AGS Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) My gf was looking youtube for some vids and found these songs, there are 7 at least, all by DJ, i like em and i can imagine Axl singing on sone of them... i really like them, if DJ has been working with Axl on tunes like these i have some high hopes, some of these can be made hits mixing some Axl, Bumble n Fortus m the guys there...Enjoy!What do you think of them? There are more in that channel Edited October 18, 2011 by AGS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feconroses Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Only listened to the first song. I didn't really like it, its sounds liike a lame generic rock-pop song (remind me of Nickelback).Are the other songs worthy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturginho Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) the second one is pretty good in a pop-punk sort of wayEdit: so what are these anyway? are they demos or something? Edited October 19, 2011 by sturginho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethalis Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Blind reminds me of Nickelback, Break Everything of Linkin Park.The songs are okay, I like them. DJ is a pretty good songwriter.I really like the solo's, make them sound a bit more bluesy and they would be perfect.So I can imagine DJ taking new GnR tunes to a different level with some awesome solo's, make them rock harder, bring new ideas to the table. Stuff like that.We'll see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 They sound like generic pop punk kinda of stuff which is really not too impressive IMO. I've heard a couple instrumental tracks by DJ a while back and I thought the guitar playing was nice, he's far better than this territory but I guess it's alright if he wanted to make that stuff. Axl wouldn't like to delve into that territory i'm pretty sure however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl wouldn't like to delve into that territory i'm pretty sure however.While some of the solos are cool/nice, they lack something. Something a GNR guitarist should have. It's like we're listening to that good/OK guitarist but he can't seem to go further - he's a good guitarist and pretty much it. Generic soloing all over the place and generic songs as well.I really hope Axl doesn't remove Finck and/or Bucket to have this guy's generic soloing all over the next record. I know I haven't listened to any of his work with GNR, but judging by his own solo stuff (and stuff with Nikki) there's no way he could write something as original as Shackler's or beautiful as the SOD and TWAT solos.This guy never impressed me (and countless fans) and hopefully won't impress Axl as well. I don't want to hear the same solos we've been hearing over the past 40 years. Give me Scraped or Riad over "Mi Amor" any day of the week, month, year or decade.
