Axl, Band and Management don't give a fuck about the fans.
I've been a GN'R fan since Rock in Rio 2001. It's almost 22 years and that delay was the most bizarre thing i've seen in all those years.
haven't posted in a long time ... and i don't think i ever will again. this is really a low point (in a series of low points) ... so after all that patience for years and a series of "more of the same"-world-tours filled with mostly uninspired, often predictable and sloppy live performances (at least vocalwise) that have turned ax into a parody of himself ... what's left and what the band or management are pulling off right now is nothing short of a failure to communicate, a mean n' chronically disrespectful foolery (at least of the real fanbase), an ongoing waving of imaginary carrots and a logistical bankruptcy (not to speak of the creative one, when you think of how unloving and unkind they treated a potentially ok song like "hard skool") ... clinging to this band and still hoping for something interesting or actively supporting them has become like a symptom of a well developed "stockholm syndrom". if i weren't home already, i'd say: "thank you lame ass ..." (well you know the words). this is really it, i think i'm done.

the first lines and rhymes of „sorry“ are just horrible (e.g. „do“ - „you“ // „in“ - „in“ // and again: „do“ - „you“ …) very selfrighteous song all in all … though the line: „it‘s harder to live with the truth about you // than to live with the lies about me“ is ok …
other than that: „get in the ring“, „if the world“ (both mediocre songs anyways) n‘ „rhiad“ (cool one musically) are lyrical lowpoints in my opinion … i always understood „one in a million“ as a provocative „role-poem“, so i can live with that …
but let‘s rather make a thread about the best gnr-lyrics n‘ lines!

I've listened to it quite a few times over the last days and it is a solid track. Like a few people said, the production is weird; the track sounds pretty bad on my speakers but it is much better through headphones.
While the track has overall improved with each new listen, the breakdown/slow section has done the opposite. Everytime I listen to Hard Skol, my mind keeps on expecting a long solo to kick in and then the song just stops for about 30 seconds. Really hurts its momentum and, IMO, doesn't fit the lyrics or the rest of the track. To be honest, the breakdown reminds me of those parts in concerts when a song is stopped flat so the singer can give a shout out to the different band members.
the breakdownsection really breaks the song down. anything else - productionwise - i can forgive, but those 30 seconds (feels longer than kohd live) after the cool solo-start by slash really macdaddy the fun out of it and kill the dynamics ...

I really like Hardschool, especially the verses and chorus. I'm not crazy about the intro/bridge/guitar solos, but that could easily be fixed with Duff and Slash.
yeah, either that; or they leave the lead guitar(s) during the "solo" in the background and that section serves as a bridge with some vocals and sung melodies added (maybe even doubeling some of the guitar-parts lyrically/vocally)... would give the song more dynamics and make it more diversified ... the way it is done now the track appears too repetitive imho (although i like the hooks) and is kinda running out of stream during that solo-part ...

It's a cellphone recording from some afterparty where stupid people were all talking over songs we've all been waiting for for decades
thanx! ;-)

what about that one 2-minute snippet of "the general" that leaked (lyrics below)? can someone clarify what that was? sounds like a cellphonerecording (poor quality) - but definitely like axl.
