The story got picked up here in Belgium as well, just heard it on a rock radio.

There’s so much going on, it’s so strange ha ha

We can’t keep up.

Scraped, Silkworms, OMG, Riad, Atlas Shrugged, Eye on You etc are utterly appalling and not the work of a perfectionist.

It's the work of a guy at a complete standstill creatively throwing shit at a wall and trying to create something.

You keep going with the same argument, I'm starting to think you don't get it.

I don't troll.

The thought of a 'perfectionist' releasing an album with songs Sun 41 and Avril Levine would be embarrassed of is nonsense.

Some of the album is fantastic but it's not the work of a perfectionist.

Seems to me like you associate perfectionism with creating something beautiful. The second is subjective and the first applies only to the one doing the work, that will keep on going until satisfaction is reached.

The nonsense about him being a perfectionist needs to be put to bed.

He released an album with Scraped and Riad on it.

He's just released Silkworms as a single.

He's not a perfectionist.  He's lazy and unmotivated and has a tiny body of work to pull from, hence the constant reworking of poor to average demos.

Looks more like you don't like those songs and you don't know how to make an argument about it. Or you just troll.

When did he feel the need to start apologising before performing new material? It's one fucking song. 

I believe it's called a joke.

On the first verse, the screaming fucking banshee part seems to be out of sync, I wonder if that's intentional.

 

It overlaps with the previous lyric, it’s unsettling or annoying - I haven’t decided yet. But I firmly believe it’s intentional.

This might sound weird but the last minute and a half of Prostitute. It slowly fades into this cinematic orchestration. It actually stops me in my tracks and I have to pause and appreciate it. It’s not a sad emotional reaction. It’s more of awe inspiring kind of feeling. A feeling of finality. Kind of reminds me of chapters that end and a book closing forever.

I does leave me with a peaceful feel as well. That all has been said, a,d all will be well - at long last.

I guess Estranged is the one song that ‘makes me think/contemplate’ stuff.

Yes Estranged for me too. It came randomly the other day while I was riding my bike, it was dark and I was in the forest - so "isolated" and the song hit hard. It probably helps that it's my fav GN'R song.

Wait until he gets beaten in an election and refuses to concede......that will be a whole new scale. I can genuinely see it happening. 

Either way I think the world is fucked. If he wins he'll lose the last bit of restrain he has. If he loses we'll be up for that scenario of yours.

Yeah thank god this old 80s hair metal band has the BALLS to take on Trump.   FINALLLLLLY.   NOOOBODY in the mass media, entertainment industry, or the internet have spoken out against him in the last five years.   But FINALLY someone is brave enough to do it and it just happens to be our favorite band GNR, known since the 80s for having a sterling reputation of good behavior and morals.

One is a rock n' roll band. THe other is the US president. I think they might be subjected to different standards.

I don't like Trump.   Ever since I first saw him on TV back in the 80s he just came off as a smug blowhard.

But I have never in my life witnessed the mass hate of ONE individual infiltrate and seep into every single aspect of my life.

Movies, TV, comic books, cartoons, fucking internet forums about bands......I can't.  Fucking.  Escape.

 

Just for ONE day....ONE DAY.....how nice it would be to not have to read and hear the word TRUUUUUUUUMMMMMPP   every five milliseconds.  

It's exhausting.   I'm so goddamn tired of it.

 I'm like you, in the sense that I can't stand the man but I'm watching everyday what he's up to - ever since 2015. Every. single. day. And I'm not American, go figure. But I have never seen such a person in my whole life, nor have I witnessed someone that can somehow escape any kind of consequences regardless of what he does and says. It's just mesmerizing in a way.

If there’s a political song, I hope it’s one that eviscerates that Trump clown and his cohorts. But at this point I’d even take Axl singing pancakes recipe - that’s how badly I want something new.

People with literally nothing more in their lives.

Not even worth discussing them really - just a few keyboard warriors who think this sort of thing makes them in someway powerful or important as no-one in the real world wants anything to do with them. Bullies and cowards essentially. 

They'd also rather this site closed down than exist, as people here give them the contempt they deserve. I expect they also probably spend their time creating alt-accounts to post on here as they're banned. 

You're dealing with the arse-end of the internet here, sadly. 

I don't even know what to say. What's the objective here, remove the band entirely from YouTube? Keep only what they decide is ok?

I mean, this is a pretty strong marketing tool.

And it's already gone.

Who does this?? I just don't get it.

That Ken Tamplin guy made a few videos reacting to Axl's UYI era vocals. Some of the criticism is valid but he also picked one of Axl's worst performances from the UYI tour. 

 

Well first of all there's absolutely nothing of value in this guy's "reactions". Just comments about the look, Slash's guitar etc. Way to go for a vocal coach.

Secondly, he is highly annoying / irritating to watch and listen to - at least to me.

Does Jarmos/HTGTH fb-post right noe saying that NITL-tour has come to an end. As in end of the whole NITL? Something New from now on,? 

That's how I see it, and with the next tour being a new cycle to promote something else. But then I'm a pretty positive person

There are no videos of the show?

I'm sure that some of those alt. songs on the setlist will eventually be played.

Estranged, It's so Easy, There Was A Time, Patience and Nightrain (but the RAR 2006 live version).
