Don't fall into the Cult of the Unreleased, now...
I'm going to name my Unreleased BB/BW playlist
The Cult of Unreleased
now, thanks
As for NPP, I'm still digesting it. I was finding it hard in it's pure format so I've separated the album into two parts... the newbs and the un-newbs. Once I've come to accept both equally I will put them both back together and hopefully appreciate it all the way it was meant to be enjoyed.
Incidentally, the un-newbs are getting more listens, though I do enjoy Nate Ruess' and She and Him's contributions on the newbs mix.

Good question. I remember when there was a Hendrix album, the '69 VU album, Smile, Prince's Black Album, etc. But most of such things have been released as demand for rarities went nuts in these past few decades. Of things that actually exist, I don't know what's left.

SB - lol, and yes. (Though Musgraves toured with K Perry a few years ago. That said, shitty pop beats bro country and boy bands in my book.)
That's like asking if you want to be shot, stabbed, or eaten by a shark.

That sounds like something I might actually end up discussing with my idiot friends [he says lovingly] over too many beers.

After a few beers, it might be easier for me to chose getting shot, stabbed, or eaten by a shark than choosing between bro country, disposable pop, or boy bands.
Getting back on track, Kasey Musgraves, to me, if kind of the female equivalent of bro country (ho country?
no, that's mean), so that's why I don't care for Guess You Had to Be There.
Oddly enough, other than the dance beat, I kinda liked that Safe and Sound sound by Sebu from 2013. Without the dance beat, I'd probably like Runaway Dancer better.

To posts below - pass boring beer talk to Sandbox. We discuss music here.
KDS, what's your favorite bonus track? To me, "Don't Worry".
It's not really beer talk, just a minor aside.
My favorite bonus track is probably I'm Feeling Sad, but I really like Don't Worry, as it reminds me of mid 80s Phil Collins.

The only thing is, most (all?) of its contents are out there. Is there such a thing as a mysterious unreleased album anymore?

I don't think so.
I also think such a phenomenon is a relic from a now-over era, and that just depressed the living sh*t out of me.

Getting back on track, Kasey Musgraves, to me, if kind of the female equivalent of bro country (ho country?
no, that's mean), so that's why I don't care for Guess You Had to Be There.
I missed this earlier. I disagree completely. I think she's probably one of the best 3-5 artists in pop (broad sense, so rock, country, pop, hip hop, etc.) music right now. There is a kind of classic country to her, especially of the slick countrypolitan vibe, with some really clever lyric writing and pop sensibilities. To me, "bro country" is a combination of hair metal and country. It's all slickly produced, heavy kick drum, distorted guitars, big shoutalong choruses, but all dolled up in cowboy hats and jeans as they sing about painfully stereotypical "country: topics: trucks, hometowns, beer, good ol' buddies. Musgraves sings about those things in the same way Sherwood Anderson, Willa Cather, or Sinclair Lewis wrote about them, which is to say with clever satire. And yeah, I guess I said clever a couple of times. That's the word I return to with her.
As for "ho," I dunno ... I say this with no disrespect whatsoever, but it seems to me you're pretty quick to dismiss female musicians for being slutty even while championing male rock/metal that is pretty painfully sexist. I've noticed it as a recurring point among your criticism of modern pop. I wouldn't say Musgraves is especially lascivious. Tediously heavy on the weed references but nothing out of the ordinary in terms of sex.

I think you're reading a little too much in my rhyming bro and ho. I dont think Musgraves flaunts her sexuality.
