Not too much Mickey tonight!

Heard this on the radio a couple times today, and that station has Killing Floor in rotation. It's nice to hear these songs while I'm at work. Honestly it's still kinda blowing my mind that Slash combined a blues album with another 'all star guest' album, two things I wished he'd do for years, and so far these songs have turned out as good as I dared imagine them being. Great band, great production, great choices of guests, classic songs... Such a refreshing change from the last couple SMKC records.

No, lol. Duff will be getting ready for his tour, Slash will be getting ready for his Serpent tour, and Axl will be doing whatever the hell he does between tours. I don't expect Monsters to be released until next year, when they can realistically do a few months of touring. Slash has said he wants to do another SMKC album later this year.

This is part of why I'd love to hear them do another covers record. Yes, it's stupid for a band with such a small discography to do multiple covers albums. But there's no indication they'd use Frank in the studio, and Axl could still sound great on Wichita and The Seeker... not to mention some covers of Thin Lizzy, Alice Cooper, The Angels, etc. Honestly when I saw them in 2017, I Feel Good and Wichita were some of their best songs. They were clearly having fun and sounding good doing it. Wichita is still one of the best songs they play... take the pressure off Axl and let him have fun with classic rock songs, get Brain (or Josh, or any pro session drummer really) and I think they'd knock it out of the park. That said, Monsters is great, so much better than the other singles... so they'll release at least one last good song

Nobody should still be 'waiting' for GNR songs lol. At least we've got this Slash record to look forward to - so far it sounds like it'll be his best album in decades. One of my favourite artists dropped a new single today, another announced their album and put physical copies up for sale, and another hinted about a release next week. There's too much good stuff constantly being released to wait for Axl's 20+ year old unfinished ideas... The General really cemented that.

Both the singles he's released so far have been a refreshing change of pace, from the production to his style of playing to the band he's assembled. The singers have been at least on par with his 2010 album... this might really be his best album in decades.

I've listened to Oh Well a few times now and y'know, it might be better than Killing Floor. I've liked both singles and they both get better with each listen, this album is gonna be cool as fuck and I'm stoked to see the tour.

I still prefer Killing Floor, but Oh Well is awesome. Just listened to it. The sound is great, this album is gonna be so fuckin good...

That lazy son of a bitch, I bet he gets Caram to brickwall the songs at the last minute too. Thankfully Buckethead is constantly releasing music with good mixes and without clipping.

Yes, I'm afraid this mistake has ruined any potential enjoyment I may have gotten from the song. I'll complain about it endlessly now. The important question is: are there any vocals that were recorded within the last two decades?

Stoked for this one. And it's such a minor thing... but the text being off-center on the artwork is annoying the shit out of me.

The Struts announced a show at a cool theatre in Vancouver, looks like I'll be seeing them for the 2nd time in under a year.

Rocket Queen and Prostitute are great closing songs for similar reasons - they're good songs on their own, and they perfectly encapsulate those albums. The first half of Rocket Queen is sleazy while the second half is more personal, but the whole song has a nice groove. It's the G and R side combined into one song and it actually works. My point was that it doesn't sound good live anymore, and the extended jams in the middle get tiring. This lineup would sound better on songs like You Ain't The First and Black Leather.

Got a youtube link? I looked for it with a vpn but didn't see it
