The Lonely Goatherd

It’s a week before Christmas and grisly ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom! That’s right boys and girls, Michael Jackson has come back from the dead with a new album called Michael. If I’m understanding correctly, the record company has a deal to put out as many as 10 posthumous albums of new material.

Look, the dude couldn’t come up with a decent album his last 15 or so years of having the significant creative advantage of being alive. On the other hand, being dead might have been an improvement over the last couple of albums. This first album would appear to be mostly made up of scraps that didn’t make the Invincible album. That’s starting out at the bottom of the barrel – and you’re going to get NINE MORE albums out of this?
