The 90s and 2000s were completely different for the music industry man. Things really changed overnight 

Thats right. At the same time, when CD was released the internet was changing to what it is now, youtube was starting to get big and I believe had Axl done the right thing and used the internet at GNRs favor, CDs fate would be different. 

Just imagine if they released a mini doc on youtube about the creation of CD, with Axl and the band talking about the process and why it took so long to release it. Then a music video and all sorts of things. It was a missed opportunity. 

No demos or outtakes?

yeah, thats the gnr we love. 🥰

Some more dates apparently this year

 

 

I doubt its going to happen in Sao Paulo, Brazil is having a new wave of covid, in a week we went from 1000 cases to 300000. And numbers are going up as I type.

It is what it is and thats cool. I honestly think Perhaps would make a great single and could generate a positive buzz with an actual promotional video.

I rarely log into mygnr these days, but when I do, im sure the subject will be Pele in the last month or so. 😅

RHCP might not be as great as they used to be live these days but their gig is still a million times ahead of a current GNR one. So, if you had fun with GNR im sure you’ll love RHCP.

I just heard this cover and… I dont know, the girl obviously has a great voice but I dont think it suits Soundgarden.

The normal thing to do would be keep the momentum by releasing a third single and then an album, but I dont think thats gonna happen.

After the release of Absurd and Hardschool, im kind of unsure about whats going to happen, they can drop a new single anytime or go completely radio silent. These guys are unpredictable.

Single or album?

I can't think of any artist this year who has done a physical album release alongside the release day of the album online. Also, much easier to do for albums where you will sell through retail, where you will predict demand and buy accordingly - not easy for a niche 7" where it's likely a one and done print run just for those who put in orders.

Jerry Cantrell did, and Duff plays on his album lol

Axl almost passed out on the chorus 🤣
But hey, its fantastic they’re playing new songs. If they put like 5 or 6 new songs on the set Id probably buy a ticket to their show again. 

The instrumental band Slash put together is fantastic, Todd Kerns is a beast. I dont like Myles voice but I cant deny how great of a musician he is. I still dont quite like SMKC music because of him tho, cant stand his voice, but that just my personal opinion. 

New song or State of Grace. Slash would turn State of Grace into a piece of art.

In regards to the origins of Hard Skool, we now have an official statement that it was written solely by Axl,

When was this said? 👀

Im with Tom on this one, Ive listened to the songs and enjoyed both tho. 
The thing for me is: Same old same old. The band didnt have the capacity to create new songs in almost five years of reunion and are relying on 20+ years old demos to keep the momentum.

its cool that Slash and Duff are back, but if this is all we’re gonna get, Id rather have NITL to be a one off tour thing, and then have the NuGNR guys back. At least I wouldnt feel cheated.

Just listened to it. It was never my fav track from the locker leaks but this version sounds better to my ears. Ive never enjoyed buckethead playing so what Slash did was fantastic to me. Mix sounds weird and I didnt get all the reverb on vocals, it sounds amateur. 
 

Cover is cheesy as fuck, but it may also be a nod to the “locker” leaks. 
 

Now whats next? Rumored EP? Atlas? Perhaps? I dont think we can expect a full album.

Hopefully its just the vinyl plant delay, they want fans to have an option to buy something new and not something that has been out digitally for weeks.

Theres the excuse of the vinyl plants being the problem but hey, every other band is releasing vinyl right now lol

Duff himself played on the new Jerry Cantrell album that just got released.

Maybe Duff should ask Jerry about his mysterious and sacred vinyl plant.

Back in 2000 when we got the first titles from CD tracks Prostitute had a huge Mystique, I still have a brazillian magazine that had something like two pages talking about how Prostitute could be the next big thing. 
 

In the end, it had nothing special lol

Damn how can you be so negative about GNR releasing new music? This is a song from 1996 before Slash left, I don't see the problem. It's classic GNR sounding too.

I dont think it is classic gnr sounding in anyway. It sounds like a B Grade Back off Bitch, that is already a B grade GNR song lol

I rather have different old stuff like State of Grace being released than this. At least that song sounds legit enough.

Hardschool just sounds like a teenage band trying to hard rock. 

I didnt even know twitter was still a thing 

Holy shit, Aint it Fun sounds fantastic. I lost my shit when it started.

I firat gave up before Chinese was officialy released.

Then I gave up in 2011.

Then the reunion came went three years without a single new song in 2019. I gave up at that point.

I simply miss the days, where Axl was slim and handsome

Yessss, forum is getting interesting again! We need moar

Given the guy wrote 2 songs and had some piano ideas in amost 40 years in the business, I dont think he can write songs at all. Maybe he has ideas but need someone else to fill in the blanks for him.
