Of course nothing about Triumph. I was pretty surprised Journey wasn't mentioned in either the summer releases or tours section. Motley Crue was. Is it possible because their release is a Walmart exclusive that EW chose to ignore it?

EW chose to ignore it because it's Journey. They don't get much respect. Surprised as it's a 3 band show (Journey/Heart/Cheap Trick). Or maybe that's the problem? Who knows.

I think very possible.
I don't get the feeling Wal Mart is a very popular retailer in some media outlets.

Last time EW reviewed a Journey release it was for 'Arrival.'
I forget the exact letter grade, but it wasn't too positive.
In fact, what I do remember is that the critique ended with "do stop believin."
