To be fair, none of them on their own have produced anything remotely close to the heights of their heyday, but, I'd take Better, The Blues, TWAT, TIL, and Madagascar over anything any of them have done since 1993.

Slash 2010 had some bangers. I wish they would bust out one or 2 during GNR shows...

That’s actually common for Japanese releases. Live From The Jungle EP was the exact same so I’m not sure why people feel the need to bitch about it but I guess it’s Guns were talking about so that’s par for the course. 
No offense to you @Coma16!

I didn't know that, but no offense taken. The defense force is par on course for GNR, no offense!

Bummer to hear that Japan cd has unofficial lyrics... so bush league

I'd wait 2 days and chase it up if you don't hear anything. If you get it and it has hi res artwork then yours may be from a second batch or something. Pretty shitty they haven't updated you

Not counting on any updates, they didn't even email after the first date was cancelled... I just emailed asking wtf

Still? For the 7'' or CD? If 7'' I would contact them, it's been out 5 days you should have a dispatch email by now at least. If you mean CD I don't think that ships until the 20th

7 inch, from UMG Canada 🇨🇦

I got a shipping notification on December 8th, but when I track it, it says only the label has been printed. It's a lame tactic shitty companies do. They print the label well in advanced of actually shipping it out, to make it seem like they are speedy.

That's more than I received...

I still haven't received a shipping notification for mine yet...

Does anyone else thing SCOM could use a 3rd verse? Lyrics seem incomplete and repetitive.

I wonder what that material was Slash said he recorded "for Guns" some time around 2016. Was it just fiddling about with the old CD2 tracks, or did he actually create something new? Well, I guess we'll see. Or not. 

Rumor was Fatlas, which was supposed to accompany a new "best of". They released the successful GH 3 times since... Axl probably made Slash record Better as well lol

How does it sound on vinyl? Is there a rip floating around of both songs? Mine still hasn't shipped...

Anyone think Monsters will be wasted as a hidden track on the Japanese CD?

I'm pretty sure the art was intentional.

Do we finally have official lyrics?

Prices are wack but I couldn't resist seeing them at the Amphitheater in Toronto. Might get Lawns for the 2nd show....

A lot of the issues would be resolved if they used mixes from the CD-era. 

Caram gets shit on a lot but it seems to be more of a garbage-in garbage-out scenario

SOG: 7/10 (9 with no scratch vocals)

 

They may be scratch but they are also final vocals, intended this way (or more likely tooo lazy to update them)

Fuck knows how the band can sit there and approve shit like this. I mean, I like the song and it's cool it's finally released, but the mastering and mixing leave a lot to be desired.

What's the alternative, record the song from scratch? Not in this lifetime.

I just got an email about my vinyl finally shipping.

From which store?

Did they start shipping yet ?

Are there still scratch vocals? (That'll likely end up on a final release) 

The best part is that before the leaks came out everyone was saying the B side was SOG

That gold 'greatest hits' vinyl that nobody ever asked for has been delayed until the 19th of Jan

Didn't it ship weeks ago? I swear I saw people posting it on the facebook

He wanted to be allowed to sell some signed copies himself, if I remember correctly, but it didn't seem it was part of the agreement with him or any of the other artists.

If only he had a...... signed contract
