$20 we get another new Slash album before the gnr album.

Honestly I respect it.

...and a cover of goddamn Benny & The Jets... 

We've all seen so many crazy things in GNR world but I don't think we've ever seen a long, drawn out review (complete with supposed lyric quotes) for an album that doesn't exist. 

Holy shit. 

Next this guy is going to literally write and record a whole album with those track titles as he described it in the review.

I really can't fathom anyone reading these lyrics as anything but edgelord bullshit at best, genuinely racist/homophobic garbage from a small town hick at worst. 

If Axl and co *really* believed this was okay, or even cynically speaking they believed potential customers and the public as a whole would think it's okay, it would have been in the damn boxset. It wasn't. Because Axl grew up and Slash/Duff grew spines in their age and every person involved with it knows it isn't okay. 

The lyrics are just outright abhorrent. They sound like a Skrewdriver song.

You mean Everyone but Dave Kushner. Duff relapsed on pills. Xanax I believe?

Oh wow I got that mixed up, that's surprising

Honestly most interested in VR and how much he goes into basically everyone but Duff relapsing.

So we have this date, south america in march. I feel european and UK tour, hopefully asia and australia and then if a new album drops a full US tour, rinse and repeat.

Fixed.

Is this affiliated with the NFL at all?

Can’t lie Slash reeaaalllyyyy fucking phoned that solo in.

I really hate that the only way to get good Slash guitar playing these days is to listen to 3 minutes of Myles Kennedy and the Dad Rocks before it gets to the solo rinse repeat for 12 tracks.

Okay I need the cliff notes on what the hell is happening

Set lists are pretty dope this tour.

It would be wholly appropriate to put the rockband vox on these since the vocals were probably recorded back then

Man I haven’t listened to Locomotive in years. That is a hell of a fucking song.

This has his posts. I mean look at this shit.

Okay wow go through his reddit posts and see if you would want this guy be in charge of your local kinkos much less one of the largest touring acts in the world.

Maybe is on the missing CDs under another name?

 

It's just crazy because if it is the case... what was happening musically between when bucket left and when Bumble started doing overdubs? Was '02-'06ish just completely musically fruitless? They/Axl didn't write anything?

So... every song that ended up being released on Chinese Democracy was largely written and completed around 2000. Scraped is the only one that I'm not sure of.

I can see Slash on Oklahoma and Devious Bastard.

I haven't heard these-- Not too keen on downloading but what's the difference in this versus what's been getting leaked a single song at a time?

Is it just the studio mix of the tracks that is better? Are they full 44.1khz CD quality files or still low quality mp3s?

Did this get leaked as a like a full zip of an album or singles of newer versions? 

320 kbps, so not bad quality. The mixes are great in comparison and don't feature the weird audio watermarks the hoarders had on previous single releases of perhaps and atlas with weird beat skips and stereo jiggering. The mixes, for being rough, sound great. Definitely not yet mastered, so it is a notch below the actual sound of Chinese Democracy but still incredible and worth having.

Anyone have nice artwork for a rumored 2000 Intentions? Or was Chinese Democracy known as an album name at this point?

I want every person who didn't like Chinese Democracy to listen to this.

*This* should be the leak thread that blows up. *This* is the holy grail. *This* is the original Chinese Democracy, and holy fuck why did this not come out?
