Nominated by: @JASON_ROCKS1998

Current Members: Andrew Stockdale (Vocals/Guitars), Ian Peres (Bass/Backing) & Alex Carapetis (Drums)
Former Members: Chris Ross (Bass), Myles Heskett (Drums) & Dave Atkins (Drums)
Major Achievements: Since the release of their debut album they have been compared to rock bands of the 60's & 70's including Led Zepplin, Black Sabbath and AC/DC. They have also been compared to modern rock bands such as The White Strypes, The Darkness and Queens of the Stone Age. Both their singles and albums have been extremely popular, with their debut album "Wolfmother" (and their second album "Cosmic Egg") getting to 3rd in the Australian ARIA Charts, while Dimension made it to #1 in the UK rock charts with Woman & Lovetrain making it to #2.
Additional Information: Wolfmother are an Australian hard rock band from Sydney, formed in 2000. They launched their first album in 2006 to international acclaim, selling over 1.5 Million copies and winning many industry awards. The lineup has changed a few times over the year and Wolfmother have takes some breaks (usually 2 or 3 years long), but they are still going strong, releasing "Victorious" earlier this year. Their work has seen good use as part of soundtracks for games and films, with Saints Row 2 and Need For Speed Carbon both having Wolfmother in their soundtracks, while "Pleased To Meet You" was part of Spider-Man 3's soundtrack. Despite comparisons to other artists, they have still been widely praised with "generally favourable reviews" on Metacritic although some critics claim the band has brought no originality to the genre.
