REO Speedwagon isn't a power pop band probably, but they operate so much within the same realm of big guitars + big melodies that I wouldn't be mad if you called them one. They are like a cousin to power pop.

"Amalthea (Bringing the Noise)" is the first teaser track from the upcoming Skylark Duquesne project dedicated to the moons of Jupiter, "All These Worlds are Yours".
One version of the myth of Amalthea hiding the baby Zeus from a vengeful tyrant made me think of the brave drummers at the hotels of ICE agents.
Any funds I receive (net of fees) from the sale of this single track in 2026 will be donated to Casa San Jose in Pittsburgh.

Re-upping my rock opera, "Selena and the Lighthouse Keeper" about a revolution against extractionist fascists on the moon. I remixed this in 2024, not realizing that we might need these spirits again so soon.
"Alpha Dome City" is my try at arena rock. What do you think?

On a friend's suggestion I checked out the #powerpop album by the supergroup Tinted Windows. Adam from Fountains of Wayne, Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick, James Iha of the Smashing Pumpkins, and Taylor Hanson together just tossing off modern power pop classics with total ease and poise. It is a great record, I wish they'd have recorded more.

I will admit the irony of me being a commie who is a big fan of some of the most cravenly capitalist artists in history like Kiss (currently playing Destroyer on my JBL speaker) and Jimmy Buffett, I must reconcile my fandoms and ideology from time to time.
Not just in music, like did you know that Robert Stack from Unsolved Mysteries was a life long, card carrying Republican? :(

Thunderor unleash new single “Pump Up The Volume”
Canadian heavy metal outfit Thunderor, led by JJ Tartaglia (vocals, drums, Skull Fist) and Jonny Nesta (guitar, formerly of Skull Fist), with Brycen Gunn on bass, have unleashed their electrifying new single “Pump Up The Volume.” This track marks the first preview of their forthcoming second album Bleed For It, scheduled for release in March 2026. Known for their signature blend of arena rock, opera, and heavy metal, Thunderor deliver soaring vocals, powerful choruses, and an energy that encourages fans to embrace life with passion and courage.
The single also serves as the opening number for Thunderor The Musical, the band’s ambitious rock opera that debuted at the Toronto Fringe Festival in 2025. The promotional video even features a cameo appearance from Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, adding a unique touch to the release.
“This one is a lot of fun. Turn up the music, pump up your life, Pump Up The Volume! It’s also the opening number for the Musical, and it sets the mood nicely. Although the rest of the album ventures to many different places. Special thanks to Olivia Chow and the City of Toronto for her cameo in the promo clip, super cool.” – JJ Tartaglia

Following their acclaimed debut, Thunderor’s second album “Bleed For It” demonstrates growth in both songwriting and performance. The record features stronger vocals, expansive choruses, and a balance of raw heavy metal energy with theatrical storytelling. As a concept album, it doubles as the official soundtrack to Thunderor The Musical, guiding listeners through themes of love, struggle, and perseverance.
The band draws inspiration from icons such as Meat Loaf, Van Halen, Bruce Springsteen, The Darkness, H.E.A.T., Night Flight Orchestra, and their own roots in Skull Fist, creating a modern spin on classic heavy and hair metal.
“Bleed For It” will be released on March 27th, 2026, with a limited vinyl bundle available for pre-order:

Their debut album “Fire It Up” (2022) reached #1 on Earshot’s National Loud Chart in Canada, cementing their reputation as a rising force in the global metal scene. Extensive tours across Europe, Canada, Mexico, and South America followed, with Thunderor sharing stages with acts such as Airbourne, U.D.O., Enforcer, and Night Demon.
In May 2024, their single “Get ‘Em Counted” surpassed 230K views on YouTube, building anticipation for their next chapter. In summer 2025, Thunderor premiered Thunderor The Musical at the Toronto Fringe Festival, a bold rock opera featuring unreleased material that now forms the foundation of their upcoming album.

With enhanced vocals, bigger choruses, and a concept-driven narrative, the album promises to be both a soundtrack to the musical and a standalone heavy metal experience.
