When Australian retro rockers Wolfmother effectively split last summer, mainman Andrew Stockdale (the one with the afro) vowed to hire new hands and continue under the hairy moniker. He has…

Wolfmother request that, "in lieu of payment for the rollicking new Wolfmother track, please show your appreciation and compassion by donating to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal 2009."
