Yeah, I know, but maybe they could rethink it as it didn't get release anyways.

My assumption is it will be the same, much like The General. The official release of The General sounded slightly more clear than the leak, so at least we may get that. Ideally, they will have professionals handle the mixing and mastering, like they did with Perhaps. They even got Bob Ludwig to master it! He mastered the 2008 album. But, my guess Monsters is already ready to go, despite being a brickwalled sonic shitstorm like The General and Hard Skool. 

I like Monsters, but unless they get it remixed/remastered, I really have not a lot of interest on it anymore. 

Never understood why there were no bootlegs from those two shows. Sure the security was tight, but so it was on the first HOB a year before.  I remember back then people were raving about how good OMG sounded, but also Silkworms - those were the last live performances of the CD-era lineup. 

I am assuming they have a few "big guns" left that may be better than Monsters. (I really do like Monsters) My guess was it was better as Soul Monster with Buckethead, etc.  Imagine it went from Soul Monster, to just Monster because of DJ Ashba  Then they added the extra "s" to signify Slash is back, thus Monsters.   The plan was to release multiple albums then. 2008's Chinese Democracy was not a "best of" between the 32 tracks they were working on then.
