I was listening to it Yesterday. Pretty cool song. Getting some Tool vibes.

what would you say is the rock album of 2021? Big names like Kings of Leon and Foo Fighters put out rather meh albums (at least for me, although for some reason FF are nominated for multiple Grammy's), Typhoons from Royal Blood was rather good, but I guess my favorite was "I don't live here anymore" from The War on Drugs. Surely I missed something good, any rock albums you'd recommend from 2021?

With FF you know what you’re getting every time: a few good songs and a bunch of fillers. I can’t recall any really good “rock” record this year except the one you already mentioned by War on Drugs.

But if we cross over into other genres my 3 favorites of the year were Talk Memory by Badbadnotgood, An Evening with Silk Sonic by Silk Sonic and Daddy’s home by St. Vincent.

Fuck Covid, its even robbing us of good rock albums

And there goes another one.

Gary Brooker from Procol Harum has passed away.

There wouldn’t be prog rock as we know had it not been for A Whiter Shade of Pale. It changed the game. RIP.

Damn, Mark Lanegan from Screaming Trees/Queens of The Stone Age died today too.

From all the major acts from Seattle Eddie Vedder is the only singer still alive.

I just read it. I’m in shock. Some friends went last Sunday to see Foo Fighter and I was like “tomorrow I have too much work” and missed it

OMG How Dave should feel right now? Another one

Dave almost quit music after Kurt I think this might be it now. So sad. 50 years old

Yes, he's been revisiting so many things, open issues. So sad, Foo were awesome and Dave is a god among us, if he retires and considering how close is Hetfield too, it would be the end for me

Poor Ozzy... he's going all Diane Feinstein and thinks that telling people that Randy Rhoads is dead is news.
