To my ears and eyes....the went right back to 1997/8. It's a clash between Afraid/Generation Swine and I hear a bit of Enslaved in there too meaning it's SLIGHTLY more melodic and definitely more polished/produced than Swine. Overall though, it felt more like an ad for a video game than a new Motley...

Yep. Unholy was badass, I remember taping the video; my friends and I sharing the VHS back and forth because we loved it so much. Then Revenge comes out and 'Take It Off' is track 2 and we are right back to shitty 80's KISS. I don't know... I think songs like Take it Off and Heart of Chrome ARE Pau...

Same here.

Didn’t like the video but loved the guitar riff!

It’s a strong record. The songs fit well together. Love the production and overall vibe.

Never heard it.

Actually, I see Desmond Child just re-posted that clip but it's actually over a year old. They are well into the 2nd billion by now.

OMG! Strangling the fucking cat!!! My ears!!!!

The entertainment industry is going to get fucked by AI. It's going to ruin everything. Somewhere out there one of my exes is creating an AI version of me and it's going to have all the good parts of my personality. The fun, humor, professionalism, romantic, kind natured, smart and sensitive versio...

Blas is a great drummer although it's been rumored that the first Slaughter record is all drum machine! I wonder if he was ever offered the gig with Vince Neil considering Blando and Dana from Slaughter are in Vince's band. And I think Zoltan actually was drummer for Slaughter for awhile too while B...

Odd timing to release the record as their farewell tour is ending! For sure the Lean Into It record was their most successful but I think it's an odd choice to play it in its entirety for their farewell tour, with no songs from the new album.

The bands will be dead, but the fans will be dead too.... so no one will be around to complain. :lol: It's already happening. Many of the 80's bands discussed here continue on with only 1 or 2 original members. I think Foreigner is the best example of a band continuing on successfully as a touring ...

That would be a C.

Even lip syncing on stage while changing guitars. Even how she held her arm up to the roadie, like "Bro...not now". Joan's too cool.

I don't really like the remastered/updated ones. I get the point of them but all the new footage is done on the cheap compared to the original versions. They don't edit together nicely. The WORST one was the Bret Michaels one where they re-wrote history making it sound like Poison was his solo band ...

Man I hate Tattoo. I think if it was the last song on the album, It might be remembered as a fun goofy song. But being the first new thing we heard from them in 25 years...No. I always liked Tattoo. It reminded me a bit of Sensible Shoes which is one of my favorite DLR songs. I think you're right t...

Jeff Scott Soto.

That's a good one! I say if JSS doesn't work out, they should get Michael Bormann! He might actually be a better fit.

In the great words of Denis Leary...

I'm drunk, I'm nobody.
I'm drunk, I'm famous.
I'm drunk, I'm dead.

They #metoo’d the fuck out of it. Why did they feel the need to make this so interracial? You're a little confused there, chief. #metoo and interracial mixing are different things really. I just meant that they softened it too much. The original was a bunch of rowdy white rednecks in a dive bar. No...

Made some popcorn, cooked some ribs, had some bourbon and beer, watched the original and loved it even more than I remembered. Kept the party going with a viewing of the Stallone masterpiece Over the Top. Man, those guys were cool. Making ribs as we speak and watching the Amazon “remake”. I’m 50 min...

Great band! I'm a Greatest Hits guy when it comes to The Doors but they had a unique sound and Jim's voice and lyrics were amazing. His vocal on "Touch Me" is insane. Especially the "Now I'm gonna love till the heaven's stop the rain" part... Great movie, too! I was about to writ...

I don't think them going public will affect ticket prices. Maybe it will make the site more popular though. Obviously, no one likes inflated prices but Stub Hub has been good for me over the years. Mostly because Ticketmaster sucks so much with their dynamic pricing and official platinum pricing! I ...

Hope Jack is okay. All I hear is good things about him. Sometimes rock singers go through bad phases and recover. Stephen Pearcy comes time mind a few years back when he was going thru some knee issues. Very sad to see this. If he can't perform, stop just stop until you can. Jack's health has been ...

I like making this sometimes, but usually just wing it and it's always good: https://www.raos.com/blogs/recipes/sunday-gravy Got my tomatoes going from seed now. Love making sauce start to finish. i watched a youtube vid where a group of chefs rated commercial sauces and rated rao's the best so i p...

Forget new material. Ace only functions on muscle memory with the old stuff. I feel the same way about Vince Neil. He's been doing the same exact songs the same exact way for so many years. I think his brain goes soft sometimes. That's why he slurs and/or skips over words. I'm sure that's part of t...

Not bad. I'll be honest, I know nothing about these guys other than they're the Bang Go The Bells band. What else is there? "The Kid Goes Wild" ? That first record is awesome! Their last album Revelation HIghway is awesome too song-wise. A lot of the songs, if not all, are actually older ...

I don’t know what Pophouse is and I hate to speak on behalf of anyone else…

But if Mr. Rachelle went out for some Jack in the Box, came home and I gave him a check for $300 million, something tells me he’d be OK with that.

I don’t see anything wrong with this. You’re just jealous!

I’m being sarcastic. I made it through about 5 seconds of that. He is so overly medicated I doubt he even realizes how bad that is.

Danger Danger Under the Gun is one of their many songs that should've been a huge hit. It's like Bon Jovi meets Survivor meets Lionel Richie Running with the Night meets Pat Benatar. It's a classic.

I was not a fan of Nirvana or the grunge scene. But as a young man at the time, I was shocked to see just how tortured these guys really were. It was not an act. Kurt, the AIC guy, Mother Love Bone, STP guy, Soundgarden guy....they ALL killed themselves, right? That's just insane. It happened with J...

Not exactly giving us our money's worth. It's 2024...come on... just give us the Ratt box set already with live tracks and demos. 9 songs? Are they going to keep putting albums like this out even long after we're gone?

Anyone else having this issue? Can’t find any new stuff I really like. Tired of the old stuff I listen to. Rarely listen to music anymore. Haven’t picked up an instrument in months. What do you like? I'm sure people can recommend some other artists to check out. Or maybe just give a new artist a sh...

This pairing actually makes sense because Ann and Robin duetted on “Surrender to Me”. Think they’ll do that one together on tour? That would actually be awesome! Add Loverboy to the tour so they can also do Almost Paradise. And for the 80s trifecta, Robin can do In This Country from the Over the To...
