After two decades apart, singer Joey Belladonna has returned to Anthrax for their tenth studio album Worship Music. From the sound of "Fight'em 'Til You Can't," the first track to be released from the new disc, the band fell back into their classic style with great ease, resulting in a punishing metal track that stands up to the best material of their Eighties heyday. Worship Music won't be in stores until September 13th, the day before the band plays The Big 4 festival with Metallica, Slayer and Megadeth at New York's Yankee Stadium, but you can stream "Fight'em 'Til You Can't" right now.

“1999”

Prince | 1982

“I don’t consider myself a great poet,” Prince told Rolling Stone. “I just know I’m here to say what’s on my mind.” In the case of the apocalyptic party anthem “1999,” he was worried about then-president Ronald Reagan’s foreign policies. The song’s melody is based on a riff borrowed from the Mamas and Papas’ “Monday, Monday,” and Prince originally envisioned the first verse with three-part harmony but later split the vocals between himself and members of the Revolution. Because Warner Bros., with whom Prince was locked in a contractual battle, owned the original’s masters, Prince rerecorded the song and appropriately released that version in 1999.
