Malcolm Malcolm 32 Posted September 14 I mean what the fuck was wrong with all these industry people? We should've got the Beavan album around the turn of the millennium - it only got harder and harder to explain to the public after that high point of interest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Draguns 455 Posted September 14 Perhaps and Hard School are my two favorites from the leaks so far. They both have that classic GNR vibe. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Malcolm Malcolm 32 Posted September 14 (edited) And by the way, no wonder Axl half asses his vocals so much of the time. He's probably been bored and frustrated singing the same songs for twenty years, sitting on stuff like this. Edited September 14 by Malcolm Malcolm 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeeJay410 828 Posted September 14 This is enthralling and infuriating at the same time. This album was fucking ready and it was fucking good. 11 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am very happy with what we had but if they released a double album at the time Chinese would have been the best selling album of all time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They wanted money They ended up losing a ton of money as a result. It's as simple as this - at the turn of the millennium a traditional GnR album would've been really unfashionable. This material gave Axl a fighting chance of weathering the storm, for all he wouldn't have sold 15 million. Universal Music wasted a fortune and a career here.

They wanted money I was always skeptical of this theory until these songs started leaking and it was clear the music was there. Axl was ready to roll. They gambled by punting, hoping slash would return, never thinking that Axl would legitimately hold out for nearly 10 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicklord 521 Posted September 14 Well I'm blown away by both songs that leaked tonight I was losing all my hope after Atlas and Hardschool but this. This is what I wanted from Chinese Democracy album. Updated UYI sound Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're all alone Used to be a little crazy now there's so much more You're all alone Some slight changes, still think most of the raspy vocals are mostly unintelligible to me.

TeeJay410 828 Posted September 14 How the fuck does this song not make the album? The only explanation was that he honest to God thought he was going to release two albums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
