That would be another good one, yeah. I do kind of wonder if it’s too soon after Brad Delp’s suicide to talk about, though.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Ooooohhh…
 
Then I would hold that off to avoid being it too soon.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Yeah, especially since that was the last album Delp sang on before his tragic death. (His vocals were posthumously included on the band’s next album, Life, Love & Hope.)
 
Honestly, though, Boston is just kind of a weird band in general. They released their first two albums, which were hits, and then… I dunno, it seems like ever since then, they have to take a ten-year break between releasing each album. And now with Brad gone and no other founding members left in the band, the band is basically nothing more that Tom Scholz and friends.
 
Of course, even from the beginning, Boston was basically just a Tom Scholz solo project.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Boston is still a great band regardless

@ILoveMyoozik  
Hell yeah. That first album was an all-time classic, and their second and third albums also had some great songs.

Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men: “We have the longest running number one song ever”  
Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee: “Aguanten nuestras cervezas”  
Lil Nas X: “Y’all are funny, hold mah keg”

And to add on to that…most of their stuff will be on Spotify and other streaming services this Friday.

Okay, I love the hell out of Skid Row. They’re sincerely one of my favorite glam metal bands, up there with Def Leppard, GNR, and the Crüe.
 
But… what the hell have they been doing since the 2000s?  

What are your thoughts on music critic Anthony Fantano giving Chance The Rapper’s debut album a 0/10?

@Holofan4life
 
Who?

@Mildgyth  
Probably the biggest music critic in the world

@Holofan4life  
I’m going to regret saying this, but why?

@ILoveMyoozik  
Because the album sucks

@Holofan4life  
That’s it, he just thinks that the album sucks?

I think Alan Silvestri is now becoming one of the greatest composer of this decade all thanks to Avengers.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Seriously, this bothers me. Lead singer Sebastian Bach left the band, and now all of a sudden they’ve gone from awesome hair metal to weird progressive metal. And I do like some prog metal, don’t get me wrong, but… no, seriously, how does one go from album titles like Slave to the Grind to ones like United World Rebellion: Chapter Two - Rise of the Damnation Army?

Woodstock 50 Officially Cancelled
 
Okay, who didn’t see this coming?

Okay, I never realized how awesome Janet Jackson’s music is until now. She made the right choice of having Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis as her producers cause damn are their productions great.

DragonForce is going to cover Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On on their upcoming album.

@Count Adramélekh Sear 🎸  
Jesus, that announcement came awfully fast. their new album will apparently be out in September. & now you mention it, i’m curious to see how they’ll do Celine’s MHWGO X3

ToddInTheShadows released his new TrainWreckords video, and it was a pretty good review, damn better than his last review which was way too meanspirited for my tastes.

@Count Adramélekh Sear 🎸  
That’s going to be an… interesting combination.

I finally listened to Madonna’s Music in its entirety a few days ago. Man that was a bad album, definitely her worst. The only good songs are the titular track, “What It Feels Like For a Girl,” “Don’t Tell Me” and her cover of American Pie.  
I’m used to her doing synth-pop, but this was just so boring and generic to listen to

@CalypsoFantasy  
If you think “Music” was a bad album, which kinda was, then oh boy will you not enjoy her next one after that: “American Life”
 
Also coincidentally, those good songs you mentioned are all the singles from it.
