It's a cool visual indeed but I think you're all looking too much into it.

Holy shit. That must've been magical for hardcores.

I quite enjoyed it, actually.

This would be my list: Loved it Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3 WandaVision Spider-Man: No Way Home Loki Season 1 Moon Knight (except for the final episode, basically) I liked it but didn’t love it Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Werewolf by Night Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Hawkeye The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Wasn’t sure how to feel about it The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantamania She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Didn’t like it Eternals What If…? Thor: Love and Thunder Black Widow Secret Invasion Ms. Marvel Didn’t watch it I Am Groot

That school bell is cringe AF. The single cover is also pretty cheesy. Even if it's a nod to the locker leaks. 99.9% of the people would never know, and it would give that Green Day Dookie vibe that's so outdated and cringe.

* - if the record/re-record vocals: Thyme The General Hard Skool Atlas Shrugged Oklahoma* Devious Bastard* Perhaps Absurd State of Grace* Zodiac* Eye On You* Me and My Elvis* Monsters Nothing If they don't record/re-record vocals: Thyme The General Hard Skool Atlas Shrugged Oh My God Absurd Perhaps Monsters Nothing

Got my tickets. Will be attending the Paris show

I know most will disagree and some will want to kill me for this but, IMO, TWAT is the greatest GnR composition ever. SCOM and Estranged do come really close second, though.

I'm thinking it's a hidden track too

It's like the GnR ouroboros timeloop paradox

I agree there's too much going on in that song.

Nah. It's the best since CD, for sure but TWAT, Catcher in the Rye's outro and Prostitute are, in my opinion, far superior.

Well, so much for "The General and Monsters is one song, you have to treat them like the same creation, they complement each other and should be listened to as one piece of work" Guess not, according to what we're seeing.

And he also recorded his two concert solo songs, Mi Amor and Ballad of Death.

I wish I got to see KISS more times. Saw them twice. First time was amazing, one of the best concerts of my life. Second time was back when Paul was really weak vocally and Gene had to sing most of the setlist, so it wasn't that good. Plus the venue sucked. But man, love this band.

I sure hope so. It'd be really frustrating to only get Monsters many months from now, knowing it's more popular among the fans who have heard it than The General

I loved both The General and Monsters. Especially Monsters, but the drums sound so digital in the beginning of The General. I don't know why not put organic drums with more character to them. Count using the hi-hats, snare and bass drum like a normal human would. To me, it seems like "real drums" only come in for the chorus. The bass on that same intro is really awkward too. Kinda like an AC/DC bass line. Same thing with the drums, up until the chorus. But this time I think it fits the song a lot more. Still, really enjoying these songs.

You top 5 is very similar to mine. But I I'd put Homecoming before Winter Soldier. Not sure, but probably.

That’s what I was saying the other day. My band has 5K as the entire budgey per album, and our last two album’s mixes are about in the same level as Perhaps, Hard Skool and Absurd. These dudes are not knowing how to spend their money properly.

I’m always impressed about how you’re like the freaking GnR oracle, Blackstar 😂

I love Going Down. In an ideal world, Duff would re-record it to sing it live instead of Attitude or whatever he does nowadays while Axl gets some air

I agree and think Hardskool is kind of a shallow, bland song, like the typical SMKC songs, Shotgun Blues, Get in the Ring, Nice Boys, Reckless Life, etc… not a fan of this type of song at all. GnR showed numerous times they can make more serious and mature songs that shows they have progressed as artists. Not a fan of when they go AC/DC or Motorhead on us and make another song that sounds like it could have been a filler track of an album they released in their 20s. And the school bell at the beggining, the name "Hard Skool" with the K and all, IMO, is greally cringey. Almost to a Green Day "elderly punks" vibe. Not a big fan of Hard Skool, hope the new songs go more in the Perhaps/Atlas direction or the General/Monster direction. That being said, Absurd is much, much worse though I’d give Hard Skool a 4/10 or something like that. As for Absurd… something like a 2/10. Perhaps would be much higher, though.

This is my rank: Monsters 8 Perhaps 7 The General 5 Hardskool 4 Absurd 2 EDIT: I'd put Going Down as also an 8 and Atlas Shrugged a 5 like The General

Monsters is stuck in my head all day, but The General I find kind of hard to remember at times
