People think that the management's role is to force a release out from the artist. Even though Axl struggled a lot with CD, it wouldn't come out if didn't want to. It's the same thing now: the band is not releasing new music because Axl didn't want to work on it before. We don't even know if he's working on it right now, although it's very likely that home demos or even previous years recordings could be worked on (individually). It seems like everyone in the band but Axl would be more than ok to get together and write and release new things. Still, people think it's TB's job to force him to move on. He's not a baby.

With AI, you should probably be aware that fake stuff like this will pop-up a lot more here. The uploader didn't say where it came from and, judging by the sound of it, sounds totally like Garage Band fake orchestra and synths. Slash's solo is amazing, but the song is way too long (which I don't mind if the music is interesting, but in that case I didn't really think much of it).

Nightrain's outro solo was way shorter, tho. And it's one of my all time favorite Slash's solos, so I think I prefer the AFD even with the fade-out.

He mentioned something about the newer NITL singles, which I assume are Perhaps and Hard Skool. Wasn't there some debate about HS, if it was him or Brain? He's super cool and I was surprised when Rick asked about CD, it was almost the end of the interview. I'd love to hear him talk about the album in a technical level.

In case any of you are curious, here's the video played in the background:

There's a new Tommy Stinson interview conducted by a friend of mine for a Brazilian website. There's no real news, he repeated what he said before about his thoughts on CD, the different personas in the band and so and so. He did say that TWAT was his favorite song, and Catcher had "interesting lyrics". If people want, I can translate the exact quote. Or you can just use Google Translator: https://screamyell.com.br/site/2024/04/17/entrevista-tommy-stinson-fala-sobre-novo-disco-solo-os-anos-com-o-guns-n-roses-e-o-legado-do-replacements/

I don't know either. I was hoping for @Blackstar to point exactly from where those came from lol

After a quick search on Google, I found this website citing this quote, but it did not say from where: https://www.bookey.app/quote-author/axl-rose#:~:text=In the famous words of,in order to truly live.

LOL I didn't notice that. Sorry, I'm an amateur.

Of course it's official. It's unmistakable amateurish with lower case "rose" and one-sided quotation mark:

I agree, but to be very cynical, Axl's voice here wasn't in a good shape either. And I like the album arrangements better than this pre-AFD state, most notably Rocket Queen's outro, Anything Goes lyrics and Nightrain extended outro.

He also predicted Instagram.

I think he used it for Oh Well too. You can hear him attacking the tremolo bar in the outro.

I liked it. I actually liked the outro, quite a lot.
