rumandraisin 183 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Meaningless. What difference is this to Fortus saying the same thing since 2009? I've said it year after year, we may get a song released one day on a soundtrack but certainly no album before 2023 at the earliest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slash is one of the main pillars, ergo his words are of importance. I was just reacting to some of the posts above. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It just really shows how either nothing is happening, or Axl is really insecure about his music Can't really get excited for new SMKC at this point. As much as I like SMKC, we all know what their new album will sound like, like all before them, and I think LTD was downhill from AL and WOF, so who knows if it would even measure up. I think it really is Slashs "side" thing now since the reunion where he doesn't put in his best ideas, just something that will be like "fuck it this'll do", just to tour. GNR album is way more interesting in what it would be and where Slash puts in the work, and then it will just never come out due to Axl taking ages chasing some "masterpiece" album he will never achieve or be happy with.

Sweersa 655 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) On 10/11/2020 at 8:22 AM, allwaystired said: Quite possible. Or that someone has said 'have you heard GNR are releasing their new album and it's going to be good'. Given the CD leaks, and the reaction the band to those happening, if (big if) there is any new material it would be incredibly unlikely that it's being played to anyone, let alone friends of friends of someone who might once have lived in the same area. If, in some bizarre world, it is being heard to that extent then it's probably very close to leaking I would say. The most likely scenario though is that like most people who tell us about 'inside information', 'Malibu Monica' is speaking out of her arse. I suspect Monica heard some of the selects from the "village locker" leaks and assumed those songs were from the new album, which they very well may be (probably not in the form from 2000 though, of course) Edited October 19, 2020 by Sweersa Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ShadowOfTheWave 810 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Was just watching videos from Osaka 2009 and realized how surreal it is Axl hasn't debuted a single new track in 11 years. What the fucking fuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gavgnr 370 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 So slash can release music with SKMC but not guns. Kinda provides where the problem lies, but I guess we already knew that 😏 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jamillos 2,037 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Thing is, we still don't know what this means in terms of GNR. Has Slash already finished his part for the album? Or is it just somewhere halfway, partially finished and the rest on halt, waiting for the output of others? It could be anything really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gavgnr 370 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 If the rumours are to be believed, the albums been done a while. Personally, I think that when slash says he’s been working in original guns stuff he’s talking about possible new songs to bump off others already on the list for release. Maybe he’s just been trying to persuade axl to put some newer stuff on the record when in reality the bulk of the record is made up of older ‘new gnr’ songs with slash and duff overdubs. Even if true, none of this helps us out with an idea of when any of this stuff might eventually see the light of day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DurhamGirl 490 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Maybe Axl is just tired of it all, it happens to many people reaching retirement age, they spend a lifetime giving their all and get to a stage where there is nothing left. Nobody to blame it is just the way it is. With the pandemic and its consequences he may decide to to retire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dean 2,420 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I listened to the Let There Be Talk podcast last night with Brian and Angus. The host before interviewing them mentioned he’d signed an NDA and listened to the new AC/DC album in full - 7 months ago. It’s very possible Guns did expect to drop an album in the 6 month time frame that Fermanager originally stated and has been put on hold until they can support it, but that in itself would present another hurdle with the uncertainty of concerts going ahead in the new year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wow - 7 months ago?? I suppose it does give a small bit of hope that it’s true the album is done and the comments from Slash about ‘working out how to release this thing’ are related to marketing strategy. 🤷🏼♂️ Edited October 20, 2020 by DTJ80 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They had planned on dropping it not long after the fella listened to it and were due to appear on his podcast back then, but with the pandemic, everything got pushed back. Slash's comments, along with everyone else, completely baffle me, however, facts are facts and we do know that they have been at least working on something and the comments that Susan made are the saving grace of it all. Chinese Democracy didn't get the release that the album deserved, I just hope that they get it right this time around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

'Axl' and 'a lifetime giving their all' should never be used in the same sentence. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
