Axl definitely MUST sing the silly lyrics, that's the true spirit of AC/DC. I don't want them to write Use Your Illusion 3. Straight up hard rock, Axl vox/Angus riffs will be sensational, then he can do what he wants with GN'R. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mean something like Catcher In The Rye upon Angus's riffs. That would be... Just something compatible with the AC/DC formula, but not as silly as Angus's lyrics, something Bon Scott-ish at least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Axl wanted to contribute some Bon-style edgier lyrics that'd be even better, Bon was a great lyricist. I'd still be happy enough hearing him sing the silly stuff though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RONIN Posted January 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 2, 2018 This won't be a popular opinion here but imho, they should just release Chinese 2 and 3 w/ Slash and Duff re-configuring the songs (w/ Izzy if possible). Then just release a GnR boxset afterwards with all the buckethead era demos and mid-90s stuff (if any of those demos have vocals) to keep the nu guns and classic era fans happy. Not sure I want to see GnR go backwards in time with a watered down generic AFD-lite cock rock album - which is probably what we'll get, something one notch above Contraband. Axl seems to be into that kind of music now with his connection to AC/DC. A back to basics "appetite" style album to keep Slash, Duff, and the critics happy seems like the most obvious next step. Unless they're going to try to innovate and do something different - there's simply no need to go down this tired road. Just release the good stuff from the mid-90's - early 00's with the primo Axl vocals. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Everyone will know when they start piecing together a new album. The number of people involved in a GNR project is unreal. The odds of It not leaking are extreamly small. They will have to rent a space, get sound engineers, It will be a massive undertaking. The silence currently is more indicative of of these guys being on break. I would guess activity will begin around March or April. If something is happening then the rumblings start in the spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I don't think I'd want to see GN'R simply do an AFD thing again, it'd be pointless because they will never top AFD. So what I'd hope for is that Axl uses AC/DC as the cock-rock outlet and GN'R for the more expansive stuff. That'd be ideal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also makes sense in the economic landscape of the industry - the stuffs mostly done. Even the production and mix templates can be dialled up at the click of a button. Id still wanna hear the final mixes with the original performances of the CD stuff though. Id be confident that Diz and Mel could blend with Axl to record some new vocals for the 90's stuff - even if thats not what I or any other fan might call ideal. Also, in studio, he goes line by line anyways. I know he's got the goods still! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl, Slash and Duff are very well capable to write a great record on their own using the GNR formular. The GNR formular was more than just AFD. It's the music why I became a fan of this band. Why'd I want them to change it? Axl had his opportunity and he more or less failed. Let Guns N' Roses be Guns N' Roses! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just release the good stuff from the mid-90's - early 00's with the primo Axl vocals. Yeah, I agree. At this stage a UYI approach would be better than an AFD one (as far as the material goes, not the process). I'd like them to work on the scrapped material from the mid 90s, before Slash left. Some of it may have been used already (in Slash's and VR albums), but I'm sure there's still unused stuff. Then pick the best of the incomplete stuff from the CD era and work on it. Add some brand new songs, both Slash and Axl stuff, maybe also a Duff one, and there is an album. If Izzy is involved that would be even better, but even the three of them could do it. As for the completed or almost completed Buckethead/Finck CD era stuff, I think it should stay as it is and Axl find a way of releasing it (in a box set, under another name like "GnR-Chinese Democracy", whatever). Although I'm not a big fan, I'd be interested to hear that stuff. And more importantly, I don't think it would be fair for those people to see their work discarded and redone.

Adding Axl’s vocals to an album that has been released 100 times won’t lift it from generic and derivative to “the best hard rock album of the last 20+ years”.

trqster Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 AXL/DC is certainly coming back in '18 and i'm excited as hell about it!!! A "new" Gn'R album is surely gonna come too with some leftovers from CD on it, I'd put my money in late '19 or early '20. Before that a NITL DVD is gonna be out. All in all should be an exciting year if we get the privilegie of having another AXL/DC & Gn'R tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucketfoot Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) 9 minutes ago, tremolo said: I’ve never heard that combination making original music, so it’s all speculation. But considering The last we heard of Axl’s voice, and the fact that AC/DC have pretty much released the same album around 9 or 10 times... it’s formulaic, derivative, and predictable, which makes it boring, which takes it far from being the best hard rock album of the last 20+ years. You might be right, but nothing really points in that direction. Experience dictates the opposite, actually. Do you not think they both looked on fire during the AXL/DC shows? They both looked inspired to me. If they captured that on record it'd be incredible. Edited January 2, 2018 by bucketfoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert39 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 It's a shame that both GN'R and AC/DC miss a key member for the writing progress !! Izzy and Malcome !! al tho Izzy can come back to Guns, AC/DC wil never be the same !!! I hope Angus doesn't make the same mistake Axl did !! Maybe WAR is the collaboration With Angus and Axl !! With Shitbag as the rythm gitarist!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sabian11 Posted January 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 2, 2018 Enough with the fuckin Axl/DC shit! My God the stuff I read on this board sometimes! No wonder why I smoke so much weed. Truthfully the only answer is new GNR music as the man above stated "Let GNR be GNR" we finally have Axl and Slash back. Why in God's name would anything else be acceptable at this point. Theres even a thread on DJ returning as a rumor Fuck I gotta roll another or I'll go crazy reading all this nonsense LOL! 3 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin82 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I wouldn't say 6 month is over excessive tbh from all we know more dates could drop & Axl aint going too be working with DC till after this tour officially ends if he does anything its with his own band before anyone else.
