The song has 20 years, it's not new at all. The fact that they were going to play it live could be just a 'nod' to the hardcore fanbase, acknowledging us that they are aware of the leaks. That's all. What you could assume, though, is that a potential new album will most likely feature Hardschool, because the big 3 have already said (one way or another) that CD stuff will be used. But what you can't do, is assume that just because they were going to play Hardschool live, then a new album can be confirmed. We don't know that.

As is the idea that Covid has had any impact. Once these two things have been resolved, there will be a whole new raft of reasons you can guarantee. Yeah it’ll be something like...’oh in the post COVID environment no one wants to buy new music because there’s too much PTSD going on’ 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm starting to believe we're not going to hear any new material until Axl passes. When he does, we're going to get a large tribute album with Sebastian Bach on vocals. If everything is left to Team Brazil (in the event of Axl's sad passing), we won't hear shit. If Axl wasn't prepared to release it, they won't either. Unless they spend everything he leaves and need the cash, or Axl leaves owing the a record company something. Edited November 28, 2020 by invisible_rose Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bold of you to assume TB aren't hovering like vultures waiting to monetise the absolute shit out of the GNR vault when Axl pops his cloggs. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GnR Chris 914 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Smashing Pumpkins recently released a double album. Yet another band that somehow has figured out how to release a record in today's environment. Pumpkins now have two releases since their reunion. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DTJ80 1,070 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Do we know which musicians were on those Arkeen tracks? Always wondered that. It’s a pity there isn’t a good quality version out there (albeit the two that ARE are more than listenable). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
allwaystired 2,673 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Listening to that version of Crash Diet highlights to me that the song really isn't that good. I'm glad it wasn't officially used. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad it wasn't officially used. I agree. I think fans only clambered for it simply because it was one of the few non-albums tracks out there in the Illusions era. Look at all the songs on the Unwanted Illusions album, Bring It Back Home, Sentimental Movie, Just Another Sunday. They are all total crap and had they actually been on the albums, the band would have been mocked for them. The only b-side they released was Shadow of your Love on the Live and Let Die single. Other than that, it was all album tracks, so sure, Crash Diet seems cool because it was "new" Guns N' Roses,, but it really is shit. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, whilst this new SP album for the most part is dreadful, at least with the pumpkins we know that it won't be long until the next. Another great thing the pumpkins did is for their two massive and elite classic albums (siamese dream and mellon collie) they released the b sides and tracks that didn't make those albums the year after. picses iscariot and the aeroplane flies high. there are 6/7 songs on each of those albums that are easily as good as anything they did on their best works. Nirvana did something similar with incesticde. I think this is a great way for bands who never intend these songs to be official full release albums to get to fans, there must be 50 completed songs from 97-2007 that didnt make chinese. Plus all the songs allegedly written since, and all the songs written by the illusion era between 93-96. I know some ended up on slash's snakepit, but just release them. As proven, these albums do not tarnish the bands legacy in any way, and in fact enhance it with the true fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SP do have a bit of a habit of promising things that never actually happen though......but that doesn't matter as they always do SOMETHING. Whether the fans like it or not is up to personal taste and preference, and all part and parcel of most bands really. Some will like stuff, others won't, but there's always something to pay attention to. I'm one of those sorts that tries to buy everything released by bands I like. I can't say I've ever thought a bands weaker material has taken anything away from their better stuff. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think Radiohead did something similar with In Rainbows Disc 2 etc. It's definitely a good way to keep up engagement etc. As well as to let fans in on some element of the creative process; to try and see why some songs maybe didn't work in the context of that particular album. I've always thought it was madness that Staircase was never included on the King of Limbs but I guess it's slightly too smooth perhaps compared to the glitchy atmospheric IDM on the main album. 1 hour ago, allwaystired said: SP do have a bit of a habit of promising things that never actually happen though......but that doesn't matter as they always do SOMETHING.

I actually enjoyed their previous album, haven't got round to listening to their new one yet although the reviews and comments like the above don't give me much confidence but I'm sure I'll find something to like.

I guess I'm part of the minority who love it the synth pop/rock sound can be weird at first, but it really grows on you after a few listens. It's modern but it's not '' pushed'' modernity like in CD' s case. And Billy's melodies are top notch anyways. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
