Well, my son surprised me with an “autographed” (Axl, Slash) copy of AFD. I have a sense that it is not legit. Mainly, bc the seller has a similar listing, the pictured autographs on the current listing are exactly like the copy I have in my hands. Lines cross at the exact same places on the cross, same pen wisps etc.  Like it was printed by a printer, or colour photocopier.

what do you all think?

Slash one looks legit. Have multiple autogrpahs from Slash and this is very similar. 

Thanks

I can let you know on Thursday when mine is expected to be delivered unless anyone else has an update 

I'd be keen to know when you find out. Hopefully mine arrives in the next few days.

Those with the “Perhaps” vinyl:

Anyone else gaining a deeper appreciation for “TG” while listening to it on vinyl as opposed to digitally, or is it just me? 

Why, whats the difference?

In about 2 weeks I will be 48.

I still feel like an 18 year-old who feels like a 50 year-old, though. 

Late 40s is the new late 30s. That's the narrative I'm sticking to 😂

Honestly i was listening to that album yesterday honestly.

Like what you did there, nice. I'm stuck on it at the moment. The pre_masters sound awesome.

Noticed you posted a few SP vids. Whatta u think of Zwan? 

Damn, I'm waiting on confirmation for both CD/vinyl at this stage. 

Love idea of complete CD boxset as it were. INCLUDING new version OMG with longer intro. 

Rather not say, but I identify.... as someone in their 30s

Even the more traditional sounding tunes like Hard Skool are missing that organic spark of life in it that makes even a mid-song like Shotgun Blues still a fun listen. 

I listened to Shotgun Blues the other day as I saw someone bagging it and thought I thought it was one of highlights of UYI2..... and, that interplay, that solo, it just flows.... Chemistry in the studio was flowing naturally..... Something the hybrid songs don't have imo. But still like perhaps, Monsters and TG to a lesser extent.

I don’t think those songs are in the same level as Estranged. But that’s just my opinion. And I do love TWAT and SOD/The Blues. 

And I agree that they are incompetent with mastering and releasing it, but I don’t see it as a leftover. 

Good point, maybe I was a bit harsh with leftovers, as Monsters is definitely single material imo.

Although there were several people warning that the leak was the final mix. I know the educated guess from people like me couldn't be taken as gospel, but still...

I think there is a lot of overreaction to this track. I knew for sure that it would be divisive, but it seems that the negativity is way out of proportion. I saw some popular Brazilian twitter account saying this was the worst thing ever, and to me this is obviously not true. And I get, regular non-fan people won't compare this to CD or things like Shotgun Blues and Reckless Life/Anything Goes (I like all of those songs, I just think the overall opinion on them are not so great), they will compare with their peak. Which is fair in a way, but it's also delusional because they will never write a new WTTJ or Estranged. 

I mean, if you don't like it, it's fine. But it's not the end of the world nor the band. 

They did many songs that easily rival Estranged....... Twat, TIL, Prostitute, locker leaks The Blues {josh}. 

Yes you need to judge the new stuff for what it is.... Potentially leftovers, copy * pasted stuff. It is what it is.... Judging by the artwork, promotion, clicks in the track, one could assume they are really incompetent or don't really care. Bottom line, it is what it is. Enjoy it for what it is. 

How Does the vinyl version sound? 

Just announced TG on insta. Presave 4 8th.

The covers are next level too. Wish M did heavy metal by Hager though in same vein as current cover WOF. 

That's pretty sad, dislike sterile audiences like that, it's un rocknroll 😂 

Perhaps is best release........ However the best THING since reunion is locker leaks and the Grail 2000 album.

watching footage from acdc is a travesty. one of the most pathetic and lamest crowds ever

How so? 

I loved that general hat picture and honestly thought that was going to be the artwork. Way better than flowers and logo, which is so lazy in my opinion. 

Am I the only one that would love P.R.L  as the opening track into OMG. 

Try it out, it rocks.

So, what’s the consensus. Is Monsters about child abuse or a toxic relationship? I think the former. Thoughts?

Answer = #slash
