Holy shit, Monsters. Nice work, gents!

There just wasn't a hit single. Musically, I liked the progression the band took towards more sonically diverse tunes (Get Out the Door an example) but it seemed anytime there was great music, Weiland's lyrics and hooks came up short (Just Sixteen, that solo in American Man!). She Builds Quick Machines was lifeless, I never cared for the ballads (The Last Fight) and neither did the public. Just a simple miss tbh but I did find myself listening to this album a lot when it came out, and was in the rotation for a couple of years. The music was great in parts, and I was in a bit of a "new music drought" during those years. It should have sold more, however... I'm shocked it didn't go gold at the very least!

This is a brilliant idea. I'm sure what you're proposing isn't an easy turnkey solution but I'd love to find out how you do it. One of the difficult things, I'd imagine, is replicating Axl's incredible vocal range. I'd see if you can train or combine models on a few of his octaves - speaking simply "It's So Easy" vs. "Estranged" vs. "SCOM" - and be able to layer this into one track. These AI cuts have been fantastic particularly where he could've used more time in the studio and the vocals lacked range/rasp and timing (TWAT first half, IRS, Catcher, Atlas Shrugged, State of Grace) vs. stronger vocal cuts (If the World, Better, Scraped, Eye on You etc) that sound like they were recorded before/after he had some vocal training. Songs I'd love to hear vocals on are the instrumentals that I usually go back to: Tonto Mustache Zodiac 13 Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
