OMG! ๐ฑ๐ธ Ryan Roxie, the guy who occasionally strums a guitar next to Alice Cooper, is back with a NEW SINGLE! ๐คฏ It’s called “Better Than You,” which is totally not passive-aggressive at all. ๐ You know, because being in Alice Cooper’s shadow for decades wouldn’t possibly give anyone an inferiority complex. ๐คฃ
And get this, the launch involved a “uniquely disturbing” interview. ๐ค Apparently, Roxie interviewed himself… or rather, an AI clone of himself did the dirty work. ๐ง Because nothing screams “rock and roll” like outsourcing your personality to a bunch of algorithms. ๐คทโโ๏ธ I bet the AI even wrote the questions and answers. Groundbreaking! ๐ฅ
According to the PR spiel, “Better Than You” tackles the digital age with “satirically biting lyrics.” ๐คฃ Satire? More like “I saw someone on Instagram living their best life, and now I’m jelly.” ๐ But hey, at least it’s guitar-driven! Because we all know that’s what really matters in 2024… a guitar. ๐ธ
Roxie, channeling his inner philosopher, says the song is about “doom scrolling.” ๐ฑ “We scroll through the night, watching everyone else live their best lives, and we get hit with suspicion, FOMO, etcโฆ” ๐ญ Yeah, because nothing says “rock star” like being addicted to social media and feeling inadequate. ๐คณ But fear not! Roxie wants you to know that YOUR life might not be so bad after all! ๐ Maybe, just maybe, you’re “better off” than the people you’re stalking online. ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ Deep thoughts, dude. ๐คฏ
Apparently, Roxie sees music as his therapy. ๐งโโ๏ธ “The good, the bad, the ugly โ it’s all in there if you follow the lyrics,” he claims. ๐ค So, basically, it’s a musical diary entry set to power chords? ๐ He encourages everyone to pick up an instrument and write their own songs because “it’s cheaper than a therapist.” ๐ฐ Yeah, because everyone has the talent and dedication to become a rock star. ๐ Plus, who needs actual professional help when you can just scream your feelings into a microphone? ๐ค
But wait, there’s more! ๐ “Better Than You” is just the beginning of a grand release strategy for 2025 and 2026. ๐ Instead of a boring old album, Roxie is going with a “singles-first model,” just like THE BEATLES and THE ROLLING STONES! ๐ (Except, you know, without the talent, fame, or cultural impact.) ๐คทโโ๏ธ
“The plan is to release songs in small batches โ giving each track its own moment,” Roxie explains. โณ “We spend so much time writing, rehearsing, and recording, why not let every song have its time in the sun?” ๐ Because, let’s be real, nobody’s gonna listen to the whole album anyway. ๐ฟ Better to drip-feed them mediocrity one song at a time. ๐ง Then, after he has enough “moments,” he’ll slap them together as an album and “celebrate them all over again.” ๐ Translation: he’ll try to squeeze a few more bucks out of his fans. ๐ค
Roxie joined Alice’s band way back in 1996. ๐ด He toured, wrote, and recorded with him for a decade, contributing to albums like “Fistful Of Alice” and “Dirty Diamonds.” ๐ (You probably haven’t heard of them.) ๐คซ After a “several years absence,” he rejoined in 2012 for the “No More Mr Nice Guy” tour. ๐ Because, apparently, Alice couldn’t find anyone else willing to wear spandex and pretend to play guitar. ๐คก
