Petrolhead is the third studio album by Australian musician Ian Moss. The album was a departure from Ian's previous albums with Moss saying β€œit was a conscious decision to get back to something I was always happy doing. The result is tough, ballsy blues meets rock...plenty of heart, alive and kicking.”[1]

Reception

Australian musicologist Ian McFarlane declared it was "his best-ever album ... [by] a down'n'dirty blues-rock outfit ... with gritty, hard-edged tracks ... [and] finely honed guitar work".[2]
