  • New Music In Stores & Online 6/24/08: Motley Crue, Three 6 Mafia, Sigur Ros and More!!

    Motley Crue's New Album Saints of Los AngelesWell, there had to be a comedown, right? After a couple weeks of high-wattage major releases, this Tuesday brings a ton of volume, but no real star power, at least from where I stand. You, of course, might feel differently. Here are some of the highlights:

    Motley Crue “Saints of Los Angeles”: Tommy Lee and Pam are back together. Nikki Sixx is now a successful author with a top-selling book and accompanying soundtrack, Mick Mars still seems to be held together with safety pins and spit…and the Crue just keeps on a-rollin’. This one’s getting tons of play on VH-1 Classic (who love them some hair metal), and you can watch the band play these new tunes on their Cruefest tour all summer.

  • Friday Throwback – Rock The Cradle Of Love

    Back when I was watching more MTV than you can shake a stick at, there were so many videos that I saw at least a hundred times. This one specifically I remember, more than I remember the song itself. In fact, I can’t even think about this song without thinking about the video. I may have never heard it without also watching the video at the same time.

    • That’s a pretty sweet computer for 1990.
    • The dude looks like Patrick Dempsey from Can’t Buy Me Love.
    • When she said, “I was wondering if I could play this tape,” he probably thought she meant, “I was wondering if you could wax these drawers.”
    • That dude has a flat screen plasma in 1990!
    • This hot chick is dancing in his apartment and he jumps on the computer. Unless you are getting your web cam ready, that’s a bad move slick.
    • I ain’t nobody’s fool.
    • Making her spill red wine on her shirt was his only good move so far.
    • Ronald from Can’t Buy Me Love is terrible at making moves. Dude, she’s on your bed.
    • Liberace could’ve pulled her better than this dude.

    The girl’s name was Betsy Lynn George if anyone cared. And I already told you who the guy was. Ronald from Can’t Buy Me Love.
