Foo Fighters There Is Nothing Left to Lose

I preferred him as a shy (but great) drummer who stammered phrases in interviews with Nirvana that maybe even he didn’t fully understand. @Boyintheocean: unfortunately, the era of “ironic” music videos for the Foo Fighters started long before with "Big Me," which is from '95. A truly pointless band.

And now for something completely different!

Aerosmith Draw The Line

You did well to specify which of the two brothers wrote this rather mediocre review. The CD in question closes the first phase of Aerosmith after 5 great albums, of which this is definitely the weakest. Here you can see and feel all the negative effects of years of various drug abuse. They will recover from "Done With Mirrors" onwards, but the magic of the '70s will no longer be there.

Motörhead Sacrifice

Of the Motorhead from the 90s, this is one of the best and for me it comes right after "1916," even though the approach of the two works is very different. This one is more compact and aggressive in its brevity, and it has absolute gems like the title track and "Sex & Death," which is currently one of my (many) favorite Motorhead songs.

The value for money is indisputable, but maybe they've also noticed a certain "drop in sales" of CDs in general, and so the move was clever and convenient. "Unfortunately, if the concert lasts 120 minutes and one disc can hold just under 80, the remaining 40 minutes go on the other one." Oh no, because on the second there are only 5 tracks, how can they total 40 minutes... are they going to kick off with psychedelic jams?

In my opinion, the fate they ended up with is exactly what they deserved. I've always seen them as one of those bands that spent more time in front of the mirror fixing their hair and makeup than in the rehearsal room coming up with an idea that was truly original. This CD, according to their expectations, was supposed to launch them definitively, but that didn't happen because people don’t always get fooled so easily. I still prefer "Dark Days" to this, though.

What’s the point of making a double CD when the second disc only has 4 or 5 songs? And then the tracklist leaves a lot to be desired. I get that they couldn’t include all their most famous songs, but there are just too many missing tracks like: "Let Me In," "The Sidewinder Sleeps..," "Leave," "Bittersweet," "World Leader Pretend," "Half A World Away," "Country Feedback," "E Bow The Letter," "Find The River," etc. Let’s fill those 80 minutes of the CD!
