God, if it's meant to be a 'political album', I'm out.

It's early to judge, but the album title screams to me like a lack of creativity and not knowing what actually to say. Which makes me fear that the tracks don't have any content other the news and observations :rolleyes:

I think the album title is BON JOVI: 2020 and not the one mentioned on the title. Also the title is inspired from the upcoming electional year

You and about 1000 others on twitter - with the exception of the blind faith brigade who'd buy the sound of Jon farting in an empty bake bean tin. Thinking about it - that would be better than THINFS :D

Here's a little more about it:

The news comes from Variety, who report that he told this to fans during a show on his Runaway to Paradise Mediterranean cruise, and that the title and its contents are, according to him, inspired by today's headlines. “It’s an election year, so why not?” he said. “I couldn’t do any worse.”

He added that the songs deal with such topics as veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and the recent spell of mass shootings. Saying he's "very happy with it," he admitted that it's a "different record" than fans are used to, especially given the subject of their previous effort.

“This House Is Not for Sale dealt with personal matters, and now it’s behind us,” he added. “Now I have clear vision moving forward.”

The last line makes me still think it's going to be Bon Jovi 20/20 not Bon Jovi: 2020. If all they have is what he said, he could have meant it either way; but 20/20 vision is at least a little more creative.

Uh oh -- in view of the name of the previous Bon Jovi album, Jon is either going blind, or he knows that the world is going to end next year!

It’s definitely 2020 the year, as in election year, not 20/20 as in eyesight.

I mean if this is part of a different sounding album then great. Worst case scenario is a rehash of WAN/THINFS
