Our Take

STYX's "Babe - The Collection" is a rollercoaster of nostalgia, cheese, and mullets that leaves you wondering how such a mix of elements can exist in one album.

From the moment the opening track "Babe" kicks in with its infectious chorus and synth-laden production, you're transported back to the '80s when power ballads ruled the airwaves. The band's signature harmonies are on full display, blending effortlessly with the intricate guitar riffs and bombastic drum fills.

But don't let the saccharine sweetness fool you - STYX knows how to rock out too. Tracks like "Renegade" and "Come Sail Away" showcase the band's prowess in creating anthemic rock songs that demand to be played at full volume.

The collection also includes some unexpected covers, like their rendition of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" which, while not quite reaching Freddie Mercury levels of vocal mastery, still manages to capture the spirit of the original.

Overall, "Babe - The Collection" is a delightful trip down memory lane for fans of '70s and '80s rock. It may not be the most groundbreaking album of its time, but it sure knows how to deliver a good time. So grab your air guitar, turn up the volume, and let STYX whisk you away on a magical musical journey.
