On a related note, and native French speakers correct me if I'm wrong, one might complain about the spelling of Leloublan -- Le loup blanc (The white wolf). It doesn't mean that I would, I believe in artistic license and like word play.

But Zombie Woof is not an option, and when I do such concept polls I prefer it when someone chooses between my options and then can offer another related choice, and also that's a song that references a wolf, whereas in this poll it is all based on the name of the act. There are various songs that reference wolves in my collection that I love.

On to my vote: Toy Symphony gets mine.

And in case I forget on the day, Happy Howloween everyone!

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I observed before. It can be much like that with music for me; immersed in experiencing the moment.

I only knew Etron Fou, but not that song. I ended up voting for Wolve but also liked Wolf People.

About Ulver, I'm not really knowledgeable about them but they evolved a lot over the years.

Sorry about that, Logan.  I was caught up in the spirit of the upcoming US election and did a write-in vote because I didn't know any of the choices you offered.

And although Zomby Woof is a Zappa song, it is also a band from Germany (http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=2389) which is what I was referring to.

No worries, I didn't make this topic. And I have heard of the band Zomby Woof before, but both you and Scott were talking about Zappa in the two posts that preceded mine and I didn't check your link, and got a bit confused. My bad for the assumption and laziness. I see why you would have been talking about Zappa based on the Zomby Woof bio (I'm not as familiar with Zappa as I should be by the way). Scott's mention of poor spelling made me think of the white wolf spelling in Etron Fou Leloublan which made my want to make the Happy Howloween joke. Funnily enough I was just writing something about people who don't pay enough attention to what others post, and then the howler's on me. My bad.

From Allmusic.com -- "Released on the 1973 LP Over-Nite Sensation, Frank Zappa's song "Zomby Woof" is the story of a man who went to sleep and woke up transformed into a "zomby woof," a play on words making him some kind of a zombie/werewolf/dog creature. The transformation was illustrated in the original studio version by the shift in lead vocals from Zappa's calm basso voice to Ricky Lancelotti's "mad lion" roars and Tasmanian Devil-esque energy."
Fair enough...I suppose that I could have/should have included a song from them.  Since this poll is about specific songs and not band's entire catalogues do you have one song in particular that you would recommend?
