The Viewfinder: Lionel Richie (and Shania Twain) Reprise “Endless Love”
An album of Lionel Richie covering his song with a gaggle of country artists might be a little on the lazy side, but from a marketing standpoint, it’s an excellent idea…and something Lionel should have done ten years ago. Better late than never, I suppose. Lionel’s southern roots lend themselves well to country…I mean, how much more ‘Bama can you get than Tuskegee, right? Of course, Lionel’s dipped his pinky toe in that genre many times over the years. From […]

Spin Cycle: Buck Satan & The 666 Shooters’ “Bikers Welcome! Ladies Drink Free!”
I can’t believe that I am sitting here typing about an Al Jourgensen country album. Part of me can’t believe the debut from Jourgensen’s country alter-ego Buck Satan is finally available while another part of me can’t believe AL JOURGENSEN MADE A COUNTRY ALBUM!

An interesting cast of old reliables and young bucks stepped up to the plate and delivered this year, and there were also a couple of noteworthy comebacks and collaborations. Initially, I had these albums ranked, […]

The Popblerd Chart Report 10/20/11: People Still Like Evanescence, Apparently
Absence may not necessarily make the heart grow fonder, but being away apparently doesn’t mean your fans totally forget you. What brings me to this conclusion? The fact that after a lengthy absence, Evanescence bows atop the Billboard album chart with their self-titled third album. Amy Lee and…and…who the hell else is in Evanescence these days?…bow with 127,000 copies sold. It’s a far cry from the 447,000 that greeted their last album, The Open Door five years ago, but it’s […]
