I didn’t like the last one so I haven’t checked it out.
I really don’t care for the new drummer.

I just found out Page Hamilton played guitar for David Bowie on the Hours tour and I'm very happy that I know this now.
Bowie with heavy/noisy Helmet guitar...yes

The fadeout ending of Van Morrison's Sweet Thing really works.

21 Savage? Deportation could be a good career move. If he gets an album out before he fades out of media coverage.

he just released an album like 4 weeks ago. this is a huge marketing scheme for his new collaboration with Vanillia ICE

I was reading the wiki article on Wes Borland and this bit stuck out to me:
He also blamed his time in Limp Bizkit for difficulty in getting jobs with other acts such as Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson in the past, stating that the other bands didn't want to be associated with his previous band.[34]
That doesn't sound right to me. Wes is a pretty respected guitarist in spite of his past band and I maybe get Trent being a dick about it (see Trent's interviews about letting them use some of his lyrics in that one song) but 2016 Marilyn Manson needed all the help he could get so that's just strange.

Theres a rolling stone article and interview with the lads who played on astral weeks. It’s only a few months back you should look it up. They’re mostly from Boston too.

just saw that post malone grammy´s performance....man, that was embarrassing.....he seems so talentless, but overall it sounds awful. And i dont get the RHCP song at all....whats Malone doing there? he is not playing anything. Just the background vocals in the chorus? And where the fuck is Josh guitar?
So amateurish it hurts.

I watched some of The Grammys.
Miley Cyrus is committing to the no shirt with a jacket thing.
Thankfully there was no Adele. Maybe she will finally shred her vocal cords for good next year.

I think the band for whom there is the widest gap between how intensely I once loved them vs. how much I care to listen to them now is Guns N' Roses. There was a period of about two years, freshman and sophomore year in high school I'd say, where probably 50-60% of my listening was committed to this band; had I been aware of internet forums back then, I would have no doubt showered them with gushing superlatives that I would now be embarrassed to know were preserved via the Wayback Machine. For some reason I felt compelled to listen to "Use Your Illusion I" last night -- I legitimately used to love every single song on this record, but last night almost every single song on it sounded unfathomably and irredeemably terrible ("Don't Cry" and "November Rain" still sound pretty good, and I still seem to have a soft spot for "Bad Apples"). I also made the mistake of reading along with the lyrics -- gadzooks, Axl really comes up with some zingers:
"Sick of this life
Not that you'd care
I'm not the only one
With whom these feelings I share"
"My mother never really said much to me
She was much too young and scared to be
Hell, Freud might say that's what I need
But all I really ever get is greed"
It's remarkable how virtually none of this retains even basic nostalgic appeal for me -- it just sounds really, really bad.

Yo, I stopped actually trying to figure out lyrics years ago and it's made life so much better. It's just an extra instrument.
Plus with all the brick-walling going on you can barely hear them anyway so why bother.
