Nothing here for me but there are reissues from Thin Lizzy, Deicide and UFO that I have bought. I think these are my first “release day” purchases of the year.

That Thin Lizzy one looks great, but I don’t show it until next week on Amazon.

Must be earlier release in the UK then. Mine is arriving today.

Isn’t Lizzy out this week? I saw some people received them already. Mine is on pre-order.

Amazon doesn’t show the Lizzy until next week, but I thought the digital version had been out. This didn’t show up on any of my places I get new releases from.

I’ve seen a guy with a physical copy already.

I have as well. Our Amazon store doesn’t have it available yet so he didn’t get it from them.

Mine doesn’t have a delivery date which is typical of Amazon.ca

The three tracks I heard from Kerns are good straight ahead rock. I have the Lizzy added from Apple as I bought the Live And Dangerous on vinyl back in October…
thanks for this Sir!

Todd Kerns has one of the better rock voices out there. I’ve heard that the voice has aged well too. I might just check that one out.

Given that rock doesn’t seem to have much impact on the charts these days, I’m surprised by the ongoing prodigious output of rock music. I guess many of these rock & hard rock bands have their core base of loyal fans. I love Måneskin, and am happy to see them continue to gain popularity in the U.S.

Rock might be dead on the radio, but for touring and such, there is still a huge, viable market of diehards.

Nothing I’d rush out and buy, a handful I’ll probably check out a bit. Katatonia being the main one.
