Powderfinger return.

Everyone's favourite Aussie band return after 2007's 'Dream Days at the Hotel Existence'. 'All of the Dreamers', the first offering from 'The Golden Rule', which is scheduled for release in November, sees them return to a slightly rawer sound, reminiscent of their work on 'Vulture Street' and 'Odyssey Number 5' and sits comfortably alongside tracks such as 'Like A Dog' and '(Baby I Got You) On My Mind'.

I'm really excited about the new album, especially if the rest of it follows the sound of this single. 'Vulture Street' and 'Odyssey Number 5', as well as 'Dream Days...' actually, have quickly become three of my favorite albums. I don't know why they haven't done better over here to be honest with you. After going to Australia and having the radio chuck them at you everywhere you go it's a shame to come back and struggle to even find their albums, let alone hear them on the radio. Hopefully this will be the album that finally establishes them in the UK.
