Dazey Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I like this but does anybody else think it sounds much more like AC:DC than GnR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 The last time Axl did something so out of the blue was the voice over work for GTA: SA. That game was released in 2004, so it only took 4 more years to get Chinese Democracy after that. Here's hoping this Looney Tunes thing is a sign of things to come and we get moving at that same lightning fast speed again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is from this year, maybe few months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Will we get a proper audio of this? I need to replay it and pretend it's the greatest thing I've heard for about a month like I did with shadow. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonok Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 "Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?" "That I should start wearing mesh shirts and kilts on stage again?" Why is nobody talking about this? Anyway, he sounds great and now I want Axl and Slash to do the full soundtrack to a new Phineas and Ferb movie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheGeneral Posted December 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2018 Who cares if it sounds like AC/DC? Like seriously, what do you expect? November Rain 2.0? It's supposed to be a generic rock song because all that song is supposed to do is show off that Axl is a rock singer. It doesn't have anything to do with AC/DC or GNR, it's just a simple song probably made by someone from that studio that's supposed to fit the theme. No need to overanalyze it and/or bitch about it. It's a fun little thing, just enjoy new Axl vocals. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycgunner Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Very surprising on every level. The target audience, kids, most likely don’t know of Axl, so it’s kind of cool to see him immortalized in such a way. Cooler that Axl didn’t take himself seriously enough to not do it. I was 10 when I discovered Gn’R (they were at their absolute height in the early 90s). I watched cartoons then and wld have loved this! He sounds good - his voice has aged but he still has that legendary rasp. Glad he can muster it up in the studio. 🤘 That guitar could be anyone. Wldnt be shocked if it’s Slash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gackt Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Somehow the writing always felt on the wall, using the Looney Tunes music for the concert intro. Axl may have been asking for this, I could see him watching Boomerang cartoons on his days off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel weird because I wasn't into GN'R when that game came out, so listening to that I had no clue it was Axl. Did that really just come out and we were all like, wait what the fuck why is Axl Rose a DJ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swedish Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I have no problem with how Axl sounds here but this should be all the evidence we need that SOYL wasn't re-recorded. He sounds like current Axl on this track, not bad just obviously older than he did in the 80's. Oh and also I'm not sure we've heard the kind of vocals he uses in the 1st verse before, it's mid-range but not the usual Axl mid-range! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fabrph5 Posted December 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2018 I swear, MOST gnr fans are a bunch of babies. Cry the band breaks up, cry when new band forms, cry when original gets back together, cry lack of tour, cry to much tour, cry that there is no new music, cry that a new song is released. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azifwekare Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 It's cool that this is happening, but it just perfectly shows what we've become as a fanbase: a whole load of grown ass adults (I assume) getting excited about a throwaway track from a children's cartoon. To fans of literally any other artist this would simply be a cool little bonus that everyone would laugh at for a couple of minutes and then forget about. But not GN'R fans - we're that fucking desperate for new music. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waxl1974 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Four simple words "I fucking love it" What else is around the corner to surprise us? In GNR world anything could happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no scientist but it would appear to me that YOU are the only one I see complaining about this topic and seem completely off topic. I see a fanbase that as a whole is actually being positive about it even if they didn't dig the clip. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of my favourite shows are actually...'Rick and Morty' and 'Bojack Horseman' Of course not, I love cartoons too and think this is very cool, but similar things like this have been done by other artists over the years and none have got the reaction that this has, because those artists didn't leave their fans starving for new music for decades at a time. Axl and Fernando are in a three hour meeting as we speak saying "That went great! We'll be good for another ten years, at least... Now let's get the next NITL leg booked."

Modano09 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 (edited) It's called "Rock The Rock" and Bugs Bunny is playing lead guitar. All I'm interested in is how Axl sounds in a, I imagine, recent recording and he sounds good. So my "maybe Axl can't sing anymore" fears are no more.
