Kill Devil Hill Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Soul Monster is such a cool title. Based on title alone, it's a song I'm most excited about. But The General is more likely to be heard first than SM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITW 2012 Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) In my opinion, Ron improves every one of Bucket's solos liveI completely disagree with you, and I know you said all of them, but just out of curiosity, which specific Bucket solos do you think he really improves?

Then I think the whole of CD (The song.) sounds better. I also like Ron's Nightrain solo a lot better. The rest he matches or exceeds, but those are my favorites.

Covering a solo is easy, coming up with a solo on your own that is worth covering is what separates the men from the boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to his improved covers, I like a lot of Ron's solo stuff better than Bucket's. I haven't heard Bucket match Guitars Still Suck anywhere. Next.

Blummas Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) I hope this sound more power metal and the CD name could be "USA democracy" or something similar Edited November 25, 2011 by Blummas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I wouldn't mind if the production is similar to CD. We have all this technology for music why not use it? The whole raw recording phase ended 10 years ago, even indie bands are putting more money into their work. It felt just right for CD. I love AFD and UYI as much as anyone, but you can't just recreate old albums, you need to evolve. I don't think they will go full on electronic but the industrial elements will still be there. I think they have everything down, they might just record a lot of tracks with Bumblefoot, DJ and Frank. I think they want to put the Buckethead, Brain and Finck days behind them.

Roush Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Better question.Would anyone buy it?I mean- aside from the 700 diehards on the Internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Considering how much easier it is just to download the sales wouldn't be any different. I think it would sell more overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roush Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Definitely. I think it would move in South America, and Europe. If the band is off the label, it may prove more lucrative to be independent.Release it online, ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) Radiohead doesn't even bother to release music for commercial reasons. I am pretty sure Bumblefoot releases his music either for free or dirt cheap. I think their best source of income comes from touring.Definitely think some of the concert goers might end up buying CDs. I think the tour has made a lot of people believers. Axl wanted so much for people to have respect for the new band members and I think they finally got it.

Roush Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Axl will always have markets in Europe, and Latin America. Especially with that sweet GN'R name pretending his efforts. In the US, people care exclusively about the hits- not new music. Be it good/ bad- that's how it is.I think even if the original band reunited, that record would push maybe 300,000 total. Music really is dead in America/ New Rome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music really is dead in America/ New Rome.The problem is that even if there is a reunion with the AFD lineup the band will be considered uncool by today's standards. I don't think they will be any different from Slash's solo album, VR and CD. The only people who bother to buy CD's are those with enough money left over in their budget to spend over $10.I originally had a longer post but my cat randomly decided to jump on my laptop causing it to go into impact mode and deleted my long ass post.

The Linguini Occurrence Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I think they will be more focused on a hit than the previous effort IF there with the record company still.They were focused on hits with their last effort, why else would they record the entire album with virtually no swearing? I think several songs could have been hits if they were promoted well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can write a good song without any swearing then that is an achievement. Besides I don't remember any hits off CD since all three singles were released unnoticed. Unless there weren't any to begin with and wikipedia lied. Edited November 25, 2011 by BirdCatcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
