I work at a printing company and it doesn't work that way. If GNR supplied a good quality artwork file, it would not end up pixelated. What most likely happened was that they caught the fuck-up before yours was printed. That said, the printers are supposed to be the professionals, so it's their responsibility to say "hey, this is a really low resolution image, we need something better". And that's not something that should catch them off-guard. I'd say 90% of our clients give us absolute garbage files to begin with, and we have to go back and forth over it until a usable file is supplied. Most people who aren't graphic designers have no fucking clue what resolution even is.

Jesus Christ, that pitch correction fuck up at 1:19 is horrible. How did they let those kinds of fuck ups onto the final album?

The difference between Myles and Axl: Myles will stop singing if it's damaging his voice. He really didn't sound that bad there though. Kinda wobbly. I wonder what point in the show that was?

DDM is talk-singing on the album, too. I've sang the song while playing guitar at the same time. It's not impossible at all.

You mean like GNR releasing a greatest hits and reissue boxsets for AFD and UYI? She could release every album 100 times and it wouldn't matter if nobody was buying them.

Did this guy just put Shackler's and Prostitute over Street of Dreams and Maddy? Also, If The World fucking rules and IRS is the most AFD/UYI sounding track on CD.

"Ok last night I heard from a very reliable source that AC/DC will be touring with a new Bass Player this year." He didn't explicitly say it, but if they had to look for a new bass player, that would be the most logical explanation for the delay.

Really? I didn't know they released a studio recording.

Don't get my hopes up like that!

The only issue I'd take with the OP is claiming that Perhaps sounds like Brian May.

This rumor has been refuted by Dean Delray, who is close to the band. However, he did confirm that the holdup is related to Cliff.

That solo it cuts to after DDM ends... how does it sound like his fingers are out of breath?

Oh shit, I didn't even realize that conversation was with you!

I believe he did still comp the vocals line by line, though.

I completely forgot about tempo. He used to rush stuff like NR occasionally back in the day, but man is his timing way off these days. Yesterdays was one that I remember being really bad around 2019 or whenever. I'm a guitarist. The intro is cool, and so is the lick that it kicks into, but the verses are just kinda generic (very similar to Standing In the Sun, or an attempt at rehashing Locomotive's riff) and the chorus is just 4 chords being strummed. Slash never used to just strum four chords in a song and say "good enough". He always had a distinct riff for every section. Ultimately, I like it better just as part of his solo in Made in Stoke. I don't judge Slash based on his surroundings. There are songs I like from every band he's been in. But it's far too common a phenomenon that artists lose their inspiration with age to suggest this is just bias speaking. I generally see it like GNR > Snakepit > VR > SMKC. Now, there are other factors at play; 5 O'Clock was thrown together and ALG had more time spent on it. That shows in the result. Libertad was written during a time of strife in the band and supposedly Scott wanted something more light and poppy. "Slash" actually started being written in 2001 before going on the backburner. So that explains why it's better than Libertad IMO. I made some pretty detailed posts breaking down why LTD and 4 were rehashing previous ideas in a less creative way. Slash was the single biggest influence on me as a guitarist so I do not say any of this lightly.

I'm not sure what else you could consider it, then. If it's procrastination or insecurity about his current voice on record, that doesn't jive with Rock The Rock releasing. If it's perfectionism, you can always point out flaws. What explanation is left?

The thing i don't understand is how he's become more sloppy than when he was drunk all the time. He misses way more notes now than back in the '90s. The only explanation I can think of is that he's playing so fast that he's actually going beyond his ability. That and the cleaner tone just does not work with shredding. All you hear is pick noise. Anastasia is overrated IMO. There were some great tracks on that album, though. No More Heroes could have been a decent success as a single. We Will Roam was fantastic. Carolina was a classic AFD style riff. Not For Me and Far & Away were excellent ballads. WOF is where it started falling off the rails for me. Beneath the Savage Sun and Wicked Stone and 30 yrs to Life were cool, though the production was pretty clinical and modern. Battleground is another great ballad. The rest of the album was really lacking. LTD and 4 were basically unlistenable to me, except for Fill My World.

I was going to say, "wasn't that around the time Axl called him a cancer? Why would he even consider him?" Makes sense it was actually before that. I've sang it while playing guitar. The vocals follow the riff enough that's it's not too crazy. It's when vocals contrast with the guitar that it's hard.

And yet, he records fresh vocals for a fucking Looney Tunes song off the cuff. I think it's more his perfectionism when it comes to anything GNR.

Axl let Duff write songs on UYI, so I don't see why he wouldn't now. However, Civil War wasn't written by Duff, so I don't expect this song to sound anything like it, except in lyrical content.

... wait, what? Are you talking about 5 O'Clock Somewhere or "Slash"? I've never heard that about either one.

I've been saying it for a while, he's verging into shredder territory these days. It seemed to start on the Libertad tour, when he started doing tremolo picking (see 3:36) However, he still has a pretty good feel there and wasn't missing half the notes like he does these days. Then, he did Nothing To Say on the solo album. AL was more classic style stuff, but then WOF delved into metal. My favorite quote from Slash is "Instead of playing patterns, hear the melody you're going for." Sadly, he seems to have lost sight of that himself.

Not to be that guy... but Slash isn't playing the main riff right. He's half-assing it.
