Cosmo Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Ok I've listened AL a few times now and the more you listen to it the more you realise how great this album is. This is a really good rock record, from start to finish!Really is. It has officially become my gym album of the month :xmasssanta: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Flower Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 My favourite songs atm are Anastasia, Halo, Standing In The Sun, Apocalyptic Love, Not For Me, Bad Rain, You're A Lie and Far And Away.I also like Carolina and Shots Fired. Crazy Life and No More Heroes are ok. Hard and Fast and One Last Thrill don't do much for me just cause Myles sounds so vanilla. We Will Roam is repetitive and bland and the only song I consistently skip at this stage. It's available today here in Aus. I'm gonna go buy it even though I have a fanpack on the way just cause I want Slash to have as much of my money as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cliffburton Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Im really liking One Last Thrill, its got a little touch of a rockabilly in the main riff and has such a appetite feel to it, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEXzilla Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 first ever post here lol I felt slash pulled a good album with myles, I dont think its something beyond tho its not up to par with AFD or the Illusions albums.It had good songs through out the album like No More Heroes, Shots Fired, Bad Rain, and SIS but the ones that really made me feel like Slash still has something in him were anastasia, Not For Me, and Far and Away. I can honestly say tho that if there is anything weak in the album it would have to be Myles i just cant really get into his voice it sounds like those british bands from the 80s n I just dont like that. Still Slash has some clever riffs that made thisalbum a good rock album plain and simple at least to me B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreblack Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 If it's not at my door before it hits stores, or if the fanpack version doesn't have the DVD on it, I'll do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erguevous Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) GREAT album...I could be wrong but...the intro riff of Anastacia (after the classical guitar part) stems from way back in 1993...check out the slash guitar solo parts (slash + dizzy actually) in the 12, 14, 15 JANUARY 1993 Tokyo live bootlegs, tell me if that's not the same early (and i think slower, I haven't listened to it in years) riff...the progression is there.somebody pull that bootleg and let us know...i couldn't find it on youtube right away...c Edited May 18, 2012 by erguevous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffburton Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I think I love One Last Thrill. I love high octane rockers like this. awesome vibe and I'm beginning to warm up to Myles on this record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Chile or Argentina. And of course during his solo spot on Made In Stoke. Also his acoustic tune Obsession Confession uses a very similar scale.

KiraMPD Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Finally got my fan-pack in the mail today! I've shelved it for the moment though, I'll take a listen to the whole thing after my exams end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Flower Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Bad Rain is my new fav. Like the swagger of the drums, and the way they build to the chorus is cool. Todd does some nice harmonies in the outro. The Todd/Myles harmonies should have been used more on this album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
