Edition #289: April 2025

 

A new book is to be released later in 2025 (the French version is already available): The Ultimate Guide to Rock Music Richard Dion - The Ultimate Guide to ROCK Music

 

About the author:
Born in Quebec in 1973, the year of rock classics by Pink Floyd, Iggy & the Stooges, Paul McCartney & Wings, etc., Richard Dion was quickly introduced to the world of music. From the age of 5, he was impressed by the extravaganza of KISS, while rummaging through his mom’s old LPs (including Elvis and 1960s Quebec bands copied from the Beatles). In 1984, Richard bought his first album, an audio cassette by Bryan Adams (Reckless), before diving into the world of hard rock and heavy metal in his teens. It was in his early twenties that the young music fan really took off. He then opened up to different music genres, including alternative rock, punk rock, progressive rock and classic rock. Since 2001, Richard has been combining his passions for music and writing, and has launched Musicomania.ca. In addition to album reviews, the website features musicographies of major artists, not to mention his famous top 20s of the best albums of each year. In 2010, the best albums of the 2000s were moved from the Internet to a book in French (La meilleure musique de la décennie 2000), and he did it again in 2021 for the 2010 decade.

 

The playlist of the greatest hits of 2025 will be updated each week throughout the year:

Lady Gaga - MAYHEM

Lady Gaga – MAYHEM

Lady Gaga returns to her roots for her seventh album, MAYHEM. She leaves behind her jazzy experiments, her Nashville explorations and her club-dancing impulses to return to a pop sound that characterizes her a little more. But she remains inventive, with a somewhat unstructured, avant-garde approach... (read more)
