  1. Playing wise, nobody makes the drums sound as cool and flowing as Steven Adler.

    Matt is a very different kind of drummer, his work on the Illusions is good.

    His style fits great with some songs (Ycbm, Locomotive, Double talking jive, etc.), for the more Appetite style tracks as in looser rock n roll tracks, Stevie would be so much better.

    For the NITL tour I wish Steven Adler was the only drummer.

  2. Just read an Interview with Stevie Nicks, she got asked about doing a new Fleetwood Mac record. Here's her answer:

    "I don't think we'll do another record. If the music business were different, I might feel different. I don't think there's any reason to spend a year and an amazing amount of money on a record that, even if it has great things, isn't going to sell. What we do is go on the road, do a ton of shows and make lots of money. We have a lot of fun. Making a record isn't all that much fun."

    Combine that with super high expectations and Axl being Axl and Izzy being pissed...I guess it's safe to say we're all fucked. :D
    Sad but probably true.

  3. 1 hour ago, Malcolm Malcolm said:

    I think the leftover Chinese Democracy material should be released as part of a multi-disc box set covering that era including the album. Axl should just clear the vault and start from scratch with Slash and Duff on any new material. He wouldn't have to worry about chart placements and sales with a box set either and it would be a neat way of packaging that era.

    Good point about the box set/ chart placement worries.
    Since this makes so much sense, not gonna happen! :D

  4. I think it would be almost cruel not to release something new...but it could very much be the case anyway.

    I really hate the fact that the whole reunion thing got such a bad taste because of everything regarding Izzy and Steven. That alone makes me lose a lot of interest in a new album.

    If they do it anyway there shouldn't be CD leftovers, write something new with the current band. Using already recorded vocals from ages ago would be super lame. The artistic value of something like that would be zero and therefor an insult to the gnr name. Imo.

  5. It sounds cool indeed.

    When you think about it - for me, this was one of the greatest things about Guns for me when I first discovered them...bought AfD on cassette in 1987...first time I heard it I thought someone else is singing lead vocals on It's so easy because it sounded  so differnet to the first song, Jungle.

    I still think it's beyond cool that Axl got all these different voices.
