Hard agree. Not a Watt fan. Something about his sonics feel sicly to me. 

Plus I could very well live without an Axl / Stevie Wonder / Ed Sheeran / Lady Gaga or whoever else he comes up with collab 

Probably not.

Oklahoma, just for the sheer amount of history that song has.

Gotta say I'm kinda baffled that after probably a decade of abstinence from here and lots of lurking the last few months I managed to spend exactly this evening on here. Amazing.

We're a happy family, aren't we?

I’ve just realised during the first verse of Monsters, do we think Ozzy may have inspired Axl a little with his singing style? Love it 🔥

Thought the same, very Ozzy.

**Breaking News**

the mixed and mastered version just leaked

Same bat time, same bat channel?

After a few more listens, I am still a bit underwhelmed by The General, Monsters is a total monster tho.

Now the bigger question is…. Maybe this got delayed cause Axl wants to put Monsters on the vinyl as well??

It's a kick ass song, would make sense.

It’s crazy how shitty these mixes sound. I’m excited to keep listening but the quality is the shits. Hoping these are just  rough, unmastered and not final.

Yeah, something's wrong with these mixes, can't be the final official ones.

Im reeeeeaaaallly digging Monsters after a few listens. That's the perfect melody mix of Illusions era and early 2000s era.

I just hope this is not the final mix / sound quality.

yes and on the isolated vocals it is 100000% real, this is it folks, just not mixed or mastered

That's what I am hoping as I am not very impressed with the overall sound quality of these tunes.

The screaming part of Monsters 

It's impressive, yeah, but it sounds so thin somehow?

The General does have a sitar guitar. And the solos sounds like Slash indeed. I think those are legit. 

You really think it's Slash? I am getting CD line up demo vibes from this. I really don't know if I'd want these two songs to be the song(s) were waiting for.

2 minutes ago, Crazyman said:

These are definitely real, imo. Possible demo versions, though? At least I hope because they don't sound mixed or mastered

That's what I think as well.

These sound weird as hell, Axl sounds so artificial, like someone messed with the pitch.

Undecided about the general (no pun intended) quality of the songs as I am so distracted by the vocals. 

Okay, where is it?

Really, you have never experienced that an Amazon delivery takes longer than originally stipulated, really?

Apples and oranges.

There is no excuse for sending an email announcement to some customers and not others the day before/the day of the original release date. That some of their customers have had to chase up the store/s because they didn't receive an email indicates just how badly the band/distributor messed up in organising the release and communicating it properly. The band's dreadful history on matters like this does not excuse it here. They had enough time to communicate the delay properly. They didn't.

Thats it, yes.

What was the deal with the pictures of the cd single sleeve earlier this thread?

 

Was it the real deal? 

What do you think?

Just got my last email to Bravado answered and the confirmation that it's postponed until December 8th.

They simply updated release date in the german store. Can't upload screenshot 

Ah, I see. Alright, thank you!
