Estranged Reality Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Evidence: He's resurrecting Iggy. Could he do the same for Axl and the boys? His resume is virtually spotless. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 It would be a very interesting sound, I think!It'd be something...different, in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Jesus Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Evidence: He's resurrecting Iggy. Could he do the same for Axl and the boys? His resume is virtually spotless. I am pretty sure that he is still shook up over being in the Terrorist attack in France. Other than that, he has bad mouthed Axl so much that it would never happen. I would say that there is a better chance of Ron Thal producing the next album, if there is one... But in this crazy world, who knows... Anything is possible.

Estranged Reality Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 He wasn't actually present for the terrorist attack, and the album with Iggy only entered production within the last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billsfan Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Wasn't he a part of the pigeons of shit metal when they got kicked off the GNR tour? Just saying, he might not be interested anyways.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jafeijo Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Fucking great Idea. I'm a BIG fan of his work as producer/musician, he made magic with guys like Arctic Monkeys, imagine what he could do with GN'R. I'd go nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estranged Reality Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 I think it would, at the very least, give them a good amount of relevance and credibility -- and not at the risk of artistic integrity, either. Homme is respected and all his albums he's produced have been met with rave reviews. The new track with Iggy got "Best New Track" from Pitchfork, and his last album with Queens earned numerous year-end rewards and critics' lists. I'm not saying I'd want GN'R to abandon their classic sound, but I think he could do something interesting with it, give them a different edge without compromising what made them good to begin with. As you said, look at what he did with the Arctic Monkeys or Iggy. Hell, even the album he did with Grohl and John Paul Jones was solid, and it wasn't like either of those guys' musical sensibilities weren't given breathing room. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 i can't support such blasphemy.eagles are kind of a joke band, so i can understand people not getting the humor or whatever. but queens are colossal. one of my favorite rock bands of the last couple decades for sure.imagine axl singing over a riff like this: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoop Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Evidence: He's resurrecting Iggy. Could he do the same for Axl and the boys? His resume is virtually spotless. He worked with Iggy because he's a fan and he likes and respects him. I'd be surprised if he didn't feel differently about Axl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggers Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 QOTSA are probably the best ROCK band to come out in the last 20 years IMO. I'd love to see Josh work with Guns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 It'll probably be done in house by Axl,Pitman and Castanzo. My vote goes to Sir George Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Nope, can't get into QOTSA, couldn't even get it into Them Crooked Vultures (and my ex-gf used to play that CD all the time), I honestly don't understand the love for Josh Homme. Please keep him as far away from GNR as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Lullabies to Paralyze is in my top three favourite albums released in the first decade of the 21st century. I don't think there's a single track I don't like on that album. Home has a great sense of melody and rhythm, something I think Axl shares. It would be an interesting experiment. Can't see it ever happening considering Axl!s less than kind words for EODM, but it!s a cool concept to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicklord Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Josh is angry motherfucker sometimes. He would kick Axl out of the studio after like 2 days...I'm surprised that Slash and he never did something together. That would be cool to hear.

Josh Homme but I'm hard pressed to argue against any of this.If Gardenia is anything to go by, he sure as shit has revitalised Iggy's music again and if JPJ thought enough of him to form Them Crooked Vultures, well I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.I remember Homme mainly from when Kyuss supported Metallica on the Black tour and he went crowd sufing, only for security not to recognise him on the wayback and they beat him up Also, he seems to have an ear for melody and Axl seems rather ballad/introspective driven if CD is anything to go by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsonsaul Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Jack White or Dan Auerbach. The later might get too poppy tho.Both would get them back to basics and encourage less perfectionism from Axl. Axl's also a fan of both by sounds of things.
