MidnightToker Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Maybe the album is taking so long because Axl is trying to capture the live Mickey voice in studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should always strive for accuracy, in my opinion. My question is, why would you refer to the AFD5 lineup as "original" when you know it wasn't? This deliberate decision to circumvent facts mystifies me. Someone earlier mentioned they did it to troll people, fine. Someone else had this convoluted explanation where they considered Guns N' Roses to be more of a concept than a band, and as such they could say it started with the AFD5 lineup, fine. Why do you do it? In my opinion the people who constantly point out that the Appetite 5 technically isn't the original lineup are just know it all's who are trying to flex how knowledgeable they are. The other technical original members were in the band for a few months at the most. The original GNR that everyone knows, loves, and recognizes is Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, and Steven. Plain and simple. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bet Tobias will be all over a new record also, which I would be incredibly pleased to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLotus1111 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Why not get the best Axl Rose vocal impersonator to add vocals on those demos from the Village Studios sessions. That will solved the lack of music issue... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumandraisin Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I have no problem with Tobias being involved. Song writing wise he contributed a lot to CD and played some cool parts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euchre Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Just to put something in perspective......Jimi Hendrix has managed 3 albums of new studio material in the last 11 years, that all charted Top 10 in the US, ...and he died 50 years ago. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumandraisin Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Funnily enough, a few years ago when I still made music and my friend had a studio so we could record whenever we wanted I thought about making my own Cd2 going from the titles we knew and trying to make my own guns album. Atlas in my head before the leak actually sounded a little like the real thing weirdly just slower in my head. I had a great idea for Elvis Presley and the Monsters of Soul that would have had lots of thick rhythm guitars with a really fuzzy distorted lead line that was horrible catchy. Like Iron Maiden meets disco and Thyme was gonna be a sort of satanic ballad with big sweeping strings in the chorus. I was gonna do it in true guns style and have 4 guitarists on each track, sub bass as a Pitman tribute and maybe two drummers playing on each song for no reason. There would be annoyingly long intros to songs that should have been short and fast rockers. And the General would have been 8 minutes, naturally. Sadly my friend wasn't a Guns fan and had no interest doing this just for fun Edited May 8, 2021 by rumandraisin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2112 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I've heard a ton of interviews recently and the majority of bands with albums ready that are on major labels are being told not to release the album yet. So the labels are saying to wait until it can be promoted. So... no gnr album during 2020/2021, fine! But next year has to have a release. There's absolutely no reason why they wouldn't have an album ready by now. Korn wrote an entire new record from scratch and recorded it, while the entire band was in different states. Metallica have written at least 10 new songs over zoom and got together in person to flesh out ideas. Slash has had the conspirators come to LA to work on parts. There's clearly so many more examples of acts that are dying to make new music. When gnr come back if they don't also come back with a firm plan for an album release, then they are absolutely not interested in releasing music. There will be some who say "let them finish up their touring commitments, then they'll get in the studio, album will be next year" I call BS on that, there's no more waiting next year is 14yrs since the last guns record... that's a long time, longer than the time they were working on Chinese AND they already have the fucking songs recorded 🤣 gnr are just fucked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans and casuals WILL lose interest quickly. It's super boring already. Tickets won't sell cause they have nothing exciting to offer.

Hope they will do one more tour since i only saw them once and that is the that you want to see multiple times. The things that Mick does on stage. Fuck me man, no frontman can do better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of bands are releasing records. It's a copout for GNR to delay a record into 2022 if they're blaming coronavirus. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention Taylor Swift's two albums, an AC/DC album, Eminem, Lady Gaga etc etc. Basically, all the big artists you can think of. I asked this before and didn't get a response really......who are all these bands that AREN'T releasing music because of Covid? I'm yet to hear of one that had an album planned and haven't released it. Anyway.....that argument could vanish like a puff of smoke in about two months if the America tour happens.
