Top 10 Best Songs by Wolfmother

Wolfmother, the brainchild of Australian curly-haired rocker Andrew Stockdale, brought the hard rock of the 70s back to the hit lists in the 2000s. Their sound is an explosive mix of Led Zeppelin riffs, Black Sabbath heaviness and psychedelic influences.

It's music without brakes: screaming guitars, thundering drums and Stockdale's high, wailing vocals. Wolfmother sounds like a vintage amplifier set to setting 11 and about to explode.

The ultimate festival closer. The guitar intro, which gets faster and faster, builds unbearable tension. When the beat kicks in, the venue explodes.nnThe song is a roller coaster of energy. The references to Bob Dylan in the title are nice, but the music is pure hard rock adrenaline. Grand, bombastic and irresistible.
