Yeah, we went into the mountains to visit my partner’s grandparents. Listened to a lot of country and folk lol.

I don’t usually listen to much in the way of new music, but I will say that Ethel Cain’s first release this year, Perverts, was a super interesting project. It’s a drone album, so lots of drawn-out, slow, repeating passages, that marry the sound she established on her debut with something even...

I’ve been on vacation! New round tonight, hopefully.

There are a few possibilities for 2027: Mixing and releasing the new Iron Maiden live album. Solo work. New Bruce Dickinson album/tour. New British Lion album/tour. New Smith/Kotzen album/tour. New Dave Murray & the Hawaii 5 O’Clock Quartet album/tour. New Iron Maiden ‘The Trooper’ beer. New...

Rush Permanent Waves (1980) 1. The Spirit of Radio - Permanent Waves hits the ground fucking sprinting with Rush’s second most iconic song. Alex twists around a mind-melding guitar intro before Neil and Geddy jump in to join in the fun. This song is a celebration of music and the radio stations...

As long as it wasn’t the original you are safe from Whamageddon.

Yes! There’s a full list of all the included covers on page 1 so if you see I’ve missed any you can let me know.

Whamageddon begins December 1st bro, anything before that is a gift to us from our lord and savior George Michael.

Rush Hemispheres (1978) 1. Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres - We fall from out of the skies into a world not too different from our own. Bright, sparkling, swirling guitars begin this more grounded sequel to the space oddity we heard on the previous album. The first chapter, "Prelude", is an...

Rush A Farewell to Kings (1977) 1. A Farewell to Kings - A renaissant acoustic intro transports us away from futuristic Canada, instead bringing to mind an England of yore. A very subdued, nostalgic opening for this album. The band delightfully adds in a wispy synth and pretty little bells...

Yeah I instantly thought of you when I made the update lol.

Oh jeez, a tie. If someone could break it that’d be great, otherwise I’m going to have to come up with some wacky hijinks.

Rush All the World's a Stage (1976) Rush collect material from each of their first four albums and pop out their first live record. It's a good first showcase of their power as a live act. The performances are pretty tight and the setlist is mostly made up of classics. "Bastille Day" and...

Rush 2112 (1976) 1. 2112 I. Overture - A spacey sci-fi synth piece opens this behemoth like wind in stardust. Enigmatic, mystifying - and then the band kicks in. Slowly, at first, toying with you, your attention piqued, before taking off into a sprint with the opening riff, mixing distortion...

Prolly updating tonight, top 3 are set but another voter or two could change which one goes to the finals.
