Sony Releases New ‘N Sync Album

Sony just released an ‘N Synch greatest hits album and didn’t notify the band about it. The greatest hits album comes at an inopportune time for ‘N Sync, since they haven’t released an album in over a decade, already have two greatest hits albums out, and don’t have any greatest hits. The album’s liner notes are a mixed bag. Timberlake is obviously doing well, Bass is best gay friends with half of Hollywood, and Fatone is hosting obscurely conceived shows on the Food Channel.  The other two whose names nobody remembers are running janitorial at the last remaining Blockbuster in Florida.

The fact that Sony is putting out old ‘N Synch music and Michael Jackson ‘lost recordings’ album every month is not a great sign for an industry that still hasn’t figured out how to sell shit to millennials thirteen years after shutting down Napster. They could try and discover new music but that sounds like work and if the kids don’t give a shit, why bother. I guess I’m getting old, but I remember when there was a constant flow of crappy new music in the music stores to choose from. You could just say, that horrible fucking song by that Swedish band and every year it was a different horrible fucking song and different Swedish band. Now, what’s the point. Just get a chick with big tits to bang her flip flops together. Actually, that’s not bad.
