Happy Friday!! And you made it another week, good for you. We have a ton of new releases for you this week. In fact, Frontiers Records thought you need some new albums so they are releasing a whopping total of at least 9 albums that I have listed. I have complained about them in the past as I don’t understand how they can release so many albums on the same day. No ones wallet can handle that. It doesn’t seem fair to me or the artists because people will have to choose which one they want to buy as there artists are some what the same type of genre. Now, I guess I am kidding myself because most people stream and not buy, but still the point has been made. No more rambling on and on. I only have one I’m interested in hearing this week and it is marked in Blue. There a couple my kids might be interested in so they are up after my choice and then there are at least 23 more to choose from so hopefully you will find something. Let me know what you want to hear and what I may have missed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!!
Rob Zombie – The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy – (Nuclear Blast): Rob Zombie is back and John 5 is still in tow on guitar. I will admit, I like Rob, but I am a huge fan of John 5 so that is the main reason I want to hear this is so I can see what new insane stuff Mr. 5 pulls out of his hat. Crank It MutherF###er!!
The ones my kids might be streaming…
Nick Jonas – Spaceman – (Island Records / UMG): One third of the famous boy/brother band the Jonas Brothers, Nick is back with a new solo album. After a successful turn with his brothers, he is ready to go back out on his own. I am sure this will be played in my house a little so not much I am going to be able to do about it (maybe I could shut off their internet access…that’s an idea!!)
Selena Gomez – Revelacion E.P. – (Interscope Records): Selena Gomez is bringing us her first ever Spanish Language album. Good on her. This is an E.P. so not a full album, but still cool to see her embrace her heritage. Good luck with this one young lady!!

2 Loud 2 Old Music 
Joshua Bassett released an EP? Interesting! I haven’t listened to his music, but I know he used to date his co-star from High School Musical The Musical The Series (annoying title), then he cheated on her with Sabrina Carpenter (or something like that). Stuff like that makes me thankful I don’t pay much attention to pop music anymore, haha.

Im lucky, my teen boy is very into radiohead, Nirvana, and Joy Division. We therefore have a harmonious household. He still looks at my velvet underground collection with a vague sneer, we do not share the same love of Lou Reed. He does not seem to dig Patti either, but it could be worse! I am so glad you are free of the Jonas brothers!

If a record label was releasing 9 albums on one day back in the 80s I would have had to start shoplifting back than to keep up. That’s crazy..

Ronnie Romero is making a career out of trying to fill Joe Lynn Turner’s shoes.

this is how I feel too. Love Turner. I think Romero loses in the end. Feels a bit unclear what he’s aiming for. Cannot be 2nd rate Turner. That being said I really liked him in Rainbow and thought it was amazing that they finally toured and I got to see them too. Never saw the original Rainbow.

Joe’s underrated because he’s almost always the replacement guy, and not usually the first replacement guy either! I’m surprised he’s never been in Sabbath!
He is on the best Yngwie album though.
