Hospitality. For the song, “The Birthday’ alone, it shoulda at least cracked honorable mention (which is kinda dumb anyway when you’re only dealing with 5 months) Ya either make the top 25…or ya don’t!
Wait a sec, I like ‘Two Step” by DMB…that’s gotta be the same as dub step only its from the 90′s. ya know, we CAN all get along. Group hug.
Holy shit this looks even better than I expected…what a year for film this is going to be. This clip reeks of Oscar. Yeah, I’d say Joaquin is back. Finally, PTA!
Man, this board must be sooooo young. Seriously, I remember where I was when I heard Under the Table Dreaming…it was an extremely great jam record. Now, I don’t listen to these guys anymore and thats only cuz music tatse change, but is it supposed to be cool or something to trash a band that broke through? Seriously, all you snot nosed self proclaimed pompous asses who are workin part time to support your Taco Bell Dorito taco habit….GO BACK TO YOUR DUB STEP
The break in the middle reminds me of the one of the many incredible changes in ‘Wait for Summer.’ Hoping they get back to those very cool hooks from earlier albums on this go round.
By far the only bright spot from SNL this week…
Ya know…this is actually not a bad list! I mean, yes, we could all go down the “They left out….blank” road but that’s why we’re all here and love music so much. I will say this, when these guys were putting together this list and had to duck out for a beer break, I think my former high school girlfriend snuck in and dropped a Bon Jovi song in the top 20 when no one was looking. Damn her. Damn her tah Hell…
Ok, so let me get this straight…your premature evaluation is that its basically too premature to evaluate? My head hurts.
The 25 best things in rock right now, according to Rolling Stone:
1. Selling out is the new cool
2. ITunes updates
3. Adele is in the studio
4. Following Axl on Twitter
5. Jann Wenner shaves
6. American Idol
7. The new 100 greatest songs of all time, not the old 100, or the 100 before that
8. Stadium Rock.
9. Justin Timberlakes new tequila
10. Pink Floyd is getting back together!! Wait. Nope
11 The Grammys! Yaay!!
12 Rhianna on a beach
13 Bruces new 5 star album again. Better than Nebraska, we swear.
14 Whats cool about Spin Magazine? Ok now do the opposite.
15 RS exclusive: Lady Antebellum covers Stairway to Heaven. Awesome!
16 Whats cool in 2012…lets ask Skrillex
17 Radiohead on our cover
18 Monsters of Rock is happening people.

Comment of the week.
Have not heard it but didn’t need to read much beyond “Teen Dream II” to make me feel all warm and Beach House fuzzy inside….sounds like my summer soundtrack will arrive on May 15th.
Neil Young is way to ridiculous a comparison, but you could argue REM in its early stages.
The Evil Empire, Apple, swooped in and bought Lala because I’m sure they saw it as a slight threat to them, so simply absorbed them like a quick inhale..
Ironically, I bought more albums after having the ability to give them a listen first as opposed to the 30 second sample morphine drip..
Yet again, when classic rock starts to erode like Kodak and the digital age, along comes our Boss to add water to its dry roots…
These two are scary good when they control their chaos…getting tighter, too, which is a refreshing direction when it comes to releasing a sophmore album
I expected some refreshing and new but with the old grit. Not a 57 year old lead singer boppin around like he’s recording a new video for ‘Jump’ with a rock God guitarist who looks like he just pulled another tooth out with pliers cuz he and his brother just downed another case of PBR.
I totally agree with the heavy-hearted post above. I really am hoping for one last fun romp from these boys cuz they are really the first band that (besides the Stones, of course) opened my ears to the glory of rock. Christ, Eddie was the reason I started smoking! But, as you grow up you realize the obvious…smoking is bad for you and corporate funded youth starved reunions are, too.
They should have just taken it down a notch and recorded a nice gritty, bluesy album with the trademark sounds of Roth and Eddies guitar whirls and blippy fretting in and throughout. Instead, they’re parading around in a video like MTV’s debuted their video on Headbangers Ball with Ricky Rachtman. Its quite sad…
There was a naughty seediness to ‘House,’ a dirty air about it like rubber-neckin on a highway while you’re passing a wrecked car. I agree with ya as well. This ones lettin the pop come in and it seems like his popularity is warping what he originally set out to do
Comeback album? This album is as ferocious as every other one they have made…a true treat for longtime fans. Thank you so much B-Boyz
Agreed. No artist should talk shit about another artist…keep your electro trap shut. Done with him based on principle alone.
