  1. I wouldn't say better than Chinese but certainly not far behind it. What a record Ain't Life Grand is! Far superior to It's Five O'Clock Somewhere for me. I go back and forth whether Contraband or Ain't Life Grand is the best Slash's post GN'R album. I'd lean towards Contraband bacause I absolutely love Scott Weiland but man Rod Jackson was the shit. I wish they had done more together.
  2. Prime Axl is untouchable as a singer and a perfomer. The greatest of all time. Coolness personified.
  3. July 1999. I felt an instant connection. After just a few days of listening to Use Your Illusion 2 I proclaimed Guns N' Roses to be my favourite band. 24 years later and it is still my favourite band.
  4. That may be the case but I seriously doubt it. Not because I think this song cannot be "hated" or "disliked" but because people who are quick to criticise and denounce others people's artistic work and make hyperbole claims in the commentary sections don't really strike as the kind of people who would give it a few proper spins to see if they're missing something and determine it's value more consciously. I generally get the impression that becasue the song doesn't gratify them instantly it has to be "worst song ever released". But I feel like the positivity towards the song is gaining steam and deservingly so, IMO.
  5. Universal backlash my ass. I see a lot of people attempting to create this narrative that "everyone hates" The General but all I see is a bunch of knee jerk reactions and then a whole lot of people who actually gave it a proper listen or two and appreciate the song. A lot of positive comments as well. The nonsense posted on YouTube, Facebook or Twitter is totally insignficant to a brand of GN'R proportions.
  6. Perhaps but Monsters will overtake it once it gets released. I love Hard Skool, Absurd and The General as well. I hope they do State of Grace and Atlas Shrugged next. And release Monsters ASAP. Just keep 'em coming. I don't care during which sessions those songs were conceived and who played on what, I just want more GN'R music.
  7. Has anyone ordered the CD from that Japanese website? I've read stories how people were scammed by the site and how they increased the shipping costs once the item had been paid. Someone even claimed that his PayPal was hacked after buying from that website. I want the CD. It's also avaliable for preorder on ebay but it is more expensive there.
  8. So let me get this straight. She wanted to have sex with Axl but ended up sucking Riki's dick? Ooopsie. Then she heard Axl being abusive towards that other girl but still decided to stick around. Then she was dragged accross the floor violently and Axl proceeded to fuck her but she didn't actually say 'no' or try to make him stop because she was "weirdly enough, okay with this"? Then after being supposedly 'raped' she sucked his dick voluntarily and then proceeded to cuddle with him until the morning. And then bam, 34 years later she would like some sort of settlement for it? Seems legit.
  9. Innocent until proven guilty but the guy comes off as a gigantic douchebag, a self-centered and spoiled asshole with a huge inferiority complex and a sense of inexplicable entitlement. An a-hole through and through. That's my perception of him. I wouldn't be surprised one bit if accusations turned out to be true. If that is the case I hope they come down on him hard. Go Kat!
  10. It would be cool if they put together an album of new material and then offer these Chinese era left-over tracks they've done so far and will do in the future as a deluxe edition bonus disc. Wishful thinking I know.
  11. I love your review and the analytical approach but I personally absolutely love everything they've done so far. I do wish there was more variety in terms of verses in Perhaps and Monsters. The General too. I've always felt the verses are the strongest part of Axl's songwriting. I'm not bothered by the guitar work but it maybe isn't as memorable as it could have been. I'll be really disappointed if Perhaps, The General and Monsters appear on vinyl only. I want all of these songs on a CD. Including Hard Skool and Absurd. I have the EP but I would really love to have all of those songs on one disc. I don't get the Absurd hate. I personally really love that song. I'd love it if they experimented more with that kind of sound. Any sound really. There's just something magical in those Guns N' Roses songs for me. I keep reading people saying "this is filler or that is filler" or "I don't like this song and that song". I respect that, don't get me wrong. But for me they're all great. There's not a single GN'R song I dislike.
  12. I love it. LOVE IT! Been listening to both songs over and over again. I can't wait for the official release. I want more, more, more.
