Sydney’s Wolfmother is far and away the band I’m listening to most at the moment. Every last song on their eponymous 2005 album is just as good as the others. It Rocks the *!#%@ Out!

Above is the video for their song, Mind’s Eye. Sharp eyes will recognize the back drop as L.A.’s Vasquez Rocks, the [...]

I don’t how The Colbert Report got ahold of our secret plans, but since the cat is out of the bag we better just go back to our original plans of taking over the Internet.
