	Powderfinger : Vulture Street - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Flaunting a highly accessible sound with nods toward folk-rock (the band's name refers to a Neil Young song), as well as slight psychedelic touches, Powderfinger comfortably serves up classic rock sounds in a smooth modern rock package.
		Vulture Street should make significant inroads for Powderfinger into the American market, as the band more comfortably settles into midtempo bluesy rock than on past releases.
		This band doesn't exactly reinvent the wheel, but nonetheless melds its various influences skillfully, creating an entirely radio-friendly rock sound that should appeal to classic and modern rock listeners alike.

		I was first introdued to Powderfinger from my Uni mate from Australia who introduced me to "My Happiness", since then my liking for Powderfinger has increased immensely.
		This album has a great diverse feel to it, has more rock tunes than Odyssey but still class tunes, just purchased Parables and Internationalist too, and they are up to their incredibly high standards to.
		To be fair there would be nothing wrong with that, but this album shows off Powderfinger's diversity and ability.
