With the release of their latest album New Jersey superstars Bon Jovi have further defected from the raunchy rock & roll bombast of their past. 'What About Now' sails by on a gentle breeze of mature melodies and understated ballads that are light years away from the monolithic choruses and roaring guitar attack of 1980's multi-platinum masterpieces 'Slippery When Wet' and 'New Jersey'. Whilst painfully frustrating for devotees of Bon Jovi's punchy melodic rock stylings, their dedication to the mainstream sounds of the day is hardly surprising. More so than any other band of their ilk, they've backed up an unwavering desire to remain commercially viable with incredibly astute business decisions. In 2013, making anachronistic party rock just won't provide the kind of sustained success Jon Bon Jovi craves. When he described himself as being 'the CEO of a major corporation' in the band's 'When We Were Beautiful' documentary, the motivations for his recent musical choices are all too evident.

Whenever the Jovi boys drop a new album the same questions are asked; is it a return to their 80's sound? Is it guitar driven? Is it a proper rock record? Regardless of shifting over a hundred million units and selling out stadiums around the globe, most fans still crave the kind of record they haven't delivered since 1992's 'Keep The Faith'. Sure, they still capture that style occasionally, but their evolution into a more contemporary outfit has seen the pop infused rock & roll ditched in favour of an MOR sheen reminiscent of U2, Coldplay and Snow Patrol. Even dabbling in country territory on 2007's 'Lost Highway', much to the dismay of many older fans. On the strength of their twelfth studio album - 'What About Now' – such frustrations will only intensify.
