I saw today that Izzy is confirmed for the Vegas shows... Who confirmed Izzy being there? ******* On a side note, it's so odd to see people using Miser and BBA as sources for GnR news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofnazareth Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 An Axl epic is when he gets up on stage and asks us if we know where the F..K we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
action Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 a new album without izzy and steven? i really can't be bothered. i expect a nu-metal, lifeless example of some sort of "frankenstein rock". the musical equivalent of a blow up doll. it will get you laid but it ain't no "human being" and it doesnt generate no warmth. slash is a brilliant, brilliant guitar player with lots of emotion, but he is an average riff writer. see the 1995 debacle with slash coming up with an album that was below GNR standards. Axl was right to dismiss it, even if it makes him a douchebag. count on izzy to come up with the songs. basically you have duff and slash writing together, it's velvet revolver all over again. and i really cant say i listen to those two albums a lot these days. i do listen to 118 ° and "ride on" though, theres some really catchy tunes on these two izzy solo albums.

Slash was on fire on the 'Ain't Life Grand' album, but that's because he had a great band who contributed to the songwriting process. Dave Kushner was also a huge part of Velvet's songwriting team. Overall I agree. Nothing can top the songwriting of Izzy with Slash, Duff, Axl and Steven adding their flavor to his songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKesseli Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 how can people judge an album that was never released or even recorded? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash, Duff and Izzy wrote an entire album and presented it to Scott who said it sounded too much like Guns N' Roses.. What you heard from VR was them not trying to sound like Guns N' Roses.. Slash still has the chops.. Just needs the right singer. 3 hours ago, Apollo said: Why? It seems like a fairly standard ballad.

Swedish Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 So after the recent Arlett Vereecke rumours last week stating that Slash was recording with GN'R again (god knows if that's true but I sure hope it is) what do you think is a reasonable time frame for new music from the band? Most bands would probably be able to release material recorded this spring in the late summer or this autumn but this is Guns N' Roses after all!

slash97 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I think it's possible that we could hear 1 or 2 new songs this year (tacked on another Greatest Hits album). Don't expect a whole new album until 2017 at the very earliest (maybe never). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Slash is just piling his leads on top of CD II it could be finished a lot sooner than an album made from scratch. That is if Axl has any intention to release anything at all.

3rd Wheel Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I think we'll have a gauge by whether or not they play new music during the upcoming shows. Axl made a point to play ChiDem songs during the 2001-2007 shows. He played some UYI songs in the 1980s and 1990. If there is new music, there's a good chance based on history that some will be tested in Vegas/Coachella/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect it, but I would think if there IS new music, it would get played at one or both of the Vegas shows. Those are the ONLY shows before Coachella, and really they'll debut new songs there for the first time on stage? No reason NOT to test them the week prior in Vegas to a much smaller and more appreciative audience. Again, I'm not expecting it, but I would say if there's new material it will be played in Vegas. If there's nothing in Vegas, I doubt there will be anything this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not arguing, just curious why you would describe that song as an Axl "epic." I think its 'epic' because of the cleverly layered, almost ostentatious instrumentation, and the melody.
