	Powderfinger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After two independent EPs released in 1993, they were signed to Polydor and in 1994 released their first album, Parables for Wooden Ears, which charted poorly and failed to launch the band.
		During several TV interviews Bernard Fanning has stated that Powderfinger are currently working on a new album to be released late 2006/ early 2007.

	Vulture Street: triple j music reviews
		I have been a fan of Powderfinger's since Double Allergic and have since bought all of their albums, including their debut studio album Parables for Wooden Ears.
		This self-proclaimed album of "dumb rock" (which i prefer to call a licsence to cliche) is not as big a surprise as some of the hype may suggest.
		It goes back to Parables For Wooden Ears, and Double Allergic, with great strong guitars, and vocals which can be compared to Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, who I'm sure Bernard has no problem being compaired to.

	BBC - h2g2 - Powderfinger - the Band
		In early 1994 the band hit the studio to record what would become their debut album, Parables for Wooden Ears.
		Released in August, Parables was not well received by the critics, gained practically no radio play, and completely failed to fulfil the potential Polydor had invested in.
		At the time of its release, Parables for Wooden Ears was panned as being full of overly-complex arrangements from a band who had become too confident for their own good.

		This page is where we give our interpretation of the lyrics of Powderfinger songs from Parables for Wooden Ears.
		"Parables for wooden ears" - she is telling him stories about other gay guys, cos she suspects he is gay, he won't listen, his pride won't let him admit that he is gay.
		She also uses gay slogans like "closets are for clothes" and stuff like that.

		Having travelled around Australia with Powderfinger playing in my ears, and after seeing them live in The Palace in Melbourne, I could not turn up a chance to meet them in person and try to find out a little more about the band.
		They've been together since '92, when they were formed in Brisbane Australia, but they have known each other for longer.
		So, after four albums, "Parables for Wooden Ears", "Double Allergic", "Internationalist", and now "Odyssey Number Five", sold out tours, awards coming out of their ears, now a tour of Ireland and Britain, things just keep getting better for Powderfinger.

		DARREN: Nick basically brings like an outside ear to the band, he's not as close to the songs as we are so he can help us take things in directions that we might not have thought of.
		And since Nick worked with us on the last album, there wasn't much of a settling in period, we just got in to the studio and clicked straight away.
		On Parables for example, Coggsy (drums) seemed keen on playing the most complex drum lines he could.

		They went into the recording studio too fast and it was a rookie mistake basically.
		"Parables For Wooden Ears" has the influences of the times it was recorded in (early 1990s) with bands like Pearl Jam and Soundgarden prominent in the sound Powderfinger produce here.
		It's not all awful, songs like "Save Your Skin" and "Sink Low" are well-written, mellow, mainly acoustic tracks that still sound good today nearly ten years later.

		POWDERFINGER, courted by several major labels, signed to the Polydor label for the debut 'Parables For Wooden Ears' album released in August of 1994.
		However, their promising start would be stifled by a swathe of bad reviews and the record's sales were so low Polydor, it is mooted, even considered dropping the band.
