The single sounds okay. Not convincing enough to buy the album on a whim.

The moment "Green Machine" gets a "Part II" with a band that plays desert rock as if it is the last day on earth I am interested.

Wow, I must be showing my age when I say I can't identify with any of these albums as Rock. Gosh, come on Robert Plant and Jimmy Page. Team up again, will ya?

Add Deep Purple too then. Their Mark II and Mark III line up were pretty legendary. Focus should also not be forgotten though...

Opeth Voice Of Treason

DR11. Well done Opeth once again.

HDTracks has a 24/96 copy up now. A very good sounding album (love the music too, though some will feel divided on that).

I don't mind their new direction, but it sounds too similar to what Wilson is doing.

Also Royals by Lorde won VMA Best Rock Video. That's what happened to rock.

MTV has become what a Heineken is to a Chouffe, what grape juice is to a good merlot. MTV is no longer worthy of its name regarding its priorities. Do you even watch MTV? Just stop for your own good.

Bill Hicks' rants about the popular music industry come to mind...
