I know this is kind of a rhetorical question on this board, but whatever...

Yay or nay? I think it's an amazing album, heavy as fuck, great blues/hard rock combo, and a lot of energy. Not to mention great songs.

Rhetorical as well because, as I've just checked, it was out in 2003, is less than 10 years old and so doesn't meet the basic classic standards. Still, 2013 isn't that far away... :P

I voted against the motion.

The riff to Black Math? The "breakdown" in I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself? Come on!

You need to know the context. In this case, the Wolfmother review thread.

Nope.


I won't object to a regular review, but a classic? In a site that reviews predominantly Metal albums? No way no how.

+1. That's just my opinion.

If White Stripes get a classic before Angel Witch, something is really wrong in this place.

I doubt that would make a difference to anyone that voted against this.
