(GOOD NEWS) Wolfmother to split?

 

Wolfmother are rumoured to be splitting up after the band played a tense live show in Australia - and then their manager said that they would be releasing a statement about their status soon.

 

The rockers played a show at the Splendour In The Grass festival in Byron Bay on Sunday (August 3), with fans reporting that the band looked tense and uncommunicative with each other.

 

An anonymous source told Undercover.com.au that there had been issues between frontman Andrew Stockdale and the other band members, Chris Ross and Myles Heskett.

 

The band's manager, John Watson, told the website that a statement would soon be issued about the band's status. He refused to confirm or deny whether the band were set to split up.

 

"I can't make any comment other than to say as soon as the band has clear future plans they will issue a statement, and we hope to be able to do that in the next week or two," he said.

how is this good news. i like Wolfmother, they have a classic rock sound.

Yeah, this is BAD NEWS!

Grammy Award winning rock band Wolfmother has announced the resignation of bass/keyboard player Chris Ross and drummer Myles Heskett effective immediately.

 

Singer/guitarist Andrew Stockdale now plans to find other musicians over coming months and to then begin making a new Wolfmother album.

 

Wolfmother toured the world virtually non-stop through 2006 and early 2007 on the back of their acclaimed self titled debut album. Longstanding frictions within the group then lead them to take an extended break during the second half of 2007 to consider their future.

 

In early 2008 they regrouped and worked on new material. Initially encouraged by those sessions, they committed to a handful of live shows to ‘road test’ the new songs and to try to find a way forward.

 

Those dates concluded with a headlining slot last Sunday at the Splendour In The Grass Festival in Australia’s Byron Bay where rumours circulated about possible lineup changes.

 

Following that show Chris Ross decided to announce that he was leaving the band due to irreconcilable personal and musical differences. Myles Heskett has also decided to leave the band rather than continuing as part of a changed lineup. The pair has been working together on songs for some time and they plan to focus their energies on that new project in the future.

 

Wolfmother’s self titled debut album is one of the most successful Australian rock releases this century. It has sold over 1.3 million copies and received multiple ARIA Awards and a Grammy – making them the first Aussie band to receive such an award in 25 years. Other highlights for the group have included appearances at just about every major music festival in the world, sharing stages with Pearl Jam, The Who and The Strokes, and a special performance inducting the legendary Led Zeppelin into the UK’s Rock’n'Roll Hall of Fame.

 

Andrew Stockdale, Myles Heskett and Chris Ross will make no public statements at this time except to say that they are each really looking forward to making their new music over the years ahead.

 

In the meantime they simply ask all Wolfmother fans to please understand that in spite of their best efforts over a long period of time, they just could not find a harmonious way to work together and that has lead to the decisions announced today.

die,idiot

We really dont appreciate this kind of talk:thinking:

Honestly, nobody cares about shitstirrers around here, so stop trying

cunt,check your first post on this thread and SHUT THE FUCK UP

dude if you want to express you opinion fine just dont be a dick you fuckstick. Wolfmother was a talented band i will miss them. tell me why it is good news? i hope Andrew finds more talented musicians.

yeh i really dont think it was appropriate to put "good news" on the title of this thread. we all have different music tastes. and i dont see how this is good news for anyone. people who love wolfmother (including me, theyre my fave aussie band) are dissapointed cos they split up after only one great album. and it cant be good news for haters of the band because they still exist and the bands sound will remain even though the line up is completely different.

 

but to be honest most of us saw this coming for a while now. spending 14 months recording a new album was an ominous sign to begin with and such huge successs so early in a bands career hardly ever turns out well in the end.

 

the original three are still in their early 30s so anything is possible in the future

dude if you want to express you opinion fine just dont be a dick you fuckstick. Wolfmother was a talented band i will miss them. tell me why it is good news? i hope Andrew finds more talented musicians.

 

Another quality band gone :(

^^

 

not quite gone. just a major line up change. im sure the bands sound wont change majorly but it will take a while for the chemistry to build up between andrew and the new members. then again coldplay have nearly no chemistry on stage and their doing alright for themselves.

But will the new lineup match the old-lineup?

the bass/keyboard player and the drummer are leaving the band to start their own group called the Doom somethings. Meanwhile the singer/guitarist Andrew Stockdale is going to continue the group Wolfmother by getting new musicians. personally im hoping he stays within australia with his selections. both bands will release new material at the end of the year. should make for a very interest showdown to see which group will be more successful.

 

reminiscent of metallica's first line up change where guitarist dave mustaine left to create Megadeth and Metallica shot to superstardom whilst megadeth became more of a cult hard rock band selling ONLY 10 million cd's

"bands" like wolfmother and jet are a disgrace
