Can't look any worse for wear than this video from 40 years ago.

(This video is fantastic. Great to watch musicians really enjoying their work.)

Alex Lifeson returns with Envy Of None and streams new song Liar
RUSH guitarist Alex Lifeson announces his new band Envy of None will release their self-titled debut album on 8 April.

so about the Liar track… um, yeah.  i like the driving synth vibe, the heavy + dark + female wails gives it an evanescence vibe.  but goddamn this makes me miss Neil: not only are the drums a non-entuty (likely programmed), but the lyrics - DEAR GOD.  did they get a heart-broken 14 year old to write them?  they unfortunately compounded the problem on themselves by releasing a LYRIC VIDEO… why?!?


(and yes, ian anderson is still alive)

I guess he is not too old to rock and roll and is still too young to die.

Weezer:
Not content with releasing two albums in 2021 (OK Human and Van Weezer), the band are set to release a set of four in 2022 and, like a rock Vivaldi, each will have its own seasonal theme. Speaking on Good Morning America in the summer, frontman Rivers Cuomo revealed, “I guess I’ve had a lot of time on my hands so I wrote four albums that we’ll put out next year. It’s called Seasons, and each album comes out on the first day of the season. Spring is kind of like happy chill. And then we move through to dance rock, like a Strokes-style album for the fall, and then sad acoustic, Elliott Smith-style for winter.”

We are through the looking glass here, people.

The Van Weezer album has been listened to a lot of late, so much fun…
