AxlRoseCDII

To me they are average as a sidewalk on a sunny day. Just another 80’s hair metal/cock rock band with a few decent songs.

I don't "hate" him. He really didn't matter to me one way or the other until Steven started touting him as the second coming of Axl Rose. Then I heard him sing GNR material and found out I couldn't disagree more with Steven. 

100% this. Anyone who claims that someone is as good as Axl in his prime and has that to show is full of crap. 

Never has ones username suited a description of a thread so much.

Yeesh, as a huge Dragonforce fan, I’m flustered. Both my bands are sure not what they used to be.

This Slither was pretty awesome! Axl’s clean voice still irritates me on the choruses, but for some reason it sounds better to me now as opposed to the early concerts. Fucking awesome.

Sounds pretty good on my phonec, but I can’t wait to get the physical version and blast it on my stereo system 

Oh jeez. Monthly payments for this? Who do Guns think we are? Do they think I’m going to take a mortgage out on my house to afford this? It’s shameless.

I know it’s been discussed here or there in various threads but I wanted a more general thread. The Chinese remixes we know exist and have been leaked recently or years ago are Shacklers Revenge, If The World, Prostitute (Blood in the Water), about 10373 versions of Better, and This I Love*. I also think that Oh My God and Silkworms would have been added to this album. To me, none of these remixes are interesting. They’re okay for a listen or two out of curiosity but if they were ever realeased it may have tarnished the Guns name in my opinion. 

What was the point of this album? To reach a new audience with hip hop tracks? To get the most bang for their buck with the 14 million dollars spent to record these songs in the first place? Did Axl think there was actually a market for this? Overall im glad if this was the record they allegedly he submitted in ‘10 that it was rejected. 

*no one ask for links pls let’s have a nice and happy thread and also you can be banned so make the right choice y’all

Lol. Also get Kid Icarus Uprising, it's very underrated.

Man, I must be the only person who tried to play that game and straight up didn’t like it. I really, really wanted to. I think the controls irked me more than anything with that whole plastic stand crap and just made me wish it came out on Wii or Wii U.

How can they even call it a Best Of without Riad n’ the Bedouins or Sympathy for the Devil? What a bunch of bogus.

Studio versions of these solos are as useful to me as boobs on a bowl.

This is such BS lol. Are we supposed to go hunting for a "possibly The General terrible quality cell phone recording"?

It's ridiculous that fans have to put up with this bullshit just to hear new GNR material. It's been like this since the day I discovered GNR back in like 1998. All I want is the opportunity to hand over £10 for a CD that has Axl Rose singing shit I've not heard before, why is it this complicated?

This band makes me so mad at times lol. I try so hard to remain positive, but in the last month alone we've had $1000 for a boxset of shit we've all heard, fkn Fly GNRAir whatever that is, Fernando calling us idiots, the same old stale setlist, and now this nonsense about 7 second cellphone recordings. Are we being trolled, or am I the troll for expecting the band to release music like a normal band?

Someone on staff please ban me and put me out of my misery, please lol

T h i s.

This really must be scraping the bottom of the barrel of these leaks at this point. Not much out there left besides the Shacklers and ITW remixes.

Just listened to it. The quality is almost too bad to really even make anything of it for me.

I imagine if there exists a version of The General out there in general*, then this might be the next song that gets leaked fully.

*no pun intended

Absolutely. I like Steven and all but I just do not trust his memory in general, especially with respect to this track.

I do think it it Steven but the drum track, in some way, was altered on the song. It does sound slightly different than the usual popcorn style drumming.

Still mind boggling to me that we have Axl Rose singing Slither every night.

well loosing weight goes in waves (for lack of a better word), right? Maybe it is the same with gaining? It is just how it goes?

Final update everyone:

So basically I’m a fucking nut and drove to get a more advanced and accurate scale. Good news is, I did gain that half pound! .6 to be exact, which means I have to eat 100 calories less this week since I only want to gain .4 this week.

Again: I’m a fucking nut. Arms have grown nearly half an inch since I started tho.

and to answer your question: for me, I track everything to an exact tee in terms of calories, lifting, and what have you. So for me at the least, it doesn’t really fluctuate since I’m such an OCD bitch and know exactly what I need to do to gain the weight

Update, just weighed myself again and I’m half a pound heavier than last week. Don’t know why it’s fluctuating. Guessing my scale doesn’t know and it’s rounding to either? I’m only half a pound heavier with socks on though. Grrr at bodybuilding sometimes. Now idk what to put down 

Ugh! Have been eating 3200 calories all week with the goal of gaining .5 pounds, and I gained nothing! Guess I need to be eating 3,300 now.

Everything. Eat until the world has no food left . 

For real tho, I usually go with something I either haven't had in a while or something I've been denying myself

Think I’m going to go for a good burger and fries or Panda Express. Except Panda was last week’s cheat meal, so maybe I shouldn’t subject myself to that.

Have been eating clean all week, any suggestions for my cheat meal tomorrow?

Bitch you need a whopper. And an ice cold Sprite. 

Lol me and my friend were laughing how lame I am. I don’t even put seasoning or sauce on my food, I put it in a pan and then just eat it.

I mean to be fair they aren't going to make much money off a Youtube video that is available for free

Which is a promotion for a $1,000 box

This kind of rubs me the wrong way tbh. This song is by the original lineup and it's got nothing to do with that tour footage.  Obviously these three guys were part of that lineup but if they're going to use current footage they should use current (live) audio. Not this track from 1986.

My thoughts exactly. Not trying to sound negative or like I’m complaining but I haven’t been a fan of this vibe in general recently from Guns- feels very cash grab esque.
