Starship

Starship featuring Mickey Thomas will return with a new album in 2013. The frontman says 'Loveless Fascination' feels like a '70s record -- "organic, with a real edge to it." Decide for yourself with this exclusive first listen to 'It's Not the Same as Love…

Mickey Thomas is putting the finishing touches on the first Starship studio effort since 1989, even as he gears up for a five-night visit as part of Raiding the Rock Vault at the Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.

It was bad enough when Jefferson Airplane fully completed their transition to Starship, but things got a little worse when this unidentified four-piece decided to audition for 'X Factor' in the U.K. by using Starship's slice of '80s cheese, 'We Built This City.'

Starship guitarist Mark Abrahamian died last night (Sunday, Sept. 2) of a heart attack following the group's concert in Norfolk, Neb. He was 46 and had been with the Mickey Thomas-fronted group since 2000.
