  1. That is also my favourites from the record and those are really good. I loved STP too, especially Purple and Tiny Music - way better than Velvet revolver I think
  2. There was a time Better Perhaps Sorry Soul monsters Street of dreams Chinese democracy This I love Prostitute Hard skool Catcher in the rye Atlas Shrugged Madagascar the General IRS Shacklers revenge Oh my God Scraped Rhiad and the bedouins If the World Absurd
  3. They have been better for each album! Scott Weiland didnt really fit on their more metal tracks, but was good on their melodic songs. The Scott Stapp album was too much radio rock I think and now it s a more progressive metal album and Jeff Scott Soto can sing it all - great album
  4. Yes I do, still think the releases apart from Absurd, is all great. Also Monsters. Hoping for a new single this year
  5. Let there be anarchy is out now and is one of the most enjoyable releases with Bumblefoot on guitar. Jeff Scott Soto is doing a helluva job too on vocals. This is the third record, previously with Scott Weiland (Velvet revolver, STP) and Scott Stapp (Creed), but this is the best release by some margin. More metal and more progressive though
  6. The new album is great, one of the best from last year and Nuno proves he is one of the most talented and gifted guitarist in the world. He also is a diverse songwriter and have had some great solo stuff and sideprojects like Dramagods and Population1
  7. I dont think it did anything on any chart, but also think the band not pushed the release at all because its in fact a deeper cut with lesser general appreciation. I love that we finally got it, but it has no commercial appeal to the general public - Monsters might have or maybe Atlas. Perhaps with the video being "pushed" did way better and were in some charts, think it peaked in the top 10 of the rock radio charts
  8. Will see Extreme, Tool and mr. Bungle at Tons of Rock festival Will se Pj Harvey and Pulp Mr. Big Bruce Dickinson Probably Dirty Honey
  9. Here is a interesting article about all the new tracks and they think they all comes from an upcoming album: https://rockcelebrities.net/guns-n-roses-new-song-strategy-with-slash-risks-and-gains-opinion/?fbclid=IwAR1w5Pbs6PigSC78B5I_mCFgh53vAPvqvntDwVYC5TSmCnEyi4qfPz1dO1o The writer does not dislike any tracks, but like the more old school cuts better, "Hard Skool" and "Perhaps"
  10. I dont really hear it (Spotify) and I have heard it on several tracks from other artists. Maybe im going deaf ate somebody is exaggerating
  11. Will not be done. And its not so bad that some of you are saying. It has been a general problem in music business for years and I am very aware and against the loudness wars, but you could find equally examples from hundreds of well known bands. Death Magnetic were miles worse as were some of the releases from U2, Bon Jovi etc.
  12. I go for Atlas and Monsters - both tracks might have some potential to hit outside of the hardcore fan-base. DO we actually know what the band is doing at the moment? Could they be in a studio now? It sounded like the plan earlier this year...
  13. Its not shit - its great! Thats just your opinion and my opinion, but what is shit is to take your bombastic meanings and speak it as a truth that you of course cant back up with any kind of proof
  14. The general is much better in an album context and i still love to open an album with the General (with orchestral intro about 2 min) followed by Monsters and State of grace and then some more melodic tracks like Perhaps and Atlas Shrugged. It s the complete Side A of a Vinyl album release
  15. The General is better and more interesting than half of Appetite! Yes I mean it..
  16. A lot of whiners in here A great song and hope they release rest of what is finished from CD sessions (guess Atlas, monsters, State of grace, quick song, Berlin and Seven)
  17. OK. My thoughts: It is still a good song - would have fit on Chinese democracy, some of the same moods as Sorry the mix - Must listen again but felt that the leaked mix had a better punch when the drum and guitar came in before chorus. Maybe cleaner and softer mix/master officially I think the leak including Monsters was intentional, also based on the wording from Fernando - The general is a monster! He knew that the anticipation was HUGE for this song, but the song we thought were the General was Monsters (soul monster) Based on reactions it was a good thing, because most people dig Monsters and are more skeptical to the General. It is a perfect B-side. Great and interesting song, not for everyone and not for the general (!?) public

  19. What if Monsters gets promoted as a new GNR song for a new album? The vocals might be new too apart from the bridge
  20. I usually play the general, Monsters and follow with State of grace - a trio of tunes with some darker themes then Perhaps is a feel good breather after that
