patrick wolf owns

wolf parade was okay

can't remember what else there was but i'm sure it was fine

― ciderpress, Sunday, 11 December 2016 17:40 (eight years ago)

Voted the latter option. The mid-2000s were both long enough ago that I've already started to forget a lot of these bands (Wolf Parade, Patrick Wolf, AIDS Wolf and...?) and not long enough ago to be of any historical curiosity yet.

I liked AIDS Wolf and (sometimes) Wolf Eyes. I don't know what Wolf Parade sounded like. I think I heard Patrick Wolf on Radio 2? Sort of sophisticated orchestrated pop? xp

wolf eyes and guitar wolf

can we think of some songs that have the word rain in the title

― Karl Malone, Sunday, 11 December 2016 17:43 (eight years ago)

I never got all that into any of these anyway, though the Wolf Parade spinoff band Handsome Furs did have this one killer track:

First few Patrick Wolf albums were swell

Wait, wait, now I seem to remember having an album by another noisy synth-rock band from Montreal with "wolf" in their name. It's slipping my mind, though.

Oh yeah, Wolves in the Throne Room. I wasn't thinking about metal for some reason.

how is this whole thread not about wolf colonel

Crystal Wolf Diamond Eyes would surely be the band of all bands from the time (if it existed).

― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 11 December 2016 19:22 (eight years ago)

Wolf Alice is 2010s though, so they missed the wave really.

― how's life, Sunday, 11 December 2016 19:27 (eight years ago)

Just enough, I feel. Glad Wolf Eyes are the only one remaining.
