It sounds pretty close to the shitty cellphone clip that leaked, if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Do we have any idea what As It Began actually is? I don’t recall that being a title on the discs. Should be able to narrow it down based on track lengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says "Ver. 1" but there isn't a "Ver. 2" on the other CDs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was at least trying to be progressive and move the music forward instead of playing generic cock rock slash riffs. Every great band progressed their sound forward (other than The Rolling Stones), axls intentions were grand but it didn’t work out. Really? I think the Stones progressed quite dramatically. They began as a fairly purist blues covers outfit, veering into rock n' roll and soul, before encompassing English-folk, psychedelic, music hall and other ''English'' influences (c. 1965-67), country rock (1968-), world music, reggae and such like ('73ish), funk (stuff like ''Fingerprint File''), disco and punk ('78ish, Some Girls era), New Age '80s (Undercover of the Night). Jagger flirted with the Dust Brothers during Bridges to Babylon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 This actually sounds like a satire on what Rose was doing during the Chinese era haha. ''Needs more whale''. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AC/DC is a better example of a band that never made any progression musically. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The piano is nice enough but Pitman must have been on some serious drugs to layer over all of those whale sounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Maybe Axl himself added the "whales/dolphins" there or had Pitman add them. I wish it was a proper song with vocals. But even as it is I think it could be part of a nice movie soundtrack and for that purpose the "dolphins" add a spookiness that works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's supposed to be one or 2 more. But in some cases "lyrics" means a very small amount of vocals. Or so I've heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonKinight Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 This song proves furthermore that the 1999 lineup was capable of doing musics that would face UYI II ones. This is like Stranged after an acid trip, it's insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this piano idea has a lot of potential. Nothing as promising or classic sounding has leaked imo. I can already picture UYI guitar work on it spliced by Axl from 50 Slash takes. But maybe he already worked on this instrumental and at least came up with a vocal melody who knows. Listening to all the leaks I think Axl could have released a sprawling 2 disc album and what we ultimately got was 1 cd with probably less than half of what Axl had cause he talked about a trilogy at some point early in the 2000's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
