Well, somewhat you are right..yes. I believe that the entire reason that exactly now, after 14 full years of SMKC, he NOW has a new single with Brian Johnson out.. is exactly because of how poorly the last SMKC album did. That would be too much of a coincidence, that after 14 years, he is now suddenly launching a new project. That band has been good to him the entire time and he's cool with that ...aslong as the numbers reflect it.

As soon as it begins to go south he will reevaluate what he's doing. And that's where we are now. I won't fully rule out it could be a coincidence, but it just makes sense at this exact point in time.

Or... GNR was touring until Dec 22 and picked it back up in the summer of 23. Myles was on tour with Alter Bridge from Nov 22 through the Summer of 23. Slash had downtime between legs and Myles wasn't available.

Remember when slash did the Super Bowl with the black eyed peas and they made him play the SCOM riff and wear a glitter suit/hat? I’m still trying to bleach that night from my brain, 13 years later…

At least he played the guitar live and the solo wasn't mimed like this year's halftime show.

Found audio rips of the songs!

His timing is pretty off on some of them, especially track 9, lol. Things you can get away with as a rockstar.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Just speculating, but they probably recorded his riffs first and tried to fit the bass/drums under it in a grid leading to the off-timings from matching a drum machine to a human who may not have used a click track to record.

Slash confirmed that it predates Appetite in its rawest form:

Apparently it was on a pinball machine called Viper Night Drivin released in 1998:

That must be where the other version comes from. I'd assume in much better quality?

The Nightcrawler linked earlier in the thread sounds kinda like some parts in the soundtrack for that pinball machine as heard on the video below. There are definitely parts of Speed Parade in that soundtrack as well. It's hard to hear over the pinball noises to discern if that Nightcrawler demo is morphed into this, but the main riff and solo of Speed Parade are in there. 

P.S. That Nightcrawler demo is wild. The drum machine backing track gives it almost industrial vibes. Thank you for sharing, Rindmelon.

I JUST found out today that Izzy plays the guitar solo on Back Off Bitch! 💡😳 I ALWAYS thought SLASH was the one who played the guitar solo, but no, it is IZZY. 💡😳

I'm pretty sure Izzy only plays the lead part which is the intro. The solo in the middle is still Slash.

Izzy does play the solo on the recorded version of Double Talkin Jive.

There's also that snippet of a demo of what became Back and Forth Again that has a whistling melody, presumably by Axl. I believe that it was played in the documentary for the making of the Estranged video. As it was only a snippet, there could be a longer version.

 Man, I hope they someday play Back to the Moment. It's probably my favourite post-GnR Slash song of all time. I know it probably won't sound as good with Myles but still... I'd love to hear that live.

Great song. I think that Myles would work well on it, adding a bit of "tenderness" to some spots to make the vocals more dynamic. 

I'd hope for Back and Forth Again. It is in my top 4 (Watch This, Slither, Come On Come In *No particular order). It has one of my top Slash solos including GNR. Heck, I think that they could take that recording and have Axl re-singing Dover's vocals, with Duff re-doing the bass, and it would be a huge hit.

I'd guess 

Lyrics, Vocals, Drums, Harmonies, Bridge and they might indicate what needs to be recorded/worked on.

This is a song I self recorded with heavy influence from Axl, I played and recorded everything in the song (Except one thing  ). I'm primarily a guitar player. Hope you guys like it

Bad Link Fixed sorry!

Cheers!
