  1. So it is just live footage clipped together or is there more involved? Do your eyes work or are you just being a troll?
  2. At least they clearly put some effort into this. Whether one likes it or not, it isn't just live footage clipped together.
  3. Because in my opinion it is not a good song. It is ok but at the bottom of their catalog IMO. I think all songs they have released recently with the exception of Absurd are better than Bad Apples. You can still like it even if I don't. My opinion should have zero bearing on your enjoyment of any song.
  4. How does a one off release of essentially a B-side tarnish their legacy? Does this song somehow erase all the prior songs and albums that are loved? Anyone can dislike it for whatever reason they choose, but to claim it does anything to their legacy or their historical greatness is just foolish hyperbole and rhetoric. Just don't listen and play what you do like. The release does nothing to hinder anyone from enjoying their previous work.
  5. Personally I think The General is better than You Ain't The First, Bad Apples, Garden of Eden, My World, So Fine, New Rose, Attitude, You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory, and almost all of Chinese Democracy except the title track and Madagascar which are the only 2 songs I like on that album.

  7. I never liked anything Buckethead did that much. I can appreciate the talent but I am not a fan of fast noodling or his style in general. But I get why some get awed by it. Just leaves me cold personally. Technically impressive but no emotion resonance to my ears/heart.
  8. I don't understand the issues with the mix. The vocals are clearly intentionally distorted like so many NIN and other industrial songs from the late 90's early 2000s. Never had any issues making them out either. What devices are people listening on that can't make them out?
  9. Yes. The first vocal is Mickey to my ears. Starting at 11 seconds. I can't listen to it.
  10. Is The General going to be released in Hi-Rez formats? Not sure if this was mentioned already. I genuinely do not understand the love Better gets. I don't know how anyone gets past those Mickey vocals.
  11. Unpopular opinion, Bumblefoots Nightrain solo is the best live one performed by any member of GN'R including Slash.
  12. I am loving the General and to a lesser extent Monsters more than anything on CD or any of the other 3 songs released since. Both are better than Absurd, Hard Skool, and Perhaps to me. I have listened to the 2 tracks more than any of the others. Now they just need to complete Quick Song and I will be happy. That is the only other song out of all the leaks I enjoyed at all. The rest can stay in the vault IMO.
  13. Steven for sure based on purely how I enjoy his drumming. If he never had any drug issues and subsequent health issues and was able to handle full worldwide years long tours I think the bank would have been better off IMO. My ranking of drummers I enjoy listening to (not including studio only or one off replacements). Talent wise Brain is top IMO. Steven Brain Matt Frank
