@ozzy
Yes I have the latest album
Agreed it is obviously not on par with classic Styx but still worth a spin for sure.
Same as the 2 latest Uriah Heep albums, very different from classic Heep but still hell yeah!
|
When Legends Rise.... Godsmack
|
Pretty much a live music fest all weekend for myself and my daughter.
Its Rockville time!
Google it to see the artists! |
@slaw
Spot on with the avatar.
I can highly recommend their new album, its songs are maybe a bit more catchy, crafted with hooks rather than some of their earlier stuff but very well recorded.
My daughter is doing all 3 days of Rockville, this ol fart can only manage Sat!
I do not have catfish rising on vinyl, yet! |
Freshly cleaned original copy of 2112, yes the one by Rush not Styx......lol
This was a bargain bin $1 purchase that needed a lot of cleaning work but now it really sounds good with just a very few odd clicks and pops. Never give up on vinyl, you can ressurect just about most of them. |
Today's live that I will be catching at Rockville.
Red Sun Rising
Sevendust
Breaking Benjamin
Stone Sour
Avenged Sevenfold
What an overdose of hard rock!

But for something a little lighter before we leave for Rockville.

Sunburned, bit dehydrated and foot weary but a totally awesome day!

stereo5
Unfortunately I have to agree on the new Shinedown album SQ, terrible mastering all round.
A real shame as there are some killer tracks on it later into it if you can sit and suffer...lol
We are huge fans and have seen them live 4 times, my opinion is that this album is a LOT better than the last one, although that is not much of a compliment I know.
Stick with it, it does get better....
|
All great bands whiz, especially Riverside, very underrated Polish band.
Infinity ..... Journey
Clean original vinyl |
stereo5
If it helps any I could not stand listening to attention attention on my main rig at all.
It did not sound too bad playing via Tidal on my phone transmitted to the car stereo via Bluetooth! Seemed to take the harshness out of it! |
This album title ALWAYS cracks me up.
You can tune a piano but you can't tuna fish..... Reo Speedwagon |
