Re: B$B quad blu ray
Gotta ask... Have you had an opportunity to check this out? I listened to mine again last night, and I am convinced that this is the pinnacle for this album. Hope all is well!

Re: "Road" - Reviews
I got to say that’s why I hate most record reviews. That guy took about 4 very long paragraphs before he even mentioned the album. He thinks it’s sub par, thats fine but it was like reading a high schooler book report where he had to use at least 2,000 words. Short on substance and long on wind. I ...

Re: "Road" - Reviews
Maybe THIS CLIP will Thrill Your Gorilla. This is the year before Glen joined Alice. Maybe it's even part of the reason Alice wanted him? Either way, this is a great example of his numerous strengths. (The audio is substandard by today's definitions, but his timing is impeccable!)

Re: "Road" - Reviews
Rubbish drum solo? Not good enough? You are absolutely wrong. Opinions are opinions, but that statement is ridiculous. Fair enough, I'm glad you like it. I can only speak from my view, I'm a drummer and its technically not that good and too hap hazard (especially the random hi hat hits)to be in kee...

Re: "Road" - Reviews
I think the album is mid tier again. Better than detroit stories but that album was too incohesive. Top tunes for me are : Dead dont dance - great downtuned beast with a good hook of a chorus Welcome to the show - modern day lock me up (tho obviously not as good) just a great enjoyable rocker, init...

Re: "Road" - Reviews
About the Hellfest 2022 live DVD that comes with most editions of the “Road” album…. Overall, it’s an excellent DVD. The photography really nails the feel of a great AC show. It’s awesome to see each of these musicians in such great form. They each perform wonderfully, both audibly and visibly! Sou...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
First spin... Only knew the first two songs, didn't read any reviews this time, no internet talk, didn't hear any snipets and... I JUST LOVE ROAD! Thanks Alice, Bob and Band! This is the way. Approach the work of artists you care about with as little bias as possible. Don't let yourself be ruined i...

Re: The new expanded KILLER and SCHOOL's OUT
Oh, gosh I'm not musician, Dannorama, so it's really hard for me to say. It's extremely prominent to me throughout. It may be two different things I'm taking about. The cymbals seem way too high in the mix all the way through and there seems to be an effect added during the chorus. The chorus part ...

Re: The new expanded KILLER and SCHOOL's OUT
A few thoughts: The live stuff is very nice. Of the two shows I think I prefer the Mar Y Sol Pop Festival. It's astonishing that it's taken 50 for these concerts to be released. Why in the world would the studio not release a live ACG album during their peak years? Alice should never have stopped u...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
Okay, for what it's worth... I really like it. For reference I thought Paranormal was distinctly average. Not bad or good, just meh... And Detroit Stories was generally pretty poor, with maybe one or two decent tracks. I like this one much more, and already played it more then the previous two! It'...

Re: "Road" - Reviews
Got the orange vinyl coming tomorrow, but I couldn't wait. Bought the iTunes version, and I'm glad I did. Halfway through the album, and I like it very much. Could it be love? I hope so. The production is rich and strong, and Alice sounds great. Lots of good riffs and guitar solos, and it's terrifi...

That was a good review. Looking forward to spinning the new album. PS: Guerilla marketing is a thing. Ask the Rolling Stones.Rod wrote: ↑Wed Aug 23, 2023 9:31 amPositive review for Road:

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
That’s a good point about lead singles. Still, I think it’s a far cry from :30 second teasers and lyrics to every single song. Yes, it’s the new age, and that’s “what the kids want.” Screw them. As far as hurting sales, yes, I believe that some folks may shy away from buying based on the vitriolic ...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
If anything can be taken away from this, it’s the idea that the slow trickle of teasers and songs can be counterproductive. Call me old school, but I’d be willing to wager that a silent release would be better for everyone. There has been a lot of negativity here, and it may wind up hurting sales. ...

Re: Alice says he had nothing to do with "Killer" and "School's Out" remasters
Think of it like it’s ……grape jelly. Just because Alice has his name on the label doesn’t mean he isn’t enlisting others to do their thing. I really don’t see the problem here.

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
I ask anyone here: If you were in charge of a band for over (safely!) ten years, don’t you think the band would develop a sense of you? A certain je ne sais quoi? I’m glad to read the various opinions here. But I’m not sure that the effin PEOPLE making this “garbage” care to see Alice fans whine ab...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023
Holy acrimony! This is not directed at anyone specifically, but… Geez! All of this bitching sounds selfish to me. Maybe it’s as simple as this - He has drifted away from being the rock star that “you” want, and into the rock star that “he” wants. Whatever happened to being a fan? These are good tim...

Re: Michael Bruce inducted into Arizona Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame
The video I saw with Michael when he let the cat out of the bag on a reunion album, he stated that supposedly each song on the album will have a guest guitarist to take the place of Glen. And whatever songs they had written so far were laid down in Phoenix. Hopefully, Steven Crayn is one of them. H...

Is THIS a new image? I have never seen it before. Perhaps it's part of the "Road" press kit?
