A bit sad how messy he has been. Hopefully he gets some help. His timeline matches up well with Jani Lane - have commercial success then play nostalgia circuit for 20 years and have sloppy on stage appearances before succumbing to your addictions.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑13 Oct 2021, 9:11amThoughts and prayers to the usual suspects in this thread: https://www.avclub.com/smash-mouth-sing ... 1847847444
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Follow up: Saxon released an album 2021 and Powerman 5000 released an album in 2020.Wolter wrote: ↑13 Sep 2016, 11:31amIt is always weird to learn some bands are still together and touring. Like, Saxon basically releases a solid album of traditional heavy metal every couple of years and tours to apparently decent sized crowds. And it's not like they were ever really a major act beyond NWOBHM fans.matedog wrote:The bit about Sister Hazel releasing a new album reminded me of something I found out last week: Powerman 5000 has consistently released albums every two or three years since 1994.

I don't remember this getting any kind of radio or MTV play but man this is a fun song:
It immediately grabs you from the opening riff. "In the Meantime" is a classic in my books and I'm glad to find out they had some other solid tunes.

Re: Hey Flex (All Encompassing 90's Glorification)
I kinda liked that back in the day—it caught my ear because it sampled Penguin Cafe Orchestra's "Telephone and Rubber Band" (which I only knew as the closing song of Talk Radio—but listening to it now, it seems like firm dad rock. It ain't awful, but I sorta winced.
