That's The Spirit is one of the best albums I've heard in a long time. Until recently, I hadn't listened to BMTH since Suicide Seasons but I found their new album on Spotify a few weeks ago and I swear I've listened to it at least once a day for 2 weeks straight. True Friends, Throne, Blasphemy, Happy Song, etc... It's a solid album. I'm really digging BMTH's new sound as opposed to previous albums.

In honor of the great David Bowie, the title track from one of his most recent albums...

Used to love BMTH
Their original stuff was awesome, heavy and raw. Then theyou fell off and started that goofy melody singing garbage. I will have to check their new one out...

Same here. Hairs stand up on the back of my neck in the latter part of the song, every time. I'm a huge fan of covers and this is probably my favorite one.
Not sure how to post videos, but some other good covers that come to mind are Shinedown's "Simple Man", Five Finger Death Punch's "House of the Rising Sun", and I, Prevail's "Blank Space". Definitely worth a listen.

even growing up, in the era of Disco and other regrettable music, any time that song came on, I'd FIGHT to keep the radio playing it. For whatever reason, I just love that song - it speaks to me for some unknown reason. And the second I heard this cover version, I bought the album. Good thing you really can't wear out a digital song

I was 17 when Sounds of Silence came out. It was so different from what else was charting. Not unique elements - folk, protest, and beat poets were familiar, but the combination with the ethereal harmonies were stunning.
Most people my age say music today is the pits. I think there is more good stuff out there than ever before. When there was just the Top 40, everyone had a common reference and directional change was obvious. Success was democratic but with few candidates nominated. Now you have to work a bit to filter the awful stuff, but you don't have such powerful gatekeepers deciding what is worth exposure. In this golden age anyone can post their music plus there is more old gold showing up than I can keep up with. Just this week I heard some live Big Bill Broonzy for the first time. (Been an admirer for 45 years) And the guy has been dead for almost 60 years! I am a big fan of live remote recordings where you can hear the stage patter and feel the audience's reaction.
I feel blessed to remember before rock when there was The Hit Parade, the excitement of Elvis in '56 and tracking through to the present. What a long strange trip it"s been.“ When I comes to modern politics, I think the inverse of Hanlon's Razor applies...In other words, "Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice." - Kerplode

I've been listening to A LOT of Opeth lately. Mikael Åkerfeldt is an incredibly versatile and brilliant songwriter. Mild and melodic one moment, heavy and brutal the next.
