Wolfmother. They're one of rock's last hopes. After releasing they're self-titled debut album in 2005, the band sort of disappeared. People remembered hits like "Woman" and "The Joker and the Thief", but the band themselves weren't doing anything. Turns out that the band had broken up, and frontman Andrew Stockdale was forming a new Wolfmother. The new band then announced their new album, Cosmic Egg. I got the album for my birthday, and decided to write a review of it. I'll give a brief summary to start it off... incredible. I'm dead serious, Cosmic Egg is one of the best new albums I've heard in a long time. They keep the original sound with heavy riffs, crazy solos, and wild vocals, but they experiment more. There's some acoustic guitar thrown in there, and some songs are a little slower. Andrew Stockdale's voice seems more mature than it did on Wolfmother and it's not as wild. But he can still throw out those crazy screams we all know and love. The new band sounds better than the old one, and overall the album itself is better. Cosmic Egg is easily the best album I've heard all year, and possibly the best album of the decade. It's that good.

9/10

Oh, and to those of you who think that Wolfmother is metal, you're wrong. Wolfmother is 80x better than any kind of metal. They're more like Led Zeppelin than anything.
