I have to be honest, I'm a big fan of U2 but really didn't like their more polished post 2000 work. I think I might be in the minority though and say No Line on the Horizon is really haphazard but there are 4-5 solid songs on there, Magnificent is great 'arena rock' U2. Songs of Innocence was probably more consistent but had less stand out tracks. I liked the albums from 2000 and 2004, but nothing really after that.

U2 are actually quite a gold mine or the odd song that isn't on a major album. Miss Sarajevo, Ordinary Love also spring to mind, plus Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill me (really good song!) from the mid 90s. A superb song. Used in Batman Forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alejandro GNR Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I loved both SOI and SOE...much more than No Line on the Horizon... Great band and so many styles in their discography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I didn't realize so many bands put out new music with greatest hits records. Learn something new every week! Would be funny if they put a song most everyone doesn't like on one. Haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowOfTheWave Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Soul Monster is Axl's favorite song. Yet Axl seems quite content to never release it or sing it live. I really don't understand this man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Axl doesn’t want to release it, he will take it to his grave and very well possibly the afterlife. Unless someone else has or had access to these tracks and currently still has them, we will NEVER hear them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't understand this man. I think the whole fan base would agree with the last sentence. Take the mexico soundcheck. The band soundcheck 3 different songs, including hardschool and the biggest cuck to the fanbase is not playing either of them in the set as a teaser and taste to their proposed US tour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is practically guaranteed. Just look at Bowie, Prince, MJ. I would expect 2-3 albums within 5 years of Axls death personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragan1978 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Slash said something in some interview like ,,we do not know how to release album" maybe he was reffering to the CD leftovers and a couple of new songs by Axl, Duff and him (I dont believe they have written 12 or more songs that are worth material by Axl's standards, I assume 4-5 songs are written) so the do not know how to ,,complete" album with that maybe I am wrong with this but just was thinking Edited April 12, 2020 by dragan1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't know how to release an album for maximum profit. They are looking at copy and pasting a bunch of powerchords from Paul Huge Tobias' sessions and Axl's old vocal lines, drowned in a lot of over the top random layers of random Pitman noises. Slash wil re-record some lead on top of it. At the end of the day, it won't be released becquse they won't be able to figure out 'how to release an album'.

Jw224 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 It goes on streaming services and people start listening to it. That's how stuff is released nowadays. I don't know what the band are expecting, especially for an older band like they are. They can market it how they want but album release is pretty simple nowadays. Physical or digital. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
