Richard Kingsmill, Music Director at Triple J and head of the J Award judging panel, said "To put it simply, Wolfmother released the most exciting album of the year. It combines a lot of different influences which sound contemporary, fun and refreshing today. People have paid out on them for being retro. I'd like to remind everyone that Led Zeppelin were criticised early in their career for stealing from blues greats, as were the Rolling Stones, and Dylan was seen as a Woody Guthrie imitator when he started out. So hopefully Wolfmother are also now off to a highly successful career!"[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
