The last 25 years has give us Mirage, Tango in the Night, Behind the Mask, Time, The Dance and Say You Will. Not to mention The Chain set and Live in Boston...
Time for a math refresher. Mirage was released in 1982. It's now 2008. That was 26 years ago. Also, I have a hard time including The Dance on that list. How hard could it have been to basically do a greatest hits live album with Viacom, Warner Bros., and Clear Channel on your side? Four studio albums in 25 years, ONE studio album in ten years...Yeah, I've moved on.

Compared to my new favorite artist, Robert Pollard, the Mac's output since 1987 has been laughable at best. He released three full length albums, one double album, a mini-EP, a "comedy" album of stage banter, a self-published art magazine, and a Best Of compilation LAST YEAR. He's already released three albums, an EP, and a self-published magazine of funny stories this year AND has an art book coming out next month, and has close to FIVE albums in the can. He has also released a series of 12 7" singles since last July. He's done more in two years that the Mac have done in two decades.
