GNR was still extremely popular in America in 1992-1993, much more so than Nirvana. Nirvana truly exploded after Kurt's death around the Unplugged airing. People were lining up to buy the Illusions records in late 1991. "November Rain" was one of the most highly-requested and played songs on MTV in all of 1992. It was the disappearance of GNR and the breakup that caused them to fade in popularity. Certainly not Kurt's antics.

First Looney Tunes...now Scooby Doo!
GnR Chris replied to CAFC Nick's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
So Boomerang isn't an actual TV channel anymore? How do we watch this besides signing up for the app? Edit: I see it is for some providers but my cable provider doesn't carry it. -
First Looney Tunes...now Scooby Doo!
GnR Chris replied to CAFC Nick's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
These seemingly random cartoon appearances are pretty dope, especially the Looney Tunes one considering it featured Axl actually singing. But I have to admit both times my first thought was, where's the new album? I just wish my favorite band gave me a new record to spin in quarantine. That's all I'm saying. -
I never really liked DJ Ashba. Something about him just screamed clown. I didn't like Bumblefoot either, but at least he could shred. Ashba was the Wish dot com version of Slash. People wanna say the NITL gang are in it for the "loot," but if anyone was in GNR for the money, it was Ashba, who name-dropped GNR or Axl all the time to push his personal ventures. The guy used GNR every chance he got, right till the end with that BS letter explaining why he left. I've been to a bunch of live shows, and I don't really see this supposed lack of chemistry between Axl and Slash.

Foo Fighters are releasing their 10th studio album on Feb. 5. It was originally slated for 2020 to coincide with their 25th anniversary, but it was delayed due to the pandemic. Dave Grohl had this to say: “So, six or seven months went by, and I’m, like: ‘We make this music for people to hear. We don’t just make it so that we can go hit the road. We write these songs so people can enjoy them and sing along, whether it’s in their kitchen by themselves with a bottle of Crown Royal or in a stadium bouncing around, singing the choruses. So, I was, like, right now, more than ever, people

Band with Slash, Weiland and Trujillo’s son
GnR Chris replied to GS67's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Subject should read: Band with Slash's, Weiland's, and Trujillo's sons. The way it's written, it's like you're saying there is a one-man band featuring the son of all three bandmembers. When multiple people possess the same item, the apostrophe and S are used on the final name listed (as in the subject head above). When the possession is separate rather than joint, you use possessive form for all names mentioned. Example: John's and Mike's homes are completely furnished. John and Mike each own their own home. John and Mike's home is completely furnished. John and -
What song should Guns close with?
GnR Chris replied to ssiscool's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
It's really hard to argue against "Paradise City." It's become a permanent fixture as the closer and for good reason. The way they incorporated the confetti and the fireworks, and just the way the song builds with a simple guitar strum, then launches into an driving riff, culminating into a cacophony of sound. And then, lyrically, it makes sense: "Oh won't you take me home." It's their go-home song. It's great. ALL that said, I tend to agree with others that "Nightrain" could also work. But it wouldn't be as good. -
Your views on GNR's 2020

Imagine if they released a photo like that with a four-second clip of something on Twitter. This forum would shut down due to server overload. -
Your views on GNR's 2020
GnR Chris replied to allwaystired's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
For me, 2020 highlighted the fact that Guns N' Roses will under no circumstances release new music. They are content to be a touring juggernaut. If they can't find time to record an album during a worldwide pandemic, they never will. I'd bet almost anything there is not one completed studio track. It's pathetic. -
Bruh. I have heard these boomers say countless times they don't want new music or they don't care about new music. It's one thing to just be all, "I'm stuck in 1987 forever." But it's another to actively say you hope they don't release new music as if it somehow erases their past work. These fans literally want to go hear "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" at every concert for the rest of their lives and relive that half decade of the '80s/early '90s for the rest of their time.

Disagree with this assessment. It isn't dreadful. They just went for a contemporary record by design. Corgan wanted to make something synth pop. Which is cool. It's different. There's something that any Pumpkin fan can like on it, at least a song or two. I have to listen more for a true review. I like that he keeps trying to do new things. Next record is supposed to be a rock opera.
