gnfnrs1972 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I wonder how much Axl charges himself an hour to record in his own studio? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSo Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 My take is that because it's a Jubilee, an amp Slash hasn't used to record any GN'R material with in the past because it's mainly used just as his live amp, my guess is that he is re-doing bits and pieces of his work over the top of a NITL live album. It would probably just take an afternoon, or a weekend at the most, which would fit with his schedule of getting back on the road. Axl's house studio will be chock-full of NITL material that he'll be going through, thinks something needs a bit of polishing from Slash for an otherwise perfect song, and he's called him in to get it done.

North Korean Democracy Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 At this point i'd be 1000% fine with Slash and Duff just recording over Chinese leftovers since that's the "fastest" way we can get new material. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he can record somehow can only record his parts that way. Well he did LTD with Pro Tools so he probably wouldn't care as much this time. 6 hours ago, Towelie said: Makes me laugh when GNR fans try to diminish Slash’s songwriting abilities when, since leaving the band he’s come up with Serial Killer, Neither Can I, Beggars & Hangers On, Been There Lately, Back To The Moment, Fall To Pieces, Slither, Loving The Alien, Messages, Gotten, Starlight, By The Sword, Anastasia, Beneath The Savage Sun, The Unholy, The Great Pretender. His post Classic-Guns catalogue combined is a lot more substantial than Axl’s one solitary album.

He used the jubilee on KOHD, a little bit on ain't life grand, and on the whole LTD record. At this point it's probably his #1 go to amp for recording too.

Popular Post Gibson87 Posted April 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2019 3 hours ago, Old_school_gnr_fan said: The same would apply for Slash and Duff, to create songs that are not as frenetic to play, because let's face it, their fingers are going to slow down as they continue to age. They're going to need a catalog of GN'R material that is easier for them to physically play. I can't picture Slash playing the close of "Paradise City" in 10-15 years. Aging sucks, but it's a reality. I highly doubt that'll be the case. Angus is 64 and he can still play the fuck out of his songs, Joe Perry is 68 and can still handle the fast paced Aerosmith songs. Also, most of Slash's solos are hammer ons and pull-offs, so they sound fast but they're not really that fast. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 9 minutes ago, Creed said: since the songs are actually done slash and duff could just do their instrumentals recordings somewhere else and send it to Axl. Maybe. But in Axl's world, songs are only done when they're released, and even then chances are he will tell you they weren't done yet. But I've no idea what might be going on in Axl's studio today. Anything is possible. It's GNR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said: If anyone wants to bet that Axl will never release the so-called Chinese Democracy II, I'm taking bets - starting from $1000. Serious people only. I said: I'll do it. Now I don't think CD2 will be released in the exact same form as it is now. I believe that some songs may get new solos by Slash or some other new guitarist.... Most likely Slash though. I also believe that they might record some brand new songs for the album. But with 99% certainty I'd say that songs like The General will be released. So yeah, I'm willing to bet S1000, and this is a serious bet. This was before the reunion. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 knowing how well uncle Ax looks after the fans i thought he would have had a live stream set up in his house for us today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmore Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I really hope it won't be a CD2. CD was great, but they should make an album together, not just of old ideas from Axl. They should all bring their song ideas to the table or will start where it ended in 96, when Axl was trying to dominate everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff said "Axl has some magnificent stuff" when asked about a the new album. And Slash also mentioned it in a few interviews. http://www.metalsucks.net/2019/02/25/duff-mckagan-says-axl-rose-has-magnificent-material-for-the-new-guns-n-roses-album/ https://www.nme.com/news/music/axl-rose-is-working-on-a-ton-of-new-guns-n-roses-tracks-2369703#ylWs16GTuFWxVqej.99 Edited April 27, 2019 by GNRfanMILO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CD2 lyrics are already recorded. that is a massive advantage time wise when trying to work with someone like Axl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's highly unlikely they will have Slash re-record all of the Robin/Bucket/Bumble/DJ? material. Bucket and Bumble's playing style and heightened ability isn't anything like Slash's either too.

Whatever they use will be redone with the current lineup. Those people may be laughing at you when the album is released. Axl didn't re-record all of Bucket's parts on CD, even when he had a new player who was more than capable of doing so (Bumble), which was released years after Bucket left. It's likely Bucket will be on the album in some form. Casual listeners are not going to know the difference anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MaskingApathy Posted April 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2019 The thought that anyone who isn't Slash or Fortus would have guitar parts on new music is just laughable. I can't believe anyone would actually think that. Do you think Slash would actually be ok with that? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point, Axl could have anyone and everyone on CD because the public wasn't clamoring to hear any particular guy solo on that album because the one and only guy they really wanted to hear on lead guitar, was in Velvet Revolver at the time From even just a purely marketing-oriented look on a new GNR album it would make little sense to go "GNR's first album with Slash in 26 years, featuring Buckethead and BBF on lead guitar for a lot of it" As it is right now, I personally can't imagine any guitar solo that isn't Slash on a new GNR album unless it is Fortus - especially when it is a guitar player who left the band 15 years ago and who's guitar tracks are older than that even at this point Edited April 27, 2019 by WhazUp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most, if not all of the songs intended for CD2 have been "finished" for years. No doubt some will be altered with new players from their original intended final version. If GN'R marketing says "GN'R's first album in years with Slash" to promote the album, and if the album only has one song with Slash on it, it would work. But I think it's more likely we will have Slash on 3-4 songs, half of the songs at most, than him re-re-recording every track. I'm certain some of the CD2 tracks don't fit his style, and would sound off without being totally re-worked. Fortus plays lead on at least one track intended for what was once referred to as CD2, so we will hear that one for sure. I suppose time will tell, in another 10 years we may find out. Haha just kidding. I think it will be much sooner than that. I do wish the old new GN'R would have released the followup to CD in or around 2010, it would have been nice to have all or most of that material out there so this new old band could actually make an entire album together. It would give us a lot more tracks for comparison too between the many different lineups. I know in 2008 the band had at least 16 named songs intended for CD2 (Most were original tracks, and a few covers) that didn't appear on CD. Goin Down was on the list, and can probably be excluded at this point, so that's 15 songs which is definitely an album. In that list, there were also an additional 4 different versions of songs we heard on CD, I do not believe these were versions intended for the remix album because they don't have the same club feel the leaked remixed songs had. I can't imagine them having Slash play on all of these, assuming they are all released. I'm thinking we will hear most, if not all of the 15 songs I mentioned above eventually. At the very least, they will release the "big guns" like Atlas, The General, Soul Monster, etc. Edited April 27, 2019 by Sweersa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
