I doubt Slash is going to be pissed off about shit that went down more than 20 years ago. Anyways... I know this is stupid, but I hope the launch of his personal website has to do with music. There are probably songs in the vault he really wants to release at some point, but that just don't fit with the current incarnation of Guns N Roses. Maybe he finally came to terms with it, and is going to release the more experimental stuff under his own name. And maybe, just maybe, release a classic GNR rock album with Slash and Duff. This might make too much sense to happen Another crazy idea: maybe his high pitched voice is actually done for and he'll reinvent himself and release solo stuff with his lower register. As a perfectionist he probably doesn't want to do that with GNR, so it's more ideal to do that as a solo artist. In which case we might get more piano driven songs. Anyways... with Axl and Duff doing their own solo stuff, it makes sense if Axl would do the same. However big or small that may be. It could just be a intimate piano tour... whatever. It can be anything. But it makes sense that he'll do something. Every year counts at his age and doing nothing is going to end in retirement at some point.

I don't think we'll see Bucket back ever. *If* (big if) Axl would release solo stuff, we might see Richard Fortus on it though. Or - and people are gonna hate this - DJ Ashba

IRS would have done fine.

But Axl never has. CD was fine, but there were no big hits. What Axl can do however, is take Slash and Duff songs to another level... and together they could release something great. If they break up again GNR is done.

Ozzy with a new song. Damn. At some point he'll release songs from the afterlife and we still won't have a new GNR album lol.

Not sure about that. His "musical statement" was Chinese Democracy. Axl probably wants to keep releasing reworked Chinese era songs. We got a Monsters leak with Slash on it. There's more. But completely new material with Duff and Slash? I don't know. Would be great for sure, but it seems far away.

They might know, but don't care as long as GNR plays the classic songs on tour and does a great show.

At first I was a bit disappointed the album was going to be full of covers. But Killing Floor has grown on me as just a fun song to listen to. Steven Tyler's playing is a great addition as well. If the whole album has the same effect I'm happy. Just fun music to listen to. I like blues music.

Slash and even Duff while doing a million other things: oh by the way here is my new album. Axl: ...

Audioslave was great actually... one of my favorite bands. SMKC doesn't even come close to that. Which is a shame, because Alter Bridge has its moments and I really like Slash on most of the stuff he does... but they don't seem to blend well. Songwriting wise. Their cover of Rocket Man on 24th feb was great though. Slash on a pedal steel. I guess what I'm saying is this: Myles Kennedy sounds great to me on slower songs, Chris Cornell sounded great on friggin' everything. SMKC has done a smart move live by letting Todd Kerns sing the more rock n roll type of songs. He has more attitude. And Myles can do the slower (more musically) stuff really well. They should do duets actually... 2 singers. Axl used to be great at everything once as well. It's not so much a Axl and Slash thing. Axl was very versatile. Before his voice went to shit at some point. PS Scott Weiland was very talented and I'm still a fan of Contraband and STP, also some of his solo stuff. But he was an asshole. Sorry He was never a good teamplayer (according to Duff iirc).

They will do a farewell tour to make extra money. Last chance to see them! Very expensive.

If the band would release new music on a regular basis nobody would care about leaks. GNR is the only band I have ever listened to the leaks... and I listen to a lot of music.

Guns songs I listen to the most: Bad Apples, Pretty Tied Up, Dust N Bones, So Fine, 14 Years, Civil War, etc. Songs I hardly listen to: Absurd, The General, Perhaps, etc ... To Axl: please release something that ROCKS and doesn't take itself too seriously. Enough with the overly dramatic stuff please. Make it fun again. Bring Izzy back as a songwriter.

Even The Black Crowes are releasing a new album. First 2 singles sound fine. Oh well.

It's a cool tune, but I was hoping for a crazy Slash solo that didn't come. Still a fun song to listen to.
