Unfortunate.

What's the reason behind them producing it so badly? Any theories? 

Is it just that they couldn't give a fuck and have done it on the cheap? 

They just don't care/are lazy. A lot of artists/engineers seem to have forgotten that people have volume controls and don't need artificial loudness/brickwalled mixes injected into every bloody track.

So, the production sucks ass. Big shocker.

Let's hope the official version of The General has better production.

Spoiler: it won’t.

Of course that shitty artwork was real. But at least the song is actually releasing.

Looks awful, so it must be real.

CDJapan is all good. People should scoop these up while they can.

I was never close to leaving a show because I already knew who Axl was going into it.

None at all dude...aren't you seeing one dumb question, one after the other on here too though ? Nearing stupid levels of comments that usually pop up on reddit 

What I replied there was common sense, not a shot at someone, & as you had nothing to do with any of it...I struggle to see how it's any of your business dude? 

You telling me to tone it down won't work kid, you seem to be never wrong & everyone else always is ...just enjoy the music or shut the fuck up for god sake 

Way to prove my point.

It's a leaked song or two & a forum of opinions...just enjoy it & hang on 5 weeks til the general is released as a B side...then you'll find out 

Tbh who gives a fuck, it's something exciting we didn't have a week ago 

13 minutes ago, DSTK said:

Are you for real ? Confirmed by who ? Do you want someone from Guns to come out & Confirm rumours about a leak ?

You'll get an answer when it's released 

Do you have some sort of anger issue? People are just asking questions out of genuine curiosity. Take a hit of something and tone it down a touch, instead of jumping down throats all the time.

Anything that doesn't include Absurd and a bunch of covers. Package that and put it out.

These are at least far more interesting than shit like Absurd and HS. Whether they're good or not is another story.

No they didn't, they said shipped ...not delivered & this has been delayed 

Are some people plain thick or unable to read & understand basics 

Are you actually serious with this? 

Wow. The General is more exciting than I thought it would be.

I would shit myself laughing if this was true.

Well, they are actually. They're owed a 7" vinyl with Perhaps and The General on, that they've already paid for. 

I think they were poking fun at the diehard supporters.

Lol sending out a delay message at the eleventh hour. What a bunch of pricks.

Would be nice to get a gesture of goodwill and have the band just release the song anyway, but this is the most dangerous band in the world. They needed that vinyl exclusive just to prolong the mythical status of this song.

I already hate the song, just because of this thread.

Hey guys. Dont know if this topic is dead. Just wanted to point a few things rq.

 

1: Im the guy who put the discogs thing up. The reason why the profile looks so sketchy is because the OG accout (i had an old one that got banned, more on that soon) was made back in 2020-2021. I got banned from discogs for harrassing staff (which all i did was say that one of the staff had a big collection). I wanted to prank the staff about taking legal action. the original account was ilovecats123 and ilovecats123_Reborn, but it is now TooHardSkool.

2. The proof screenshot was the code of the atlas collection being reimplemented into the actual merch website. I can get screenshots soon

3. The barcode and catalog number are fake. I added those just to get the release on discogs. There are currently none of those yet so we will have to wait until november (if atlas comes out)

4. The cover isnt ai-made. It came from geffen's archive of covers. My big bro named Jason works for geffen, and the bands he also works for are GNR and the eagles.

5. I think the release date of atlas is supposed to be Nov. 12. It could be a few days before or after that but currently its pinned to either the 12th or 15th. Leaning to the 15th currently

Thats all i have to say. Dont wanna spoil too many things but if you need anything else ill be active whenever you need me 🙂

 

-TooHardSkool aka. ilovecats123_Reborn

GNR releasing a new album on a Sunday! The most dangerous band in the world is showing the world they don't care about predictable release dates! GNFNRsssssssssss. Oh wait. You say the 15th as well? A Wednesday?! GNR don't give a fuck.

Good work, Jason.

Will you follow through with this, or is this like when Chris Axl claimed he would eat a shoe?

I'm so comfortable in my knowledge of GNR's album release plans (or lack thereof) that I know I'll never have to do anything like this. But maybe Dexter will see the forum and ramp up album release plans just to spite me.

It sounds better than the other two, yes. But it sucks if you put em together in a playlist.

Plus, a song like Perhaps would function a lot better in the context of an album, imo.

This is one of the things that bothers me about these song releases. Good to have music out, but it would've been better to construct an EP (or an album... but let's be real) with consistent production throughout (consistent also meaning competent production), so that these songs could all be appreciated in a certain context. I know most know the origins of these songs, and so they come from different times, stages, etc. But they could've curated something a bit more purposeful, which would've allowed the songs to have a true second life in something more carefully thought out. Oh well.

You can tell it's BS because:

1) GNR won't put out an album, no matter how many people are trying to convince themselves that one is coming, and;

2) It wouldn't release on the 23rd anyway. It's a Thursday. At least pick the next day (the 24th) to make it somewhat believable.
