fake troll. dont give him another line on this forum. doesnt know if axls piano has been re recorded LOL but knows specifically it's going to replace witchita lineman in the set .. IF axls on it and IF he writes lyrics. IF i had tits i'd be a woman

Sounded more to me like utter nonsense

His country album was fantastic. The day he dies is the day rock music dies. sure axl n slash and probably keith richards might still be here, but Tyler epitomises it. He should be cryogenically frozen until they can bring him back to life.

I thought this was going to be originals - didn't realise it was covers. That's disappointing, but like the first single.

Wouldnt it be nice if someone in the band could just tell us. You know, like every other band. Didn't realise gangsta rap was full of dark orchestra

Any news on a new GnR album is Fake News. it's been 16 years. 8 years with sluff. We know for 99.99% certain they have not written any new songs together and if we are lucky they will release 2 more songs from the leftovers. They've also only released any of the 4 new songs whilst touring, and they have no shows scheduled at all, and we know slash is busy this year. So let's all just pray for more leaks. Fuck you GnR fuck you TB, gimme those leaks

The new Duff song Fallen, the music video is just using clips from the GnR Tour that only feature duff and susan. I guess at least someone is getting their moneys worth out of all of it

Scott weiland was, but he was also just as messed up and difficult as axl. he was the 90s/00s jim morrison. There were some great collabs on the 'Slash' album too, not that they would have made great full time bands, but he's been arounf enough. There aren't many he hasn't worked with

I think they've just reached their creative peak already. AL was great and World on fire was even better. The last 2 albums were both bland and meh with the odd good track. Like most bands. you get 2-3 classics and the rest become generic or rehashed or experimental. Only the beatles went godlike for multiple albums. led zep had a great 4/5 album streak too. But we're talking the elite here, SMKC are great but they aint elite all timers. Most people argue GnR were one great album and a second great album hidden in a double album at best.

He definitely sounded much better on the european leg, so would recommend those shows. Still sounded good in US, but you could hear his voice start to crack a bit and he was moving around more, in europe he was still pretty motionless so voice was better.

I wander if Axl speaks to paul tobias or ashba. They were people he seemed genuinely close to and friends with during their period and vouched for. Yet as soon as each left the band it seemed like the friendhsip did too. Axl is supposedly fiercely loyal but doesn't seem that way in reality

Agreed. I've never heard another bands leaks, even if i hear about a song leaking, i know in 6 months it'll be out properly anyway. With GnR it might be the only chance we ever have to hear these songs. Can't blame a starving man for stealing bread.

An expensive show just to see 12 songs though!

You say that, but realistically how much work do you think was actually done to them? There was probably not much changed except mix, and effects on the guitar or vocals. Even hardskool, all they did was cut the intro. the structure of the song is exactly the same. perhaps is identical. just sounds crisper (it got mastered) and slash played a new solo over it. The demos we heard were fully fledged demos, not just playing in the studio and saying 'hey ax how about this?' these were 'ok these songs are there. lets do a first proper demo' The only ones that clearly weren't were nothing and eye on you, which were just ideas that got looped. Atlas shrugged will barely have changed if ever released.

Have to ask why? Gilby was in the band just over 18 months as a live touring fill in for izzy who they were still trying to get back. Didn't play on any original GnR material and hasn't done anything great as a solo star or celebrity to justify any extra interest. Fortus is an elite level guitar player, been in the band 22 years, played on chinese democracy and some of the newer stuff, and been touring with slash now for 8 years. Ok he's not irreplaceable i grant you, but he's very much the glue of this new band. Plus i really liked his playing in the dead daises, so he's got the ability to be part of good new material if Axl ever let him, gilby was sacked coz he didnt have the ability to write gnr calibre guitar rifs.

If the world is cool as an album track. The lyrics are pretty bad and very simple, but the vocal delivery and music is fantastic. Scraped Is a good rocker. People have to find songs to hate coz so few are released. If GnR had 10 albums peolpe wouldnt mind these songs on the albums, but because GnRs back catalogue is so sparse and released so rarely, every album needs to be a greatest hits.

Tbh i doubt promoters give a shit. tickets will sell regardless. maybe not to the same extent without a new big hit, but GnR aren't going to release and promote a big hit so wouldn't matter. US now will be arenas, i think in major european cities they'll still play stadiums. Arenas everywhere else. Then again maybe half empty stadium is financially better than 2 arenas. Didnt motley and Def leppard play wembley stadium to like 28k in a 90k capacity? Costs of hiring stadium for one night was less than arena for 2? Pics were crazy https://twitter.com/JonathanDean_/status/1676572412148604931?lang=en

He also did the budwieser ad, played on cruise ships for rich arabs and russian oligarchs, and then did actually reunite with slash - but only for the highest ever offer paid out by coachella at the time. so let's not pretend Axl isn't driven by money. He may like to give off that vibe to keep some cred, but he definitely is.

Better was definitely the 'Hit' from the album and a great song. I just loved the epics where Axl really went outside the Box, especially vocally. Better is number 6!

Perhaps is the closest to UYI song. It's catchy, good but not great and classic sounding. The weakest part of the song is the second verse is the same as 1st verse. it sounds like half a song just doubled to full length, which seems lazy

Riad is the weakest song on CD and a 'Rocker' so Harsdschool could have easily been in it's place on the album, and maybe been track number 2 to really give the album the hard rock punch before going into the epic stuff. Monsters would easily be a top 5 track on CD. I'm upset Atlas never made it, that was an obvious radio song from the album.

I like every song on CD except Riad which just sounds like a jumbled mess. Absurd and general are ok and perhaps and hardskool are best, if hardskool is mixed harshly to the ear. 1. There Was A Time 2. This I Love 3. Monsters 4. Madagascar 5. Prostitute The rest all pretty equal but these are the 5 standouts we have heard. They're all so different to everything original GnR was, didn't compete with appetite at all, and thats when NuGnR were at their best. Over the top grandiosity and Axl Vocals out of this world

Very. Unless they only played all the songs written in 1999.

Maybe the old Axl. Today's Axl does whatever is needed for the biggest paycheque.

Decent song. Feel like it doesn't really go anywhere so a solid 6/7 out of 10 song. cool, but i guess being acid rock, no one cares where the song goes
