"Better" to a lot of people is complete garbage. The song get's almost zero reaction at the shows.. It is such a weird song that no one knows what the hell is going on.. Not every song on CD is completely terrible but that one sure is.. That and TIL are hands down the worst moments of these Gn'R shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DieselDaisy Posted August 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 21, 2018 ''Anastasia'', to me, is better than the entirety of Chinese Democracy. You have the ingredients of songs like Locomotive there. Those epic quintessential Slashy leads which grab you by the bollocks. Chinese has nothing like that. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold top 78 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I would go as far to say Anastasia is the most guns sounding song since the UYI albums. Any CD song to me doesn’t come near it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadSlash Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 8 hours ago, moreblack said: Not that hopeful myself. It's pretty telling, that the first thing Slash did when he had free time between tour legs, was go back to Myles, Todd & Co. to finish the album they put on hold for the GNR tour in the first place. Maybe, but then again, we don't know what, if anything was held back for a GnR album. Slash is a prolific writer and he is not a perfectionist. He is also one writer from SMKC, the MKC in SMKC had nothing better to do than write music for their album. I mean you might be right, my point is, we just don't really know.

Powderfinger Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I wonder if Axl even likes Guns n Roses! He sounded better with AC DC, maybe if he sang in Slash’s band he’d sound better than he does with slash playing in his band..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post F*ck Fear Posted August 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2018 I honestly do not give a fuck what Axl thinks about Slash's solo project. I like it, and to me, thats all that matters. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anastasia is a prime example of why SMKC are lacking. You have what is possibly the most epic riff and guitar part from Slash post-Guns, with a mediocre melody line from Myles. By the time the first verse kicks in you've already heard the best it has to offer. Edited August 22, 2018 by Towelie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stro Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Was it ever revealed which songs from Snakepit that Axl wanted back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, the standard set by Chinese Democracy is much LOWER. That record should spew platinum and diamonds on each track, considering how long it took to make it. And, it doesn't. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azifwekare Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I think a more interesting question would be does Slash like SMKC's music? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another great song that would fit into the Guns set nicely. LOVE Dirty Little Thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
