very fun album, lots of catchy tunes. And on top of that a blast from the past bringing back Samantha Fox

Don't give up on them yet.

New song ' Don't Give Up On Us'. 

 

 

Don't Give Up On Us is a good song!

overall I liked the album, at least a strong 6 or even a 7. 

United We Stand, Together We Run, Live to Love Again, The Way We Used to Be, Don't Go are some other standouts imho

However The Hunt, was excellent. Go watch that one immediately.

 

 yeah The Hunt is very fun

I watched Ghosts of War (2020), WWII supernatural horror with a weird twist at the end, but overall it's ok. It had a little different plot from another recent WWII horror movie Overlord (2018)

A couple of 'one hitters' that I still enjoy every now and then:

 

two of them says unavailable, what are the names of songs and aritsts?

this one from their last album is nice, starts out slow but it builds up

My Own Soul's Warning

Dance Macabre sounds like some old 80's song, very catchy and fun

good band!

nice track, good to see them back. 

yeah very good mhr, I was just listening to some songs from their debut

this also, Kylie brings Disco back

Kylie Minogue - Magic (2020)

What bands/songs are your guilty pleasure that is outside the realm of AOR/Hard Rock?

One of my is LETTERS TO CLEO from Boston, MA.

Got hooked on the song "Here & Now" from one of those 90's shows like Melrose Place.

Some of my other favorites:

i don't know if I would consider Letters to Cleo a "guilty pleasure", I guess only because they're outside of AOR/Hard Rock and are part of 90's grunge era. I guess I like some Soundgarden,  The Sundays,Cranberries, Matchbox Twenty.... that would be along the same lines

now this is a guilty pleasure and it rocks in a different way 

Baltimora - Tarzan Boy

pretty catchy rock from Denmark, I like this song

Volbeat - Last Day Under the Sun (2019)

new 2020 song is called Atlas Falls, pretty pop sounding ballad

Write far better songs for a start 

to me it just seems Nickelback became scapegoats for backlash against that particular commercial rock sound of that time

Agree with all of the above - I would have to say Nickelback also. For a band that seems fairly universally disliked, they have released some killer stadium rockers and big ballads. Awesome live and Dark Horse sounds a million dollars. Great band. 

never really understood why so much hate towards Nickelback and why people pick on them?

what did they do different from other similar post-grunge bands around that time, like 3 Doors Down, Hoobastank, Creed, Lifehouse etc

I just read that the songwriter of Mental as Anything Andrew "Greedy" Smith passed away in 2019, very sad. RIP

Greedy is the songwriter of this 80's classic

Live It Up

new song from the upcoming album

Caution (2020)

this band makes me think of the 90's, nice to see them still releasing material

Collective Soul - Right as Rain (2019)

Sad Café. Nice American AOR/POP band!!!

actually they're British...

nice track, never heard it before, thank you

this was everywhere in early 2000's and a pretty obvious choice for me,  almost 20 years ago so maybe not so "modern" anymore but song has a nostalgic feel.... the comment on Youtube about voice and puberty made me smile also

The Calling - Wherever you will go

Does anyone know or care they released a new disc in 2012?

and since then there was a 2015 release, interesting to note singer Jude Cole is a co-writer on some of their songs

Hurricane

Dizzy Mizz Lizzy - California Rain

haven't heard Garbage in a while, didn't know they had an album in 2016. I felt like some darker rock, a nice tune for that style. Went back and also listened to some of their older stuff that was on the radio back them, like Only Happy When it Rains, Queer, Stupid Girl

Garbage - Magnetized

Is that guy from Vertical Horizon Matt Scannell in the Front Row Seat video?

pretty engaging tracks, I like

Saybia is soft alt-rock, but I think The Second You Sleep should have been a bigger international hit...

Saybia - The second you sleep

Saybia - The day after tomorrow
