Felt this deserved its own thread.  In addition to what was just announced.

Ahhh that's great news. I don't listen to this one often, but aside from TWGMTR I think this is one of their strongest albums post Love You...Which granted, that's not hard to do. But I really think this is a solid album - the production and vocals are top notch. Carl as usual sounds like an angel. I think it just needed one more incredibly solid single and this album would've been better remembered.

God must’ve smiled the day Brian Wilson was born!

"ragegasm" - /rāj • ga-zəm/ : a logical mental response produced when your favorite band becomes remotely associated with the bro-country genre.

Ever want to hear some Beach Boys songs mashed up together like The Beatles' 'LOVE' album? Check out my mix!

It's weird that the video tag says it was posted 7 MONTHS AGO!  Why are we just hearing about this now?  (Or did I miss a thread?)  But even more weird, why didn't it come out last year DURING its anniversary year, as Steve Levine said it was planned to be?!

In this video, Maevey and I discuss the amazing life of Beach Boys star, Brian Wilson.

I was so lucky to have been asked to produce  the 1985 album titled 'The Beach Boys'  and spent an utterly unforgettable time with them in the studio creating this album.

Here are some of my memories of that time as I share my deep thanks to this amazing man. His legacy lives on.

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Wonderful!

The '85 album has always been a favorite of mine. I never got why so many people dislike it.

Nice!  And that was posted on January 23, 2026, just 6 days ago.  So apparently the project is still a go.  Now the question is how and when will we get it?  Will it be a stand-alone release, or will it be paired with another album in a boxed set?  And will it come out this year, or next?  Or even later?

Hey Bedroom, any chance you could give a quick summary of what Steve says in this podcast?  I don't want to listen to the whole hour if it's not worth it.  Thanks!

Hope you don't mind if I chime in. Steve talks mostly about his work, meaning the production and the work with the synths but also how the Boys (especially Brian and Carl) felt about the possibilitites this new technology offered. If you're into that kind of stuff you should check this out. As seen in other videos, Levine seems like a really nice guy who is very fond of his work with the Beach Boys.

Thanks, I hope I have time to listen to it.  So... he didn't give any concrete info about when the album would be released, I assume?

No, that wasn't even discussed iirc.
