gunsnmotley Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 James Michael, who is a member of MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx's SIXX: A.M. musical project, has been "locked away in the studio for the last couple months producing the new MÖTLEY CRÜE record," the first full-length recording by the original lineup in more than a decade. According to James, "it is truly incredible! The songs are stellar and the band is at the top of their game, rocking harder than ever. I get chills every morning when I step into the studio and hear playback on what we did the night before. I am so proud of this record. You're going to FUCKING LOVE IT!!!!"Sixx wrote at his personal blog a couple of days ago, "I fucking love this new MÖTLEY CRÜE album. Tommy's [Lee, drums] kickin' ass, Vince [Neil, vocals] sounds insane and [Mick] Mars is shredding on guitars. It doesn't feel like one song is better or worse than any other. It feels so good to be excited about something you've worked on so hard... I'm so excited for you all to hear it."The new CRÜE album, "The Dirt", named after the band's memoir of a few years back, is tentatively due out on July 8, with a world tour slated to commence around the same time.

Estranged Reality Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) I thought Tommy quit the band to pursue his prosperous career as a nightclub DJ? I mean, those Daft Punk-styled Abercrombie MySpace club songs on his MySpace that he made were killer. I hope he brings "Find a Way" to the new album. DJ Mix Master Lee could be his new name.

I hear more songs from this album (Dr. Feelgood) on the radio (Mostly Classic), at bars, parties etc...than I do from Appetite.That's because Motley Crue is cheesy '80s bar boogie hair metal sleaze rock. It's predictable that you'd hear songs like that more often in bars, pubs, parties, whatever. I'd expect someone in a bar would rather play "Girls, Girls, Girls" rather than "My Michelle" or "Rocket Queen." GN'R only have a few "party" songs - Sweet Child, Paradise and maybe WTTJ if you're in a seedy bar. But there's no way Dr. Feelgood was anywhere near as popular, influential or respected (critically speaking) as Appetite for Destruction.

KBear Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hopefully they realize what they were best at doing and release something along the lines of Dr. Feelgood.

Estranged Reality Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Hopefully they realize what they were best at doing and release something along the lines of Dr. Feelgood. Oh, and not get fucking Simple Plan to co-write a song for them (how embarrasing!).But, if he dies tomorrow, as the minutes fade away, what if he can't remember? Has he said all he can say? These are thought-provoking questions, KBear. Please - don't dismiss them. I know you have a grudge against Motley Crue, but you have to admit, they're probably the best writers in the history of music. Ever. Except for the guy who wrote that radio jingle I heard today about bagels - that was really good. Hmm, hard choice between the two. I'll have to think about that now.

But there's no way Dr. Feelgood was anywhere near as popular, influential or respected (critically speaking) as Appetite for Destruction.Critically the only difference between Dr Feelgood and Appetite, is maybe half a star from alot of the reviews I have read. I always see it get 9 out of 10 or 4 1/2 stars out 5. So your arguement of Appetite being the better album critically acclaimed album, doesn't hold up in my book.As for them being a boogie-band or people hearing their songs in "seedy" places; Some bands do try and write music that can appeal to more than one freaking person...there is nothing wrong with that. A large majority of people do prefer their music as "straight-ahead" modern rock, with pop hooks; And I just don't hear their songs at bars, I hear them everywhere. Movies, parties, weddings etc..Anyways, all I am saying is the 'singles off of Dr. Feelgood, seem to be having more staying power than the 'singles from Appetite.

Shuffle Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'll check it out, their first two albums were good and Dr. Feelgood was decent too. My brother is a Motley Crue fan so he'll pick up the album and I'll give it a listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boy Sixxx Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) I like both Crue and Guns for different reasons so i dont compare them, i cant pick a favourite so to speak. im bloody interested to hear what this albums going to be like. to be honest I think Crue now are better than ever and its really about moving forward. Tommy's recording the drums on the album so he obviously didnt leave, and theres been a fair bit of very different creativity from the sum of the crue's parts. i'd like to hear some heavy riffs a la BLS and then the good ole sleazy ass Motley streak to spit on it, snot on it and fart it back in your ears.I bet tommy's already thinking of the drum solo for the tour* and yeah you only get Crue played at rock clubs and the big metal halls down here so club DJ only, never just on the radio. GNR are on Radio 2 quite alot over here. Edited March 19, 2008 by Big Boy Sixxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
