That is ironic since Axl has Essentially been called some round about form of "lazy " by almost everyone he's worked with and ESPECIALLY during the Chinese Democracy sessions. How many times have we heard the following: We rarely saw Axl. I have no clue if he actually wrote lyrics or recorded vocals for the songs that were basically complete, musically? And then there were the numerous band members,  who presented song ideas to Axl, only to have him respond 'I have no interest in putting effort Into this" Plus, the 4 new singles are far from polished woekd

Not really. Did you forget the REAL catalyst for Guns N'Roses going downhill? S.A is the catalyst that started Guns N'Roses going downhill, and I don't mean sexual assault. 💡

I think you don't have to tour in order to release a new album. I don't even know if Axl would want to release a new Gn'R album without the ability to support it with a tour or maybe he doesn't give a fuck about that aspect of it anymore if what he wants to do is just add to the catalog. you seem to ignore the fact that Axl is not sharing any information for years now, or that he is a pro musician that has the ability to complete existing songs, compose new ones, and work on new ideas that came from other people in his band. I didn't say he can take 5 years to work on a single song, I said that he can still take years to construct a full album. maybe it can be a hybrid album of mostly new but also old material. you seem to think that all Axl can do is use old shit and he is incapable of coming up with new shit or work on new shit. nothing we know supports that belief.

First of all, I know this isn't the new album thread and I'm sorry for continuing this shit     Do you think he'll be touring and releasing music in his 70s? I don't think he has 5 years to waste on a song, if he treats it the same as Hardschool, Perhaps, etc - a 'fresh' addition for the next couple years of touring. I'd guess the 'new material they could come up with' is Duff songs and covers, for the most part. Maybe we actually get a few new songs from Axl, and maybe he really is holding onto some gems for an album, but I doubt it...

you're not taking into consideration a lot of factors: the new material Gn'R could come up with, the exact number of unreleased Chinese tunes be it instrumentals or with vocals remains unknown to us, what Axl has managed to come up with since the time he gave that interview about the 26 songs completed and 32 overal. that was a long time ago. don't know why you think it would be likely a collection of the NITL singles and other songs, but I guess it's possible. I'm talking more about a proper, final musical statement. does Axl thinks a full album is the way to go? or what if he'll want to release just one brand new single at a time that came from a Slash riff for example? there are too many factors that we have no idea about, but it did seemed in the China Exchange interview that Axl was still in his Chinese phase, still not being done with releasing what you can call extra Chinese tracks, but after that, anything is (still) possible. nothing is stopping Axl from taking 5 years to construct another musical statement and now he has all he needs to make it happen cause Slash and Duff are back in the band and there's no pressure to do anything. the only way it could work imo.
