Fernando?

lol, every single comment on their latest Instagram post is asking about “The General.”

I also have to admit I had a lot of fun the last couple days in the lead up to shipment announcements or prospects of “The General” on streaming platforms. Then the entire shift here once those first delay details went through has been quite the sight. We went into combat mode, there have been open invitations for fights, we hate this band … We’re at the point we’re turning on one another, about to start eating each other like piranhas.

I edited the first one for a typo when I meant to say “over and over.” The second one above was edited because I forgot to respond to your comment about the way they perform it live. Personally, I’m enjoying how we’re all melting down over this the moment those emails hit our inboxes. This band is such a fuckin’ joke.

I’m tired of people perpetuating the silly notion that it’s a mistake in “Absurd.” It wasn’t a “lazy” mistake they didn’t feel like fixing. All it takes is dragging the track with your mouse to sync it how you want. Also, I’m not being condescending. I straight up called you out for your dog shit opinions. Edit: Also, they sing a lot of stuff different live versus the studio album. But you know who helps recreate what you hear on the studio tracks? Melissa.

For the last time, “Absurd” edit is not a mistake. It was a choice. One you may not agree with, but a choice nonetheless. You really think several people listened to it over and over before sending it off to the ether and no one noticed? Melissa is great. Your entire post was cringey.

I did without hesitation. 😂 So this moron right here.

My order from Duff’s store was canceled because I didn’t opt to keep it. I didn’t even realize I had to opt in. I saw the delay email and thought nothing of it. Then I saw my account was credited back. They ended up sending me the stuff for free and apologized about the inconvenience.

But I preordered when it first dropped and just got the email. Despite what the site still says, it’s been delayed. Soon is NOT the word.

We should all cancel our orders. Fuck them. (I chose to keep mine.)

LOL, yup. Delayed till 12/8/23 (United States).

Where is the confusion, at least for fans here in the states? When I preordered my Perhaps vinyl, it said it will be shipped on Oct. 27, 2023. I don’t expect an email confirmation till tomorrow, and if I don’t get one, I wouldn’t be surprised that “plans changed.” But regardless, that means I should get another email stating it’s delayed. I was hoping “The General” would drop on Spotify on Friday as well. But to quote a band that actually does release new music, The Menzingers, “They say hope is a dangerous, dangerous little thing.”

I’m gonna laugh so hard if this vinyl arrives and the song isn’t on Spotify. I will 100 percent purchase a turntable. Meaning I will be out upwards of at least $100 in total just to listen to one song.

LOL funny so many last-minute orders. I preordered immediately because I enjoy wasting money. I would have done it with or without "The General" too. If this band releases music, I will buy the physical media. I won't purchase toy trucks. However ... lowkey want a magic 8-ball.

Axl had a window of 20 years to release those songs with Bucket and Finck on them. lol

Yeah ... listening to some soundcheck or whatever he was doing. My point stands. Axl isn't tormented by Slash "ruining" his vaulted material by recording over Buckethead and Finck. That's such a ridiculous notion. The guy literally couldn't be bothered to record new "hey, heys" for the bridge in "Hard Skool" so they went back and lifted them from "Eye on You."

There wasn't any proof "Perhaps" was coming either. They have not promoted ANY new single prior to dropping it on digital streamers. Yeah, we found the link for "Perhaps" on their link tree thing, and the countdown. That was all removed. Then the song still showed up. We know "The General" is shipping on vinyl. That's enough evidence it's gonna drop at some point on streaming sites.

Yeah, so painful for Axl. The guy who hoards his music, doesn't release it, and no longer seems to want to work in a studio at all. It must be sooooo painful for poor Axl.

Stop

Don’t forget they also use the gnr dot link dot to.

😂 😂

Did we ever find out the identity of the mystery person who casually dropped “Sorry” lyrics in this forum well before the album dropped?

Mmhmmm

“The General (Monstrosity)” would be a cool name. “The General” is fine. “The General and Monsters” is as silly as “Skool” and the way they spell absurd. Why, GNR? Why?

Yes, in an ideal world we’d get “Atlas” and another song, then a full album with 10 or 12 tracks we’ve never heard. But this is GNR. So it’ll be “The General,” then nothing. 🤔
