Some great NEW music.

Yeah, sorry, can't listen to the old stuff anymore, like I said in the other thread -- just sick of it. Someday it will be back.

So, I've found some really good to great new albums released in the past few months. Thought I'd share them.

'What About Now' - Bon Jovi.

The critics were mixed about this one, and it's nothing groundbreaking, pretty typical Bon Jovi stuff. But, I liked it. Won't earn them any Grammy nods, I'm sure, but a good listen during a workout or whatever.

'Golden' - Lady Antebellum.

I really, really like this album. In fact, I really like this group. I'm pretty new to the entire Country thing, and they are far from the old twangy stuff. The best song on this one 'Better Off Now' - a great break-up song.

'Magnetic' - The Goo Goo Dolls.

Another one I loved, and the critics sort of panned -- most of them said it was the same old same old. Which is pretty much is. But, when the same old is good, what's the issue here? I could listen to this all day -- in fact, I have!

So, share ... what have you found recently that you enjoyed?

I think it's just been released. I got my copy by donating to their startup project. I can't link to youtube from here, but I'm sure they've put something up by now. As usual, it's mesmerizing music

And when I want to learn about new bands and cuts, I stream somafm
