Yeah, I checked the band's Instagram and they confirmed it's Niko. Apparently he also recorded and mixed the song as well. Not bad for a 17/18 year old kid. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Top-Hatted One 499 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) You guys serious? Noah Weiland is tremendous! He’s channeling his fathers spirit. He not only sounds like Scott but he naturally & effortlessly inherited his vibe! It’s so surreal! At 20 he already runs circles around STP’s current singer Jeff Gutt. Need to hear more from these kids. They might’ve unlocked the future of rock n’ roll! Niko, London’s childhood friend is the guitar player but I’d be damned if that’s not Slash playing on this track. Unless Niko’s sound has fully developed past those Joe Perry riffs. edit: So it is Niko. Very impressive. These guys don’t need VR. They got something special brewing. They need to keep at it🤟 Edited November 8, 2020 by Top-Hatted One 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Which gives me an idea: what if they did a VR reunion tour but with that kid singing? I would go see that. The rythym section sounds very VR, just has that vibe. Really like the guitar solo outro. I hope the band has alot of potential and an album/ep eventuates. I woukd really like slash to reform VR in some shape way or form. Even putting SMKC maybe on more of a hiatus.......

Now that the GnR reunion has happened I don't think VR will ever happen again, and he's implied in the past that he's kind of over it too. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SAU3R 754 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Slash and also Duff never talked too positively about the VR days, so I doubt that they would want it to reunite, but I think a one-off show maybe for the 20th Contraband anniversary with Scott's son on vocals would be cool 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The “thing” that they were hinting at us won’t see the light of day anytime soon (most likely he WILL win). It’s not easy being a GNR fan. Thank God I was wrong. Now Axl don’t have any excuses to not release something. I wonder if he will stop tweeting after the Biden inauguration since he won’t have anything to complain about.

mattromero 27 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 It surprises me that Axl haven't post anything about the election result yet I thought he would at least make a celebration post or something 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GoForJMark 701 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Y'all seen meegan's latest post? She just confirmed Slash is in the studio recording for SMKC. I think it's either he's given up on GN'R finishing any record or it's already been done for a while now. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could be either...or he could be working on both...he likes to work. I do wonder if there is substance to the rumour it’s done (GNR) and has been for a bit? As we know Slash has said up until recently he has been working on GNR stuff. It could also just be demos as I’m sure I read that Myles Kennedy was not exactly sold on SMKC stuff in the near future?

GN'R is now radio silent again after posting some tease last week that's probably about the election or new tour dates. At this point I think it'll be a miracle if this band released anything new.

I reckon slash and co have given up waiting to release anything with Axl. His just annoyingly inactive when it comes to releasing anything. The last thing we got was Rock the Rock 2 years ago and prior to that chinese democracy 12 years ago.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was it a really new song? Cuz If it is, Axl’s vocals were on fire. He sounds like Hollywood Rose Axl in that track. If he released something with that voice, oh my... I can’t even put in words.

illusiononthewall 19 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Guys, with all honesty you have... do you think it’s possible for Slash to leave GNR again if there is no new material? I think it is, unfortunately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But Im reminded of how at the very start of the NITL tour, in Mexico City, the band brought out a huge pinata of Trump and had audience members (and Del) smash it to pieces. Which to me, would carry the same risk as tweeting about the election results before a potential album drop? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
