Terrible. Embarrassing. And worst of all, totally reminded me of The General video. GNR ain’t much better rn tbh… :/

Axl has his own Website now
Underhardy replied to kingcanyon's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
“Feel the Axl Rose vibe.” A silly quote on the front page about living and running… this feels like something Axl had absolutely nothing to do with. He may have green lit the idea… that’s it. -
Axl Sued For Sexual Assault
Underhardy replied to downzy's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Obviously she has no clue about the song ‘Monsters.’ What an asinine thing to ponder. -
The General Music Video Discussion Thread
Underhardy replied to downzy's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Reddit mods 100% have TB ties. Just like Jarmo in the old days. They protect the band/Axl by censoring half the sub -
Yes, I think the band leaked the tracks. Didn’t GN’R officially register ‘The General and Monsters,’ a week before the leak? Why would Monsters just be tacked on to the documentation… seems to me the band was planning the leak immediately following the delayed release. Who really would’ve been able to get soundboard mixes of these 2 songs and leak them

Usually when GNR post something on their socials, whether it be sub-par live Axl vocals, or a rare new song, the comments section is relatively positive from the casual fan base. Most of the comments on Instagram are people saying that the song sucks. Not good. I actually like the general, but I can totally see how fans don’t.

Axl Sued For Sexual Assault
Underhardy replied to downzy's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire, I believe. The amount of accusations combined with Axl having deeply disturbing abuse experience in his youth, leads me to think some of these accusations could be true. Don’t really care that much either way but just my 2 cents. -
11/05/23 - Toluca, MX - Hell and Heaven Fest
Underhardy replied to alfierose's topic in 2023 Tour Dates
There’s not one chance someone side-stage was telling Axl not to go into The General’s meaning. To me, it seemed Axl was kind of taking the piss out of it. He said it’s a ‘new’ song, then probably thought, well, a 20-year-old new song, and he just said Nevermind instead of getting into that. -
That was a great conversation/interview. Regardless of his reputation on these forums, Matt’s a solid dude in my book.

11/02/23 - Los Angeles, CA - The Hollywood Bowl NIGHT 2
Underhardy replied to alfierose's topic in 2023 Tour Dates
It’s dumbfounding that anyone would ever think that… one song is clearly about child abuse and the other clearly about a romantic relationship gone bad (Seymour). Pleasantly surprised that the performance of The General wasn’t a train wreck, from Axl specifically. The chorus is all Mickey so it’s not the biggest challenge in the world for Axl, he even forced out more rasp on it live compared to the studio. Pretty much nailed the outro wails as well. Good shit, Guns. Fingers crossed for Monsters at some point -
The General and Monsters Lyrics
Underhardy replied to evilfacelessturtle's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
‘For the hell I let you put me through’ I believe on the bridge of Monster -
Haven’t read those in a minute. Damn. I definitely see a correlation in some of those lines to The General. The use of Daddy, the references to his family hiding the truth from him. When you frame Axls life in the 80s and 90s through this lens, it really tells you why he was so problematic and manic.. it gives ‘Appetite For Destruction’ a much darker meaning to him.

You know, Taylor swift gets a lack of flack for her amount of breakup songs. Axl gives her a run for her money with the Seymour songs haha. Not hating, I love how he writes his deepest emotions into songs. Monsters lyrics are basically an extension of There Was A Time, same vibe, about a crazy narcissistic woman who is emotionally and mentally tormenting Axl. ‘I would do anything for you, there was a time.’ And ‘I was there for you, it’s all that I could do.’ And of course a couple lines about the promiscuous sexual nature of the lady. I wish I could make out what Axls deep vocals are on the song. ‘The Monsters have _____ me,’ is what I hear, there’s a super heavy robotic effect on those deep vocals, unlike the more raw deep vocals on TWAT and Shacklers. Really hope we get State of Grace soon… it’s interesting that The General at the end has the same vocal scatting melodys as State of Grace in the climax of that song. Half of the parts, Axl seemed to not have the lyrics for yet. He’s 100% switching between singing words and just the Melodies at the end of The General and I can’t imagine that’s what Axl wanted the final outcome to be. Just like how he eventually found the right words to end Street of Dreams.

You know… I shit on these songs for Axls lyrics and effects on his vocals… particularly on The General, I still can’t make our half of that songs lyrics. But.. holy shit is the potential there in these songs to be all timers… some of the vocals mixing just bothers me, but aside from that… these are fucking insanely cool/amazing songs
-
The vocal minority saying this is better than ‘blues based cock rock,” is.. absurd.. a song about daddy and another Seymour song presumably about how she hurt and abused him emotionally… the lyrics to monster are fucking cringe. The rasp part lyrics are cringe. It’s clear why these stayed on the shelf for so long.. instrumentals are epic… Axl not so much.
-
Anyone remember that story of how TB members had to turn off Axls cable to prevent him from seeing a news story about him on tv, or something to that effect? How hard do you think Fernando is trying to make sure Axl didn’t find out before the show..
-
Does it not bother anybody else how fucked these vocals are, for Axls standards.. the effects that he hides his voice behind.. the bizarre layering.. he has one of the best voices in music history, showcased on many CD songs… The instrumentals are absolutely amazing.. it’s the vocals that just kill it for me.. even the rasp used in the bridge of Monsters just doesn’t sound right at points.. sounds like an Axl cover singer.. just shocked
