Re: New Collective Soul - Mothers Love
Music sounds like self titled 95. The vocals are good too. Lyrics are terrible. Agree on this. The lyrics just seem to be nothing. I mean, there's hardly any in the verses. Apparently the last two records was supposed to be a double album, but he was talked into releasing them separately, supposedl...

Re: The Daily Adventures of Mixerman
Was a great blog/forum. I ended up buying the book. I did too... I didn't think that the book was going to be 95% of the blog content. The only difference being the final chapter. I dunno.... I guess I was hoping for something more in-depth. I have to wonder if the band in question was ever outed. ...

Re: How are Steelheart these days?
The voice is still amazing.
The songs are utter crap. They may as well have been Bryan Adams songs.
That voice sold the band back in the day.

Re: Do you appreciate Nickleback more in 2024
I liked their first couple albums, but like many bands they figured out their 'sound' and didn't deviate from it so it all got a little formulaic after a while It got VERY formulaic. It also didn't help that they went from tackling serious subject matter on the first couple records. to becoming a d...

Re: Bon Jovi - Legendary
At least he sounds better than anything on the last record.
Otherwise, it's just like every single since "Lost Highway"... at best it's mid.
2020 would have worked better if it was a Tom Waits style folk rock record.

It stretches the definition of rock, but "Heat Waves" by Glass Animals went to #1 in 2022. They're described as a "British indie rock band" by Wikipedia. just listened. I'm willing to bend pretty far to what young people doing what they want with music, but this is flat out pop ...

The album had a handful of decent ballads. John Waite could always be counted on to deliver a good-to-great love song. Backlash basically sounds like a band falling apart as it plays. The tunes are retreads of everything that worked on the first album, even down to the Diane Warren-assisted ballad. ...

It doesn't surprise me if Promo CDs of either the RAC or the TV In Flames albums outnumber actual retail copies.
By all appearances, both albums were released straight to cutout bins.
