Any worries that the new band lineup of Andrew Stockdale and two new guys would lead Wolfmother to do anything other than classic rock-referencing stadium rock is quickly dashed with "New Moon Rising," the first single from the group's sophomore album, Cosmic Egg. If you like old Wolfmother, this song will push all your buttons again: It's got a fireworks-heavy riff, a soaring chorus, and a lot of banshee wailing.
Cosmic Egg is due out on Oct. 13 via Interscope. [Stereogum]
