  1. It really makes zero fucking sense that The General was not given a digital release after the live debut. Such a wildly bizarre operation, this band.
  2. Agreed. The chorus is strong, but like many of Brain’s remixes, it repeats/goes through the same basic musical elements throughout and isn’t much of a journey. Monsters, on the other hand, ticks all the boxes and gets richer with every listen.
  3. As good as these are, the audio quality (likely a result of however these were ripped) is still quite poor. I expect the actual release to sound much more crisp.
  4. Getting to hear both The General & Soul Monster (Monsters) this week truly marks the end of an era for me as a GNR fan. Just nuts!
  5. Monsters/Soul Monster lived up to the hype, no doubt about it. Best of the 5 reunion tracks by far.
  6. Monsters gets better with every listen. Really Slash’s best work since Contraband, I think.
  7. I wonder if Monsters was supposed to accompany another single, maybe Atlas? But even that is odd, unless it’s another vinyl only track.
  8. So it’s safe to assume these were ripped from one of the subpar vinyl copies, yes?
  9. Slash’s work in Monsters is his best playing in years. I think it’ll stand out even more in the polished official version.
  10. Exactly. The decent thing to do is say “Sorry folks, but here it is digitally.” But they couldn’t do that. Not even consider it, banish the thought.
