Something tells me there are a lot more “unreleased/unheard” stuff circulating, just not for our ears .

I was there for all of them! First time in NYC too. Amazing experience and great fucking shows!

I hear…Monsters Dead, Can’t Get Me

Sorry what’s the fascination with W. lineman? ☺️ The General bass line is super cool. The song is growing on me, but the bass is wicked!

Agree with this! Best last two minutes ever IMO!

His own 😂

I’ve never known it as Me and My Elvis, it always comes up as Soul Monster. People are saying they are the same, but Soul Monster is what I always call it.

I think we all have, it’s an instrumental on the village leaks. It’s the only Soul Monster I have heard.

I don’t see the similarity between Soul Monster and Monsters. Outside of Beltrami these are different songs. Wander what these songs sounded like with Bucket and Finck!

Lots of great vocal layers to the song. One of the more “cool” songs from the GnR’ catalogue by far!

Well Soul Monster is an instrumental and I don’t see the comparison between the two. The only thing is that Axl said recorded some mean vocals on Xmas eve, which I’m assuming we have associated to Monsters. Unless I’m missing something…

If it 100% then I can guarantee you won’t have BH on any of the songs! All his parts will be re-recorded. Would be cool to have BH and Slash on a recording tho. Find out on Dec 8 😉

Yeah, sounds like Buckethead to me, not saying that Fortus can’t do it, but I don’t see Slash trying to replicate that sound just to re-record it, but maybe. Doesn’t seem like Slash’s style at all. I think both these songs are demo’s.

I do believe these are one song split into two for ease of transfer. Nothing has come up on how old these are, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are changes on the final versions, especially the General.

Confirmation of that??

I have to agree with 3rd verse, and with the favorite moment as well. Nice to hear Axl sing like that again, brings a huge smile to my face every time I hear it!! I do not like the re-work of Hard Skool, should have left that song alone, it was perfect on the demo. Absurd is a throwaway for me, shouldn't be on any least IMO. I do hope The General has been re-worked and this is an early version cause there are some good elements to the song but I find the mixing atrocious and the distorted chorus annoying.

I agree, but don’t that does the song justice, maybe the message.

The General would sound so much better if the vocals on the chorus weren’t distorted. I also hear a lot of those locker leaks in these songs. I hear quick song ooh ooh in Monsters a bit, or a style of it in the background and yes I can see how Soul Monster became this…kinda cool to see how different working songs can be mixed or used to make a finish product.

I think the consensus is that it’s Slash playing on Monsters. If it’s not, kudo’s for whomever tried to mimick his style, you got me!

Maybe we are getting a 10”, seems like we are getting these songs on the December release.

The General seems unfinished, I’m hoping the finished version sounds much better. 💯 that’s Slash on Monsters. We’ve all been listening to GnR’ since we were kids, we know his tone, that’s him!!!

Like I said previous, I haven’t listened to The General cause Monsters is on repeat constantly!

Anyone have the lyrics to Monsters??

Totally agree, and I don’t see why they are the same song. One is a throwaway and the other is a hit!

They def don’t sound like one song 😂
