If tomorrow a new GN'R album call American Democracy comes out. And all the songs are about politics. Sure some people might not like it. But at least we would have a new album and new songs being played at shows. Axl can talk about politics all he wants. But it's a shame he is not working on a new album as well. Even if there is a chance he is working on a new album. There is zero official infomation about it Yeah, I really want a new album too. I think its likely that Axl finished writing and recording his vocals for the next Guns album in 2002. He doesnt tweet much and it just takes a second. Lets hope he tweets to pass the time while the studio techs test mic positions for 3 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl fucking Rose is an artist and by telling him to not be a political being, one is telling him to just be a mindless-sell-out-of-an-entertainer. Does he give any substance to his tweets? Which are his political songs? Civil War from 1990 and..... Chinese Democracy it is just a title.... His tweets are comparable to my aunt talking to the butcher at the supermarket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said we should let him be "a political being" because he's also an artist...... umm... he is a political being like we all are (or should be) regardless of his artist status. But like @Padme said, this guy does not transfer his political being to his art. At the moment, he is just tweeting shit about his president. Now, typing a tweet is considered art? I don't think so but yeah, he can tweet all he wants and I think we have a right to complain about it. It's got nothing to do with not letting him be political.... he is.... but only on Twitter, not where politics really are Edited September 20, 2018 by killuridols Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lio Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Whatever, it's his Twitter. Besides, Twitter is much more of a political instrument than music nowadays. Politics have been dominated by Twitter for years now, from the Twitter Revolution to Trump. I am not saying Axl will change the worl with his tweets, I'm just saying that Twitter is where politics are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will join you in saying to Axl that if there's a choice to be made between tweeting superficial and bland, half-assed shit OR recording a hard rock masterpiece then please, Axl, choose to record a hard rock masterpiece. Actually, I'd go one further and say that to everyone on Twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pentatonicamenor Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I think it's time to think about a new album, ending Gn'R and Slash tours. It'd be great to have new material in 2019, but I now it's almost impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a new album too but I don't think he should choose... I mean... he can do both.... What I'm trying to say is.... if Axl wants to go political on Twitter, then stop tweeting bullshit. His comments on Trump are bland, except when he has to insult his wife, then he goes all macho because that's his nature. But for Trump, he's not the Axl from Get In The Ring or OIAM..... Why is that? I thought he had balls, but apparently he only has balls when he has to abuse women or journalists, not for powerful men in the governments. That's basically why I think he should STFU on Twitter about Trump. Go 100% or nothing. He's not "woke" like those stupid articles say, he's pretty green about social stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kwick1 Posted September 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2018 I love that Axl tweets and that he uses his twitter account to express his opinions. What I don't like are all the responses of "I love you will you marry meor the ever present where's Izzy? Its irritating and pointless to read any of the comments. And no, I don't think his Twitter use takes away from anything else in his life 😀 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
