Symphonic rock releases, week 37

This week in symphonic rock, notable releases and milestones include William Shatner's new heavy metal project featuring Brian May, Evanescence unveiling the music video for 'Tell Me When You've Had Enough,' and a live crossover performance between Evanescence and Poppy. The Rasmus offer a reimagined take on Alphaville's 'Forever Young,' while archival reflections highlight Electric Light Orchestra's 'A New World Record' and Sparks' 'Music That You Can Dance To' on their 50th and 40th anniversaries respectively. Additional context comes from retrospective insights on Pink Floyd’s 'A Momentary Lapse of Reason' and Motley Crue’s pivotal role in shaping 1980s hair metal.
