ManetsBR Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Axl has said before that he loves filmscores and if that a solo album from him would have way more instrumental than the Guns N' Roses albums.I think he should give it a try. Eddie Vedder and Trent Reznor made a great job, specially Trent. Now I can't imagine a David Fincher film without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crash Diet Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) I think Axl got some talent to do thishalf of his songs are ( or the bands songs) are pretty good material for a soundtrack Edited June 10, 2013 by Crash Diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flayer Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Axl has the ability to make a fantastic soundtrack, but it would also be crucial for him to meet hard deadlines if he wanted to work in the film industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I think he could do "Circle of Life" type ballads for Disney.. and maybe he could do more electronica Drive type stuff too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtydane Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 He's not releasing music he has recorded since 1999 and you're trying to discuss Axl working on film soundtracks? Exactly. Hard to b successful when you don't do anything in the studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hudsonsaul Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Yes, and he'd probably be better suited to this nowadays as well. Can't imagine many folk would take him up though as he is more famous for not meeting deadlines and getting tied up in law suits.If I was producing a movie, it would be hard to use him as the risk would be too great. Or I'd be employing a backup artist to do their one in case Axl Axl'd the process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepsicoca Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I think Axl got some talent to do thishalf of his songs are ( or the bands songs) are pretty good material for a soundtracki don't think axl has enough musical skills to do film soundtracks because none of the orchestral work on chinese democracy was done exclusively by axl. it was done by his collaborators.check out the credits on cd. the orchestral arrangements and everything related to the orchestra was done by marco beltrami or paul buckmaster...axl was a great singer, but i don't consider him as a good musician.

Mao5 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 ^^^^ indeed. To make a film score, Axl would need a 20-people team that would make the job for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetRose Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Only thing is,is he would want a gazillion sound effects layered one over top of the other over top of the other etc. And to me that's what ruins it for me.

prettytiedup88 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 CD has always had abit of a film soundtrack vibe to me. I think he'd do a badass soundtrack and would be a great way to let out the experimental side of his.I always thought he should have stuck to rock n roll for Chinese and chosen a movie soundtrack to be the vehicle for his industrial influenced stuff.

alfierose Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Creatively speaking he would be good at this but unfortunately you have to work quickly in that industry. Axl produces some great stuff but many of his songs are worked on for years if not decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
