Gonna go ahead and guess this is to sell axl rose merch only haha.

Should be out right now in nz. Another 2 hours to go for here in aus...

Ahhh gotchya. Thanks for the heads up!

im in australia and cant seem to find it on itunes, spotify or youtube music. Are we sure its out here? Haha

I'd love a 12 minute monster of a song with slash and maynard J keenan

Just commenting to say steve wilson nailed it with opeth on blackwater park!

Sorry, edited my post. But its super old school blues. Like, youd hear it at an old bar. But its fun and upbeat. Doesnt strike me as very slash-y or brian johnson (surely not the ac/dc brian) but quite enjoyable!

Listening in aus right now. Thoughts in a post below.

Edit. Single is out in aus. I posted in the main forum about it.

Hopefully: - NITL Bluray Live show - New double album with slash, duff (izzy?) - Chinese Democracy Sessions Complete Boxset - Bluray Illusions Tours - Axl autobiography - Axl deep dive interview - Axl doing vocals for that last velvet revolver album, or collaborating with Maynard Keenan, Matt Belamy or Jerry Cantrell or appearing on the last season of Curb your enthusiam (I can dream right haha).

Can someone enlighten me, why would the band leak something when they have the means to just release it officially? Is there another entity in charge of their music releases? My guess is the original vinyl had both songs and thats where they leaked from. It was close to the release date of that vinyl too.

This. Such a mystery for it to be on the internet somehow, along with the General.

I got the impression the general is primarily from axl's perspective during that time, where monsters is moreso about his mum's lack of comforting efforts about the situation. Like "i was there for you, it was all i could do. Well its over now" (stop dwelling on it, i did the best i could) kind of thing - with axl being displeased at his mum's disinterest to ackowledge it her fault.

Fucking love these songs. Listening to them as one song especially just works so well for me. I prefer the general over monsters, but then again i like omg and absurd, and early muse. Better than i expected.

"Do they think anyone with an iq over 15 is gonna believe that shit?"

I mean the physical copy is releasing today (apparently the UK store said 'releases'). It's a pretty reasonable assumption it would also release digitally. It's also a friday, which is seemingly when new music is released.

Well oh shit

Do we have any nz people to confirm for us haha

Well just over an hour to go....

I get over disappointment within a few minutes or an hour, but the hype feeling last for hours or days. Happy to ride the positivity.

Potentially (although knowing our luck, probably not) 2 hrs and 47 mins and it will be online

3hrs! Not 4! Even better.

Hahaha you just reminded me i never finished the Irishman!

Well, what do to for the next 4 hours? Binge curb your enthusiam? Play mario wonder or spiderman 2?

If its going on digital, would it be midnight thursday? Cant remember what happened with perhaps. Pretty sure it was midnight. Its 8am thursday in aus at the moment (and probably 10am in nz), so we may find out in about 14 hours.
