wm.allaccess.com/allaccess/tvonwolf.wmaIt was weird seeing the video for this song get played between Fergie's "Fergalicious" and Akon's "I Wanna Fuck You" on MTV. I think they are part of that Discover & Download thing because MTV would never be nice enough and play a video from such an underground band. The song is decent enough I guess, not really my cup of tea.

Haven't seen the video, but I like the song. I've been meaning to pick up the album, I'll check out some of the other tracks first.

This summer I finally got around to familiarizing myself with their first EP/album that a friend of mine burned off for me two years ago (along with a lot of other stuff). I liked their music a lot more than I was expecting to. It's fascinating.
This was played in our store a couple times the other day...when I was there, at least. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to actively listen to any of it, so I may as well have not even heard it yet.

The album is really great, but this is by far the most accessible track on it.
The band was excellent on the NIN/Bauhaus tour.

"Return to Cookie Mountain" is easily one of the best albums of the year. I am glad that MTV is playing "Wolf Like Me".

I found out they're playing it because of "The Drop" on MTV2.
Whatever the excuse is, it's a welcome one!

Strangely, this doesn't officially impact 'til mid February. Perhaps they are waiting for the MTV exposure to kick in?

The chanting sounds a little too much like Kings of Leon, but I want to like it because they were essentially hand-picked by Reznor last summer. I hear the electronica, but I can't get that God-awful Kings of Leon vibe out of my head...

This has grown on me , but imo the album as a whole isn't as consistent. Maybe that will grow on me , too...

According to allaccess this finally goes for adds next tuesday. Let's hope many stations give this a chance. Definitely deserves top30 success.
