[htismaqe]

I picked it up today...

WOW, pretty fuggin sweet...

For those of you that participated in the new music thread and made comments, I'm really hearing some of them now that I've had a chance to concentrate on it.

Some of it sounds like Zeppelin, some of it sounds like Deep Purple or Black Sabbath, and some of it even has a feel of like Yes or Styx to it.

It's definitely late 70's music...heavy guitars, Hammond organ, good stuff...

There is flute.

Bob Dole doesn't typically like the 70's retro-rock stuff, but this one combines enough elements from different bands (rather than re-hashing a single sound) that's it's pretty interesting.

Yep, there's a flute, and the tempo of that song even sounds kinda like Tull.

But like Bob said, they don't sound like a knockoff. They just sound "influenced".

BBBLLLEEEECCCCHHHHH!!!

Just saw the new iPod + iTunes commercial...

[DeepPurple]

I saw Wolfmother on Conan O'Brien last night, first time I heard of them, Zeppelin immediately came to mind. I believe Conan said they were from Australia, it was a pleasant surprise because 9 times out of 10 any unknown band on the late night talk shows either suck or rap, which is the same. Right after watching Wolfmother I switched over to see who Jimmy Kimmel had, and I was right, some band from England who sucked.

His voice does sound kinda Robert Plant-ish, but it also sounds a bit like Marc Bolan too...
