    The CD pressing plant probably had to explain to TB that all the songs go on one side of a CD, and that they can fit three songs on there no problem. :P

    Haha! That's obviously a joke.....but only just really!

    Really is bizarre. Doesn't seem to be any strategy here. Where on earth Monsters came from or when it's supposed to come out officially is anyone's guess.

    The couple of songs every now and again was fun for a while but as another poster said it isn't a great listening experience. They become worn out so easily when you're so starved for material.

     

    Got to be that vinyl thing. The only thing that makes (slight) sense.

    I'm not saying that whoever had them was the one who directly leaked them. It probably sounds far-fetched (and of course it's speculation), but there may be fans, not "insiders", but just people who casually talk to various people associated/working with the band currently or previously. So it could be through this kind of contact.

    It could easily be someone who works at the printing plant too. If test pressings were made the original files will have gone through quite a lot of hands, and it could even be someone from the pressing plant that just took a test pressing for themselves. So many ways this could have leaked at this stage.

    Nope...But they were registered together!  LOL

    Best reunion song so far was never gonna be a "hidden surprise."

    What would the benefit have been in that, when they can milk out this Frankenstein necromancy for another few years?

    By the way, this means that they had vinyl quality control issues beyond putting too much music on one side...All of those "arguments" for naught!  Extra LOL

    Is that totally official though? I mean, I'm not surprised in the slightest if it is the case. It did certainly look like the intention was for Monsters to be on there originally, hence the registration thing. 

    In my view it's as I said before - they tried to stuff too much on to a 7" vinyl, it was abysmal quality as a result, and now it's just The General.

    Who's have thought it hey?! If only there was some information out there about how much music you can stuff on a vinyl without it sounding garbage....like, say, on the website of the company printing your vinyl? In my opinion this is possibly the most amateur hour yet, if that is what happened. 

    Glad we got Monsters though anyway. I can't see it getting a release any time soon, unless it's bunged on the Japanese CD version.

    The whole show including that track was played on sky arts here in the UK...downloaded it from TV to usb 

    Oh really? I watched that a while back on Sky Arts and totally didn't notice it had an extra song on it! 

    Weird as usually they edit stuff from the DVDs to show on Sky Arts rather than the other way around. Were there any other notable differences?

    True too. But I’m saying, that book is intro’d as evidence where she says she was ok with it, and then slept with him again and stayed around to cuddle? Introduces doubt. 

    Oh the whole thing makes it impossible to know the truth. 

    We probably never will either. Money will likely change hands and whether that's "pay her to go away as it's easiest" money or "pay her because I'm guilty" money becomes just a matter of personal choice,  opinion and speculation.

    The story in the book reads just differently enough that I gotta question all this. 

    Well, don't forget editors and publishers go through these things from a legal perspective and insist on changes. Accusing Axl Rose of rape in a book will undoubtedly be something they weren't willing (or able) to do.

    even in 2023 there's a thing called facts, you can deny them, doesn't mean they will disappear.

    the whole "mainstream media & politics are lying to you" is always 100% an alt-right rhetoric, because they want you to believe their shit, to undermine democracy. 

    it works with people who think they're the ultimate rebels but they only alt right sheeps who can't decide for themselves what is true or not in the "mainstream" media. 

    Whenever someone says 'mainstream media' to me as the prelude to some conspiracy theory nonsense I always ask "what is the mainstream media?" 

    I'm always confused as to what it is they mean by that exactly. Seems to boil down to anything within even a semblance of accountability, respectability, professionalism or budget that they don't like. And that crackpot on YouTube spotting nonsense from his basement is the only place to get your news. 

    Can also apply it to 'they', as in "and you believe what they say do you?" or "that's what they want you to think". 

    Who the fuck are 'they'?!
