He certainly should have input.. He helped get the band off the ground.. He is working on his 6th year back in the band.. His return enabled the successful stadium touring.. This band would be long forgotten if Slash didn't come back.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were clearly on the downward trajectory but Axl would and will always will have attention and at least a few thousand fans I each country that want to see him. Slash should 100% have his say and contributions with this release it would be a huge mistake not to include some music that is an original Slash idea... whether that's an idea from 1996 or more recent I don't care but it would be nuts if it's entirely music written by gnr 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wouldnt make any sense to me either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 The dude released one record in almost 30 years... The material is already wasted. Or here is a brilliant idea.. release a solo album.. Slash and Duff have done it since they have been back in the band.. Didn't some of the others as well? He can paste together tracks from 30 different years and 30 different musicians and it won't matter. Slash and Duff are back in the band.. It is just ridiculous to be releasing patching together tracks that were recorded over a decade ago written and performed by people that were never in the band with Slash and Duff.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no chance these will be on the new album. An Ozzy type solo album would actually be a great idea for releasing the material that won't fit in a GnR album. But Axl won't do it. I don't know why he resents the idea of a solo album so much. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 So I've been thinking about it..... What if we're just getting a live album with Absurb and HS as bonus studio tracks? This isn't mygnrCSI level stuff, but here's my case: The soundboard audio of Madagascar (as seen/heard in the Social Media thread) Fernando confirming today that we're getting physical "vinyls" releases (as seen in the litho thread) Years of rumors that a live album / blu-ray is the next release coming What say you mygnr?

Yes that is very plausible. A live album with a couple of bonus tracks that didn't require any additional vocals is more probable that a studio album. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds plausible, unfortunately. If they plan to put something out later this year, it would make more sense for them to release something like that since they won't be touring until mid-2022. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tracklist has been well circulated for several years and no one believes we're getting a studio album with a new version of Knockin that features vocals from 1999. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, of course, that's likely. For example, a solo after the first chorus might already have been added. But, I don't know, the intro sounds to me like something Slash and Duff would come up with. Maybe that's the day they recorded Absurd 9 hours ago, ZoSoRose said: Absurd is the first time Slash uses a Silver Jubilee on a studio GNR release Not true, KOHD is Silver Jubilee, maybe a few other tracks. 8 hours ago, Tom2112 said: Ah you had me up until there'll be another album down the line😄 I mean it is possible but we all know once this comes out they'll tour forever on it and by the end of that they'll be circling retirement. Yeah I think whatever comes out will be it. I'm not sure they have time now to do another full record after finishing this one, unless they record all of it together, release half the songs as one record sooner, and the other half as another record later. 7 hours ago, GoodOlJohnnyK said: Is there a definitive gear list for what was used on which album?

I guess it's plausible, however, the soundboard audio doesn't mean anything imo because they can record any show just for archival purposes. Maybe they just decided to stick that in the video instead of something from AFD. 19 minutes ago, Pele said: Most probable scenario is live album with bonus tracks HardSkool and Silkworms.

GNFNRUK Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Genuine question… How would you all feel IF this was the album: Guns N Roses - ‘Absurd’ (2021, Geffen) 1. Absurd 2. Hard Skool 3. It Tastes Good, Don’t It 4. Perhaps 5. Eye On You 6. Goin’ Down (Duff Vocals) 7. Atlas Shrugged 8. Oh My God 9. Rock The Rock 10. Crash Diet 11. State of Grace All tracks use the previously recorded Axl vocals from 1999/2000 (except ‘Tastes Good’ and ‘Crash Diet’ which use an Axl vocal from the vault recorded back in ‘91 and ‘Rock The Rock’ has the 2017 vocal). Slash and Duff have been in the studio and obviously they play on them. Drum tracks are a mix of old Brain tracks and newer tracks from Frank, except ‘Crash Diet’, that ones got Matt on. So yeah, if this was announced how would you feel? After everyone loving Silkworms I’m generally interested.
