slash2005 11-18-2005 04:08 PM

jet sucks ****, they only have 1 sound. i cant tell 1 song from the next. i hope they all get stranded somewhere in the middle east so they stop emarrasing australia

W.M.A 11-19-2005 01:02 AM

jet does suck. i cant understand why powderfinger cant make it in the U.S. as an australian i wouldnt be embarrassed to see them tearing up the states.

Sph 11-20-2005 05:38 AM

Wow, just bought their album. Cool. I'll have to look out for these guys.

I Was A Kaleidoscope 11-21-2005 04:56 AM

I like [I]The White Unicorn[/I].

homeonice 11-21-2005 11:18 PM

im seeing these guys at the BDO in feb 06. Their Debut is rad.

plaidbassbilly 11-22-2005 04:10 AM

I got their album last night, and I'm loving the song "The Joker And The Thief." I think Triple J has played nearly all these songs before, I just never realised they were all by the same band.

london_calling 11-23-2005 01:44 AM

Wolfmother are awsome!!! Im gonna see them at BDO '06 , but I havent got their album yet. Is it good?

W.M.A 11-23-2005 04:35 AM

****s on the EP. yeh its ****in awesome, unless ur one of these ppl gettin hung up on them soundin like (insert generic classic 70s rock band).

Tapeworm 11-23-2005 06:07 PM

god i hate triple j.

cap 11-24-2005 12:13 AM

your so indie.

Wolfmother are beginning to annoy me. I loved them, now.. I have found things that I don't like. I could write a thesis but I won't.

london_calling 11-24-2005 12:19 AM

[QUOTE=Tapeworm]god i hate triple j.[/QUOTE]

Please explain.

redstar_blackfist 11-25-2005 01:34 AM

I like Wolfmother

homeonice 11-25-2005 11:29 AM

triple j is the only good radio station available. If you dont agree, theres something wrong coz everything else is ****. Maybe you listen to RTR, but thats **** mostly. Id like to know what you hate about triple j :confused:

cap 11-25-2005 03:51 PM

FBI is an ok radio station; but I'm guessing he does not like TripleJ because of their rather arrogant attitude - that and they are pretty commercial. They play NME music also.

I've written a review on Wolfmother - I'll post it in this thread soon.

tinnitus 11-29-2005 06:17 AM

Get this, in an interview with end of fashion on channel V i think it was, the lead singer had a full pay out session on wolfmother saying that he thinks the recycling of old rock is crap and that Jet were bad enough, how dare he compare jet to wolfmother, and i do not believe end of fashion are tredding any new water themselves the fuk ups, i suggest everyone not go to end of fashion at the big day out

Jim 11-29-2005 06:44 AM

I think End of Fashion are just another boring indie band.

/hopes he doesn't offend indie fans

W.M.A 11-29-2005 07:50 AM

**** that im gonna bring eggs to Big Day Out and see how he likes smelling like **** all day. end of fashion r laughable, as were his previous band, the sleep jackson. so **** him.

oh yeh and triple j blows like all aussie radio stations...

Carlordau 11-29-2005 08:46 AM

Haha, the lead singer of End of Fashion, wat an idiot. Wolfmother are awesome (unlike Jet), so he has no right bagging them, when his band no-where near compares to Wolfmother. End of Fashion are a typical aussie band being produced atm *yawn* heard it. Im gonna c Wolfmother @ rock-it :D , they should be awesome, by going on other peoples opinions on the band, cant w8 :thumb:

[QUOTE=bahamut_ali]I think End of Fashion are just another boring indie band.

/hopes he doesn't offend indie fans[/QUOTE]
Considering the fact that End of Fashion are a pop-rock band, I don't think indie fans will be offended.

Also, I don't see the problem with comparing Wolfmother to Jet. Seeing as they are both Australian rock bands, they are both majorly derivative, and they both suck major amounts of a[size=2]ss[/size]. They have a fair amount in common.

Tapeworm 11-29-2005 07:18 PM

whoever this guy is totally wins.

All radio sucks.

Little Man being Erased 11-29-2005 07:27 PM

[QUOTE=Tapeworm]All radio sucks.[/QUOTE]
oh yeah, I forgot to say that too

Aus_rock_god 11-29-2005 10:02 PM

Ah yes, Wolfmother. Apparently, they don't really get along with Evermore.
I really want to hear some of their stuff, but from what I've heard, they're just another Jet (Ie: ripping off old bands and not acctually adding anything).
Their stuff is hard to track down, I can't find anything on my (normally) trusty filesharing programs.

sgrevs 11-29-2005 11:19 PM

Wolfmother are the shiznat, shame bout what the End of Fashion dude said, he just cemented himself in my trusty black book of dickheads, the lucky boy. It's not a real book btw, its just names i keep locked away in m' nogen. Well I wasn't planning on seeing them when I'm at Falls or Big Day Out but it is now confirmed that I won't see them at either. Thanks for the heads up!

sgrevs 11-29-2005 11:20 PM

And triple J is wicked, loads of new stuff all the time, Home n Hosed ain't bad, Full Metal Racket, and Jay n the Doctor all great.

W.M.A 11-29-2005 11:24 PM

seeing as nothing is original nemore, u might as well sound like the great bands. and theyre not ****ing identical, christ get over it. all bands rip off someone.

gourbon 12-04-2005 11:56 PM

their album has gone platinum in aus. wooo

Jim 12-05-2005 07:17 AM

Kudos for the review cap. Very nice.

I also think the lyrics are unoriginal and a little too...well you know. Gnomes? Witchcraft? Jokers and thieves?

But yeah, the music is what its about. Just good music. No effing around you know? As you said, no real ballads to speak of. Straight into it. Hopefully they'll expand and grow on their next outing, though.

Again, nice review. :thumb:
