I have to say that 'The Cosmos Rocks' disappointed me, so I can understand why they got a 2 star review from Rolling Stone. IMO I'd give it 3/5 stars.

What I don't understand is why The Jonas Brothers get a 4 star review, but Queen and PR get a 2 star review.

It would not matter what the album sounded like, Rolling Stone were never going to like it.

I wish all those Disney "music" artists would just vanish.

Wow.  Rolling Stone gave a Queen album 2 stars??? 

Then it MUST be good!

Remember to use the 'converter' when deciphering RS reviews:

4 stars = Absolute trash.  Don't buy it, it will be worn out within 2 weeks
3 stars = A reach.  Those two songs are possibly worth the price you paid for the whole album
2 stars = Very promising.  Don't expect any articles in here anytime soon.
1 star = A must have.


Edit
Oh, April...  Actually they did make the cover... well Freddie did.  Look for the Michael Jackson issue (91), there at the very bottom (pun intended?) is Freddie's name.  So technically, HE made it.

Oh, you are great!!! I love your comment!

It's important to remember a few things.

Wishing ill will towards other artists does nothing to improve the situation for the bands you like.

Kids need music that speaks to them too, sure it's not your cup of tea but they fill their roles and do their job. Being snobbish benefits no one.

We should all remember that artists have to get their start somewhere. Anyone remember Kurt Russell, child star of family friendly Disney movies back in the day? He eventually became an accomplished and respected actor with millions of fans due to his iconic work when he became an adult. If Russell never got that start from Disney, chances are nobody would have ever heard of him because he wouldn't have a career. Does that mean the Jonas Brothers will become the next Beatles? Of course not but that doesn't mean they won't mature over time and create some worthwhile music. 

I think I speak for the majority of Queen fans when I say...FUCK ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE!!!!

Keep in mind it's not the *magazine* and each and every writer whose collective opinion is that Queen "sucks" just that ONE reviewer in particular. To dismiss the magazine and it's entire history of insightful political and social reporting just over a handful of poor reviews for your favorite band is just plain silly.

ahhh....  a little Freddie Jr.  How cute.

That's funny, because a Jonas Brothers video reminds me of The Miracle video.

Exactly the kind of immature response I should have expected. My mistake.
