Reopening this thread that @sofine11made yesterday.

We were in contact with Fernando directly today. He was asked 3 times throughout the conversation if the reddit account was his, but he chose not to answer that question during the course of the conversation. 

So... due his dodging of a direct question (THREE times!) we'll just assume the account is his. 

Shouldn't the direct question he was dodging have been "Is there a confirmation of a new album in the next 6 months?"

It just occurred to me after listening to Quick song that all of that "Hey Hay Hey Hay"  might have been filler with actual lyrics to come.  Is that something we knew was the case already? I can't keep up with what's what.

At the very end it sounds like he's making a chicken sound "Buck-AWK!!"

Axls deep voice is on track 3.

Is that true?  Is there a new track with Axl vocals?

The most important thing about this CD is the sound quality.

Zodiacs insane

I agree with the sound quality, I look at Atlas in a whole new way now.

Am I the only person that thought of this when listening to Zodiac?

It's kind of poetic justice, all of the songs wrestling stole from rockers, including GnR, but still...

I’m assuming this is the worst song left that has full vocals.....and yet it’s kinda growing on me. It’s way better than silkworms 

I keep hearing there are 2 more tracks with vocals, but who knows.

I thought it was supposed to be Patience and YCBM 

That sounds right.  I'm probably getting confused with so much going on.

Is this from the 99 re-recording of AFD?  The 2 songs not on the original were KOHD and YCBM, right?  Is this the version they did for that rerecording?

It is NOT GnR.  It's not even a "maybe"  This thread really should be locked.

is this real?  I haven't seen anyone talking about it at any of my usual pick up places.

Think a new tour will be announced?

I thought they have a planned tour?  You mean adding dates?

State of Grace is taking the lead in what I want to listen too over and over again over Perhaps, and I'm not ashamed to say it.

I love this song, but that part at 2:23 or 2:25 where he sounds like he forgets the words is funny as fuck.

Huh? 

On the media player, it shows a picture of the village people when you play it.

I think the 13 seconds that was teased is like the worst part of the song.  Perhaps is getting a lot of love, but I really like this song too.

Whoever was trying to sell it needs to share the remaining tracks with me, I'll tell you what to make a sample out of!

OMG, Goat, if you haven't done this, in the snowy areas, shoot out the ice from under the baddies.  I have no idea why it is so satisfying, but damn, it is!

I enjoyed the very first Gears for the Xbox 360 but never bothered playing the follow ups.  I tried the one after Gears 3 and found it incredibly boring and derivative.  Microsoft was giving away Gears 4 last month as part of Games with Gold and I played a bit of it.  Seems alright.  Not sure if I'll ever get to this one.  Seems to be getting pretty decent reviews though.

GOW5 is free for some levels of Gold (really confused by it to be honest)  I didn't buy it.  It's worth a play, and better than 4 imo.

The snow effects in this game are pretty amazing.  The little puff of snow when you walk in it is really pixilated and weak, but the physics are amazing, the tracks, the way the snow cracks slightly radiating out from where you stepped.  I'm stupid impressed by it for it being such a small thing.

I'm enjoying Gears 5 apart from the server issues. I got the $2 2month Game Pass Ultimate deal. I'm on PC so how is Game Pass PC any different?

P.S. I haven't received any notification like that regarding my 1080ti but I did notice I only averaged something like 85fps in the benchmark(1440p everything maxed out) and I like to use vsync at 75fps. Will probably get a 3080ti when that's out, it fucking better not be priced like the 20 series.

I didn't get that error today, so maybe it's fixed.  I think the only difference is that it includes my XBL sub, and a few games (maybe)

Is anyone saying that it's a real song though? I though that the general consensus was that it's more of an idea of a song. In other words it's not even half complete. Every song has to start from something and these are the first steps of a GNR song. These are all very rough demos and this is the roughest one so far.

 

People are very clearly saying that it is a real, complete song.  It's real lyrics, and a real song.  If I read correctly, the clip was a heavier part and most of the song is slower.  Anyway, I've seen multiple people who are familiar with the contents of the locker CDs confirm this is 100% GnR and 100% an actual song.  Hopefully it will just leak soon so we can hear it.  My guess is it will.  (100% conjecture on my part) I get the feeling that too many people have hands on that it's all going to leak soon, so the hoarders can sell now, or have paid for songs everyone has.  I get very anxious thinking about leaks, and I'm not very anxious now, I feel like we're going to get it all soon, and we can argue about what is good/bad vs. what is real/fake.

Fingers crossed.

The vocals are phoned in, but sound awesome nevertheless. Hopefully we get more soon.

Some people leak clips to 'advertise' them to others for sale or trading purposes. The point is pretty moot here though, as SOG is allegedly circulating among some hands.

I guess what I don't get is why distort the clip?  If I was trying to sell a leak, I would want it to sound perfect.  I fully understand that this happens, I just don't get the logic.  It's like selling your car and fucking up the image so people can't get a good look at it, or making a profile on Plenty of Fish and only showing a picture of you that is 70 feet away.... who looks at that and thinks "Oh, shit, I bet they are hot as fuck up close!"

  I mean, I'm not a part of the shady world of leaks, but it would seem like you would be proving you had a quality audio copy would work better.  It's just weird.  If someone was trying to sell me the song based on a low quality clip, I wouldn't give them shit.  "Sir, would you be interested in a dozen of my fresh peaches? Here is a rotten one to sample!"  The whole fucking premise is so weird.

Blair Witch was really hyped in a few sites but seems boring af to me.  It's like that old Slenderman game where you walk in the woods, but with better visuals, and a pet dog.

Gears of War 5 is basically another Gears of War, nothing too impressive.  One hilarious LOL bug, it WORKS FINE and runs like butter, but I get a message that my 1080ti is "An older, unsupported GPU" and they recommend an upgrade every time I launch it... which again, lol.  I think it was triggered by the game supporting RTX whilst the 10 series does not.

Anyway, FYI for any other gaming nuts out there.

That's just ridiculous. It's a news site. They're supposed to bring news, not what bands dictate. If they're so scared of ruining their relationship with GNR (I wonder if they even have a relationship with GNR), why would they all report on Axl trying to get his fat picture off the internet? Makes no sense at all. They did report on the rumours about reunion and about Izzy and his loot. Why on earth would they be hesitant to report on something that anyone who's interested could just google?

I think this is all a case of GnR hardcore fans living in their own bubble.  It's not on the news because it isn't newsworthy.  Let's all take a deep breath and put this into perspective:  These are 20 year old unfinished demos.  That's not relevant outside of our bubble.  Something like that would only be relevant on a national news level is it was like MJ, the Beatles or Prince, maybe Tupac and Biggie and I'm sure there might be a few more I'm not thinking of.   I suppose if it was the original lineup, it might have a slim chance to be news, but it isn't the original lineup.  This isn't national for any reason other than the fact that it isn't that big of a story.  There is no grand conspiracy of suppression, it's unfinished demos from two decades ago with what amounted to session musicians.
