GNR just posted a photo of their setlist asking ‘what would you add?’ I think the last time they did that was when HARDSKOOL was about to come out and we all knew of the sound checks etc 

Just went back in time to check haha. That post was on September 9th, and the song came out on the 24th, which gives a 15 day window

Just to keep clinging to hope, the queen song (Face it Alone) didn't come out in NZ (via VPN) either.

Still one friday left in September.  

Russian Democracy starts now

A question to ponder, on the topic of “Going Down”

 

Oh My God (for me at least) does not yield any GNR results on Spotify. Despite this being a song literally released under the Guns name. Going Down and Perhaps, both also talked about a ton, do not. Is there any logical reason that the 4 songs we have right now would yield Guns N’ Roses but not 3 that have been talked about as often or more than the songs showing up? Not to mention Soul Monster has been talked about way less than these in comparison. If this is an algorithm, how the fuck is this even happening? 

This is the main reason I still believe something is planned for release on the next days/weeks. If I get some free time, I might try to search spotify for known upcoming releases to see up until when they show the artist as a result.

We know the Queen song that is supposed to come out this month gets results, but other songs on the UYI box due november get nothing, as well as the MJ album

I've been trying many different combinations of the song titles as well

This wouldn’t really tell us if there was a new link ready though right? Hard Skool wasn’t “active” perse until that Friday but redirected to the GNR page instead of giving a 404, that was the tell.

I'd guess the redirection is already a sign that google could pick up that would justify a link being included in the results. For it to redirect, it means something is up, instead of nothing (which returns 404).

What I don't know is how that result would be indexed in the first place.

Here's a quick read I found on it:
https://support.google.com/programmable-search/answer/4513925?hl=en
 

So the link owner can submit an indexing request. If this is up to GNR/TB, I wouldn't count on it being done timely, but maybe it is a service provided by Linkfire.

Alternatively, "When Google visits your site, it detects new and updated pages and updates the Google index". This is probably done at regular intervals, though I'm not sure if daily, weekly...

There are two guns domains on linkfire. We can check out the subdomains by trying the searches below. There is a sublink for the new UYI boxes, but I don't know when it went up, or when it was first indexed by google

just type these in your google search
site:gnr.lnk.to
site:gunsnroses.lnk.to

By take care of us

Full announcement is on the Store section of their website, which redirects to gnrmerch.com. I would guess that is not directly managed by them (or TB) as their social media. Also funny how there is still no news on their main page.

Hard Skool was coming up for weeks before anything happened, and the countries were not in sync and varied quite drastically in results back then too.

Was that so? I had a quick look at the old threads and thought it first came up about 10 days prior. I was getting excited for this next friday. Of course, the definitive sign would be a new linkfire url, which for Hard Skool, was active 2-3 days before release

I'm getting Slash in the artist tab when searching for Wichita Lineman (brazil)

STOP THE COUNT

Hey, folks!

Just as I decided to go to their concert in Goiania, Brazil, it seems like it is already sold out. The link to the nightrain pre-sale is still up though, so I wanted to check if I could get tickets that way. Does anyone have a spare pre-sale code? Cheers

Found googling "hard skool"

Really like how they're doubling down on the marketing of Absurd

I really don't know how people expect someone to sing overlapping verses live.

Also fun to see them having a blast in the rain unlike a certain other concert from 2011 when the rains hit!

Fun fact: Axl busted out the yellow jacket again that night! It is actually the only time he wore it after 2011 I know about. I remember laughing out loud when he put it on mid-song during Sweet Child.

I haven't heard Cobalt - where can you listen to it?

On the APM link you posted there's a play button for each track

Really sweet to hear these alternatives takes on the song! Don't know much about drumming to review them properly, but here's my take:

Better sounds kinda halfway between the original and DJ's version of the song;
Prostitute works almost like a sister ballad to This I Love.
TWAT i found really close to the original, and as such, a much more interisting alt drum take than any of the recent (+- dB). Also I really liked how the end could bridge into Atlas haha.
Same for the verse of Madagascar.
 

Shackler and Scraped were the ones that didn't quite work for me with so many signature changes.

I'm interested in hearing those as well! =)

It's a British cover band
