The Rolling Stones: Foreign Tongues (Album of the Week)

Jesus fucking Christ...The Rolling Stones. I was blown away by their 2023 return to form, Hackney Diamonds. Apparently that was a massive tone setter because their latest record, Foreign Tongues, is even better. 

It is shovel to the head stunning to me that these octogenarians are making music like it's 1972. 

Opening track...

The magical hooks...conjuring...

And it wouldn't be a Stones album with some Mick falsetto...

Folks these are just the first three songs of fourteen complete fucking gems. Get this album in heavy rotation immediately. The Stones still have it. Big Time!

The new Switchfoot album is called Forever Now and it kicks all kinds of rock and roll ass. It grabs you immediately with the opening track and launches you into bombastic lucidity. Thank God!

Muse: The Wow! Signal (Album of the Week)

Muse is back. And my head is now fully removed from my body, once again, by this ridiculously awesome band from Teignmouth, Devon. The words "POWER" and "GLORY" are at dragon level on The Wow! Signal. The record will hit your heart and soul like the most gentle sledgehammer known to personkind.

Let's start with the opening track...

Jesus Marimba, the wind is blowing in my hair and I'm bald.

Later we get this kick ass track.

The album closes with our heart strings being pulled ever so magnificently...

Muse are titans of awesomeness. Let us all bow before them!

Madonna: CONFESSIONS II

If there was ever any doubt that Madonna was no longer a total fucking force of nature, one need only look at her over five million views on her video for "I Feel So Free." Her latest is Confessions II, a sequel to her 2005 album Confessions on a Dance Floor. This record is a shovel to the head stunner. 16 songs of pure Madonna.

Butthole Surfers: After The Astronaut

It's refreshing for all of us that Butthole Surfers are still active in their now fifth decade of making music. In many ways, they defined what "alternative" rock is and their latest is a great example of this. After The Astronaut is a stellar record that you need in your collection immediately.

Witness!
