We know they are three partners. Unlike you I don’t pretend to know the details. When reading your posts, I get the impression Duff and Slash are employees like Fortus, just better paid. I don’t believe that for a second.

Great 🤣 ignoring facts and official documents just to cement their opinions 😬

I don’t know. I think they both had their issues with each other and probably interpreted the behaviour of the other completely wrong. They didn’t talk directly and built their minds on middlemen’s fair speaking, press and their own imagination. The success has outgrown them and it’s easy for young guys in their position to bluster over such topics.

Thanks for that 😂😂 All there’s written is the typical Axl blah blah where everything is everybody’s fault but his. It doesn’t take away what he has written in the chats, does it?

Did he really say that? Later, I think on the chats here, Axl said Slash was the reason he couldn’t do a classic hard rock record because he left and there isn’t anybody else filling these shoes, something like this.

Of course they can. Confirmed: Next GNR record will be instrumentals only 😂

They don’t promote the band that way, though and Slash said he never signed a contract (which would have made him an employee).

For me it could easily replace 6 tracks on CD. Saying it couldn’t is ABSURD.

It has its moments but it goes nowhere with the guitars to low in the mix iirc… but I‘m pretty sure there will be some gems on the new one.

It’s a bit Prodigy -ish imo. I would describe it as electro punk, too. I think most CD fans who dislike Absurd, dislike it because of Axl‘s vocals and its repetitiveness. I don’t mind it. I dislike the main riff, which is pretty soulless imo, but Slash‘s leads are great and I still love the „Fuck You“ it meant to many fans 😅

Yeah, that snippet sounds awesome. Do you remember VR covering Pink Floyd‘s Money? That started awesome too but that jam afterwards was not that good imo. I really hope for great instrumental parts apart from the song performance itself.

It sounds very promising but I’m afraid of to high expectations. That often leads to a disappointment.

Is it one of those guys you send the latest GNR releases, which he didn’t like? What about this?

I think it’s as honest as it gets.

Nice thing about music is, you don’t have to choose. You can listen to more than one version. Killing Floor is the best example. I read many comments saying we don’t need another version of the song, because Jimi Hendrix version will not be topped. I don’t care really. I can listen to Hendrix version, to the Lemon song and I can listen to the new version without a problem. I can prefer the one over the other and still listen to all of them.

Who‘s the little angel and who‘s the devil on the shoulder 😂

Listen to‘em, listen to‘em, listen to‘em. These are like 10 sec snippets. Just a little teaser. A small fortaste of a few songs. Not of all of them

I think there’s so much room to jam on, when looking on the run time of the songs. We‘re gonna see.

Yeah I get that HOF thing. Just wondering which video they awarded over NR in this category back then.

Everything taste and opinions but really? Blind Melons version over Steppenwolfs? Not for me…

Is there a category best music video?

Agree, but he is no magician. You have to give him something to work with.

Yes, critics in general.

If I‘m not misinformed AFD was reviewed pretty bad when it was released. Nobody paid attention to the record at first. It took a whole year till it went number one on the Billboard Charts. No chance for a grammy back then. It’s a different story with yLies and the Illusion records, though.
