lyrics are targeted at some discourse the band had re: Ukraine/Russia politics with a tv talk show host, but can be extended to how media is trying to politicize anything and everything
Big fan of The Fixx. Saw them in a nightclub at the Rio in Vegas in 2011. Only about 400 people attended. Didn't matter. Cy and the guys rocked the joint like it was a sold out arena.First new music since 2012?
I don't mind swearing in lyrics. Far from it. But this is just some whiny nonsense... which... in making a song complaining about millennial snowflakes... he's sounding like a millennial snowflake.Kid Rock released a new song, and he is mad at the world. Rather than post a direct link to the video, will post a story with a link to the video, but every other word is an f-bomb or a bad word. It's so cringeworthy that Weird Al weighed in:

KID ROCK's New Video Has A Message For Snowflakes: "Don't Tell Me How To Live"
Kid Rock has returned to his rock roots with his new single, "Don't Tell Me How To Live," while still infusing some of that country swagger his fans have come to know from him in recent years. Rock has been making headlines in recent years for everything but his music – showing up to presidential demetalinjection.net
And a lot of posts on this board!I don't mind swearing in lyrics. Far from it. But this is just some whiny nonsense... which... in making a song complaining about millennial snowflakes... he's sounding like a millennial snowflake.
It's not musically snobbish; it's just common sense.I’m tired of the predictable and certainly non creative gratuitous dropping of F bombs in music. It’s really become commercialized nonsense. The “angry artist” proving he/she has the ”hardcore attitude”. It’s really become a joke to me. You want to impress me? Don’t try so hard. Learn how to play, sing and express yourself in a higher way. If that sounds musically snobbish so be it. We all need and deserve better stuff.

I like that
It's got a good sound. Never heard of them. My home page has a feed to Alternative Press, which provides news on new music, tours, bands, etc. The lead singer of that band has a similar demeanor to Robert Smith from The Cure.I like that
Got to see them warm up for Gojira, excellent band.In case I forgot to post this a while back. Been listening to them quite a bit lately.
How were they live vs their studio work?Got to see them warm up for Gojira, excellent band.
i can't place it, but this reminds me of one of those radio hits from the early 90s.
