I don’t see s lot of Sabbath influence, quite frankly. Not in The General, not in Monsters. Yes, technically everyone that plays hard rock or metal has, is some level, Sabbath influences, but I’d say the NIN influence is way more present. A lot industrial and numetal sounds on Monsters, that’s for sure. A lot more in common witj Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and similar artists than to Black Sabbath.

I like Nothing. Kinda gives me the same vibe as Zep’s D’yer M’aker. If they finished working on the song, I hope Slash gives it more of a jam vibe, and the drums are replacee. It had potential, though.

That's cool....that Chinese made you a Guns fan...you don't hear that entry so often! 👍
Yeah, cause at the time I only knew the most famous songs... like WTTJ, SCOM, PC, KOHD, Patience... I think I didn't even know Nightrain, probably. This album clicked right away and so I started listening to old GnR because of it.
-
I remember buying it before even being a proper GnR fan, just because I saw it in the store and knew it was "the legendary album that never comes out, and has been in production for more than a decade". I put it in my car and got blown away. Especially when If The World and TWAT played. Became a fan that very day. I still love that album. Don't listen to it that much anymore, or to any GnR album for that matter, but I still consider it one of my favourite albums of all time.

People applying 2023 rules and expectations to 1989.
Simple fact is, people will or won't act a certain way based on what society deems acceptable. Treating women like this was far more acceptable in society back then. I'm NOT saying that was right, but stating that in that environment it wouldn't have been a totally unusual situation.
Now apply 2023 rules of society to it and that is NOT acceptable to people, and the likelihood of somebody acting that way is minimal at best.
The way Axl did or didn't behave back then is a product of societies rules in 1989, and he shouldn't be tried by 2023's rules.
Hell, we all agree that paedo's and animal fuckers are disgusting people that should be euthanised right? What if in 34 years society suddenly changes and declares those things to be OK? We'll all be in the dock for criticising them.
Look at the way that gay people were treated before the 70's in the UK - it was acceptable to jail them FFS! Society changes, and you should be judged by the rules of society and law at the time, not by the court of public opinion of people who weren't even born, or were barely out of nappies.
Holy shit one of the worst takes I've ever seen on these forums

Being sued for sexual assault when you're just about to put a song out about the subject....talk about synergy.
Fuck if this delays the vinyl again somehow...

I just don't get it. Why accusing him 34 years later. Fernando last week and now Axl? Coincidence? 🙄
It seems this has been said before, hasn't it? It's not easy to sue one of the most famous musicians in the world, who might have access to some of the best lawyers there are and to "anger" all of his fans. Especially in the 90s, when these cases meant nothing to public opinion and were more easily dismissed. Plus, it might be something she's struggling with to this day, trying to overcome, trying to turn the page, but after many years, she realized she wouldn't be able to move on without holding him accountable. There are many potential reasons.
-
If this turns out to be true, and this girl somehow proves what she's saying, or the judge has enough evidence to say Axl's guilty, it might be the last nail in the coffin for me regarding GnR

Anyone else here who hasn't received ANY update on their order? I ordered from the German/EU merch shop weeks ago. The money has been debited, but I have not received any mail update whatsoever. Not even concerning the delay.
Me neither. German store too. No update whatsoever.

I think Axl tasting Da Bomb is our biggest chance for the rasp to return
For real, I bought it and it tastes like burnt cigar butts and pain.

HS is a better song to me overall, better lyrics, catchy chorus and I like the montage/credits rolling vibe (in lack of a better word) of it. They should have pitched HS to a movie production, it's cinematic, good stuff.
If I had to choose between being only able to listen to IRS or Absurd, Hardskool, Perhaps, Monsters and The General ever again, I'd probably pick IRS. Not joking.

They released a video and featured the song on an ongoing tour.
I'd say it was promoted if this had happened:

Back in the day I remember thinking "I hope Andrew Stockdale doesn't leave Wolfmother for Slash" because of my love for Wolfmother but considering what became of Wolfmother after their third album, I am kinda sorry he didn't just leave to join Slash on tour for what could have been SASC (instead of SMKC). I mean... Impossible to watch this performance and not think "fuck this wouldve been so cool". Oh, Andrew... I love you voice so much, man... stop being such a nutjob, please

Albums:
10- Ghost - Phantomine EP
I wasn't very impressed by this release, but I really enjoyed Phantom of the Opera and Jesus He Knows Me. Marked the beginning of the year for me.
9- Stoned Jesus - Father Light
Stoned Jesus always brings some heavy hitters, but this one is extra special due to the darkness of the lyrical themes, being that Stoned Jesus are an Ucranian band that felt the cruelty and harshness of the Russian invasion. I highly recommend this to people that haven't listened to Stoned Jesus yet. Perhaps their best since Seven Thunders Roar.
8- Queens of the Stone Age - In Times New Roman
It was great to see QOTSA get back into shape after the dud that was Villains. Solid album, with some great tracks and excellent production. I love how this album sounds.
7- Lord Mountain - The Oath
Loved their debut EP, in 2016, which made 1st place in my list that year. While The Oath isn't as impressive as that, it still has some amazing tracks from a band that I think is just too good for this world.
6- Gorillaz - Cracker Island
While it isn't as strong as Gorillaz' 2020 effort, Song Machine, I really enjoyed Cracker Island. Silent Running is plain perfect, New Gold is a really fun team up with Tame Impala, and the other tracks are pretty good too.
5- King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - The Silver Cord
Hear me out: Get the extended edition and just let it play throughout your day while you work. It's so atmospherical, so good to listen to.
4- Metallica - 72 Seasons
Really like this one when it came out, but it kinda grew old pretty quick. Some great standouts like the title strack, Inamorata, Too Far Gone and Room of Mirrors, and some lameass filler in it, too. Still, solid album.
3- Graveyard - 6
Graveyard is such a cool band, specially in the studio. This is a very, very solid album. I highly recommend it. Standouts: Breathe In Breathe Out, Sad Song, No Way Out, Twice.
2- The Rolling Stones - Hackney Diamonds
Great album, also really good to listen to while you work. Some great moments like Depending On You, Live By The Sword and Whole Wide World. And man - Sweet Sound of Heaven is just beautiful.
1- King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation
Album of the year for me. Amazing thrashy and technical heavy metal that resembles the style of Infest The Rats' Nest, which I consider to be one of their best albums. This might be even better. A genius album, nothing more to say. Love it. If you're a fan of thrash metal, heavy metal, prog metal, etc... Listen to this. You will not regret it. Amazing.
Extra - Top 5 Singles:
- Beatles - Then And Now
- Judas Priest - Panic Attack
- Linkin Park - Lost

KISS has an actual coffin to bury people in. If I'm not mistaken, Dimebag Darrel was burried in one.

Hey, I really enjoyed She Hulk!
It wasn’t that bad. The finale was all over the place but the season was pretty ok. But I know the general public didn’t like it, though. Marvel would probably put her in that car for that 😂

The ending of Loki season 2 kinda wraps up the Kang narrative anyways (unless I misinterpreted it).
I mean... it does prevent Kang from destroying branch timelines, but it doesn't really prevent existing Kangs from taking over those timelines, etc.. (unless I also misinterpreted it)

I'd:
- Continue the singles plan for at least 4 more tracks
- Get the rest of the stuff they have from CDII and release an album with the 8 singles + like 4-5 previously unreleased CDII tracks
- Tour that shit in Europe
- Tour that shit in Asia and Oceania
- Tour that shit in North America
- Tour that shit in South America
- Return to studio, make a new album from scratch with this new line-up
- Tour that shit in Europe
- Tour that shit in Asia and Oceania
- Tour that shit in North America
- Tour that shit in South America
- Release a Live Era CD/DVD with material from this era
- Release everything in the vault as a deluxe edition boxset
- Do one last Farewell Tour all over the world
- Rest.

Both the writer and the director have now walked away. Wouldn’t be shocked if this whole movie gets canceled and they really do pivot towards Doom, as reports are suggesting.
It seems like it's going this way. Wonder how they'll manage to write off Kang and his infinite amount of variants.
"Have you heard of that terrible car carsh that killed all of the kang variants, the eternals and emilia clarke's character all at once?"
"Wow so sad... I heard She Hulk was in that too. What a tragedy"

Musical influence monsters and the general?
in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Posted
Probably because of the vocal effects, though. Ozzy would probably only sing a vocal line like this in his more recent albums. It's almost spoken, not sung. Almost a rap. Ozzy is known for very melodic vocal lines that match the main guitar riff, usually.
