In 2004 Wolfmother began appearing at several high profile music events, such as Homebake and the Big Day Out. They also released their debut self-titled EP through Modular Recordings.
In 2005 the band made their way to Los Angeles, working alongside producer Dave Sardy (of Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Marilyn Manson, and Oasis fame) to record their self-titled debut album, released in October 2005.
In 2006 Wolfmother dominated the Australian Recording Industry Association awards (ARIAs), taking Best Breakthrough Album, Best Rock Album, and Best Group.
In August 2008, after headlining the Splendour in the Grass festival in Byron Bay, Australia, bass/keyboard player Chris Ross and drummer Myles Heskett resigned, leaving just singer/guitarist Andrew Stockdale. Andrew planned to find new musicians before recording another album.
From February 2009 the new line up appeared in two secret gigs under the name Whitefeather. The band officially consists of Dave Atkins on drums, Ian Peres on bass and organ, and Aidan Nemeth as the surprise fourth member and a new guitarist. The new line up's first album, Cosmic Egg, was released in 2009.
Now drummer Dave Atkins has decided to leave the band to spend more time at home with his family; he will be temporarily be replaced by The Mooney Suzuki and Har Mar Superstar drummer Will Rockwell-Scott.

Wolfmother Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I said, what did you see girl on the love train now
Said, I gotta get back girl on the love train, oh
Said, I gotta get back girl on the love train, oh
[Repeat: x2]
I saw different faces and different places
I gotta get back girl on the love train, oh
What'd you see girl on the love train?
Said different luck is with no name
Tellin' me all things are the same
I said I gotta get back girl on the love train
[Repeat: x3]
I saw different faces and different places
I gotta get back girl on the love train, oh
[Repeat: x9]
Love
Train is a song by the Australian rock band Wolfmother, which was released in 2004 as the band's debut single. The song is laden with a psychedelic rock sound, and the lyrics are very evocative of the '60s and '70s rock era. The verses of the song express the singer's desire to get back on the love train, an idyllic vehicle that represents his nostalgia for a time when love, peace, and unity reigned supreme. He asks the girl what she sees on the love train, and she responds that she sees different faces and places. The chorus then repeats the phrase "I gotta get back girl on the love train" four times, emphasizing the song's central message of the need to return to the era of peace and love.
The song's lyrics are intriguing in that they are not easy to interpret in a straightforward manner. The love train could be seen as a metaphor for the journey of life, and the different faces and places represent the different people and experiences that one encounters. Alternatively, the love train could be symbolic of a spiritual quest, with the singer yearning to return to a state of enlightenment and inner peace that he once experienced. Whatever the interpretation, the song's lyrics are powerful in their evocation of a time when things were simpler, more peaceful, and more loving.
