Georgy Zhukov Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I never thought of this before, but even if the next record comes out, there won't be much promotion for it. They will probably only play a couple songs live to make sure AFD still dominates the set lists.And I think as long Chris Pitman is around there will be one or two tracks that will have an industrial sound. I think they have a good thing going there but I can see if most fans aren't ready for it. I can't see them with a "safer" rock and roll record.

Tyler Drama Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I thought the song styles on Chinese Democracy were pretty fucking original. Find me another song that sounds like If The World. Better. IRS. Madagascar. All so damn original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockqueen Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hope something like Better, maybe. This song is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tange Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 i'll take anything at this point. Just want to hear/see more of Axl's art. if he has 20 some odd songs the way the band talks then release it as is. I bet they sound great. just like the "99" leaks sounded. Don't keep fucking with the songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnRDuff1 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I agree the originality on CD cannot stop. To me, not another band sounds like Guns do right now and it's awesome. Idk the chorus in Shackler's gets me sooooo pumped I scream with it. Every time. So I guess my answer is more of what they're doing. Maybe a couple curveballs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic Beast Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Dont expect from a band that isnt original anymore,to create original GNR sound anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Dont expect from a band that isnt original anymore,to create original GNR sound anymore.They can still be original. Even without Buckethead and Fink there's still Axl, Tommy, Chris and I think Paul is still working with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnR Chris Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Dude....are you serious? GNR is a rock band, man. This would NOT be cool for a GNR record. Maybe a solo thing, but you can't put music like that out under the GNR name. No way. I wouldn't buy it.Yeah, that would be brutal. Guns N' Roses is a fucking rock band.

GnR Chris Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 BTW, The White Stripes are better than any of those other bands you named.You think the White Stripes are better than Jane's Addiction and NIN? Sorry, but the White Stripes are garbage! Jack White should just be a guy fronting a cover band.I don't think that. I know that. Janes Addiction are horrible. NIN are good, but Jack White is a guitar god. Maybe you've only heard their radio songs. Jack White is the only musician since Axl to do anything worthwhile in rock music IMO.I don't want to hear GNR do an electronic music style. I think that's what most people disliked about the new band giving them the image they have to the public. Axl sounds best over Rock N Roll music. Just listen to him sing over Bach's rock band. It's more fitting than Chinese Democracy in some ways. I hope it's a very heavy rock album.So you think that Jack White is a better musician than Trent Reznor, and a better guitar player than Dave Navarro?Yes I do. I think most people would agree with that as well. Jack White is one of the most respected musicians in the world. When you get the respect of someone like Jimmy Page, you'd think he is doing something right. Dave Navarro has never written any memorable riffs/solos like Jack White has.Fuck Jimmy Page! To quote Tracii Guns, "Jimmy Page never heard a riff he didn't steal." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I thought only a handful of Jimmy's riffs were based on older songs?Isn't the majority of music based on older material? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appetite4illusions Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I just truly hope that whatever it sounds like, it is anthemic. That is the nucleus of what makes Guns N' Roses great; bombastic music coupled with melodies that are infectious and irresistibly chant-able.

Guest NewGNRnOldGNR Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Dont expect from a band that isnt original anymore,to create original GNR sound anymore.The key to originality is the prominence of Chris Pitman. & please look at Bumblefoot’s music.I think this claim derives solely from the involvement of Dj; who like Slash is a traditional, bluesy player (which at times can produce originality).

EccoTides Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Honestly? I hope they get a little more bold with the production. CD sounded great, but I was hoping for something that threw us for a sonic loop, like a NIN/Beck sounding production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheapJon Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 don't want: ballads and coversdo want: pretty much anything else but for specifics - venomous-vicious-stab-you-to-death-run-you-over-with-my-car-and-feed-you-to-the-wolves kinda songs, these songs could be in most genres as long as the attitude and hate is within them. some trippy songs that goes well with eating shrooms. some riffy slow songs with groove. guest vocals from phil anselmo. guest solos from dave gilmour. axl's version of tool kinda music. laid back acoustic songs with axl's humourus lyrics (think kid rock - half your age).i really could go on for quite a while. but as always. when it comes to new music from GN'R - in the end ANYTHING WOULD BE GREAT UNCLE AXE!

Damn_Smooth Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Dj & Bumblefoot are capable of producing an album of significant commercial success. I will like it and so will Spin and RS; but it won’t be a Chinese Democracy in terms of future appreciation.You're hilarious. "future appreciation"? Seriously? I love CD as much as anyone, but even I can see that it has done everything it's going to do.I would say that Ron and DJ should have no problems whatsoever outdoing CD. As far as "future appreciation" goes, CD is and always will be the redheaded stepchild of the GnR discography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find the lineup now to be more talented than the CD lineup though, and I think they should be able to put out something great. In my opinion, Ron improves every one of Bucket's solos live, and DJ doesn't butcher the old stuff as bad as Finck did. With Axl's influence, I see this band going a long way if they are allowed to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I would be sad if there wasn't a single ballad on CDII. I'm just gonna throw that out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ben9785 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 It comes down to personal preference but I like the way Finck, Bucket and Brain sounded together. I would love to hear the darker songs Axl hinted at, like "Soul Monster" and "The General" which Brain apparently cowrote. I thought Bucket and Finck complimented each other well and Brain is a monster on drums.I am resigned that DJ with this lineup is the way forward. I only hope that some of the tracks left over from CD will turn up (without overdubs, rerecorded solos) and then they move on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
