Pele Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 6 hours ago, Tom2112 said: In HardSkool It has two verse and 5 almost entirely identical choruses.... I think it was a bit lazy to not change a few words for at least 1 of the 5 choruses especially in the final 3 where they are back to back. I think the song would have benefitted from being a minute shorter outside of not changing some chorus lyrics, and it's only like 3mins long. And it's obvious to anyone with a brain why. These were unfinished demos 20 years ago. He was working on a batch of songs and likely parked these with the intention to complete at a later date. Now he's had to release 2 'new' songs, he's literally served up his 20 year old, unfinished demo and had others freshen it up for him without lifting a finger. Unbelievably, some of you seem to thing that suggest a new album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020_Intensions Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Lmao my local rock station just commented on this debacle ... "Wasn't it just a year ago Duff's wife was saying she heard all these new songs and how amazing they were? And now Slash is saying they haven't even started writing the album." 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievably, some of you seem to thing that suggest a new album. Or.... he liked them how they were and decided not to tamper with them. In one hand it's "Axl spends too much time redoing things, why doesn'the just release it" and the other it's "why didn't he redo his vocal again" how does Axl win in this scenario? I guess I'm brain dead, I believe the words coming out of Slash's mouth and I don't take your opinion on "what is real" over the people actually connected to the band. Hey... you might end up being correct, but until then if you could bite your tongue and not mention Rose not writing or recording for tonto, soul monster or whatever other song you keep going on about👍👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you've been away this long, if you're are going to release something it should be the best song you have out of the gate. If the best this band can attain is "filler rocker" level from the Illusions era I would prefer they just remain a touring outfit that doesn't release music as opposed to sullying the brand. When they released the first single off their long awaited follow-up to Appetite YCBM was exactly the type of kick ass sound/vibe people expected, and quickly confirmed that they were going to be different from the one album wonders that often occurred at the time. If Axl were interested/motivated there are any number of Slash songs that could have been the basis of a classic sounding GNR. It tells me that the only thing holding the process back as usual would be the red head. If he cared, they could easily put out a level of quality beyond the retreads we have gotten so far. He just can't be bothered apparently. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he's not recording his parts for a GnR album in his basement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
