Popular Post vloors Posted August 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2021 I listened to it quite a few times now. I kinda like it instrumentally. Guess its a grower. I do like slashs tone and contribution. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind the silkworms chorus "what can I do with a bitch like you" being cut cause in 2021, it's a little derogatory to women. Oh yes.

Popular Post Arnuld Posted August 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2021 Here’s the bottom line- Guns N Roses officially released a song. They actually officially released a song. And God willing this means more is coming (Hard Skool at least) Like Absurd or hate Absurd whatever. We are moving in the right direction for the first time in 13 years. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could well be to do with writing credits. Perhaps there’s a song or songs with credits that Axl doesn’t want to share? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live Like a Suicide Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Absurd sucks, but the silver lining is that if Slash and Duff are willing to play it, we may still get The General and Soul Monster, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't the greater challenge/reward be regaining relevance just to show you can? I feel that is the GNR way. I don't think you can regain relevance by releasing art with the main intention of being relevant. That's when you start chasing trends and/or copying yourself. I'm not fan of this "new" song, but is there really any song from the leaks that would make GNR relevant again? Hardschool is a fun track, but it's not going to put them #1 on Spotify's weekly most streamed tracks. They're nearly senior citizens. How many seniors acts do you know that's still relevant? Finally, do they need to be relevant for them to matter to you? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally, do they need to be relevant for them to matter to you? exactly. I love gnr but they will never be "relevant" any more. Music as a whole now has become wonderfully isoteric and of individuals taste. Music as a whole isn't going to shape the consciousness of the masses now that we've been exposed to so much choice. Unless a 60 year old Axl Rose finds an unalienable truth through mumble rapping, Gnr is not going to shape the youth any time soon. So you're better enjoying the shit you like for its own sake. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNROSAS Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Sosso said: Life goes on and you are still bitter. Slash, Duff and Axl made peace with each other and released material. That's everything what matters now. Bitter...No. Fucking disappointed and frustrated as hell. GNR have a history of great releasing singles & hits of quality timeless music.. Does "absurd" sound anything like the singles Wtj,scom,pc,patience,dc,nr,dh,cw,kohd,estranged,sidhy,better,sod? I feel furious that after 30 years they do not respect their legacy at all as musicians... "Absurd" songwriters are fuckin Pitman & Dizzy.....instead of Axl, Izzy, Slash,Robin,Buckethead... No label will sign a band of songwriters of Pitman & Dizzy!!! A fuckin disgrace...i feel ashamed Edited August 7, 2021 by GNROSAS 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAFC Nick Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Not sure if this has been mentioned in the 51 pages () but that is definitely Frank on drums, regardless of comms saying it’s Brain. That ‘thud’ of the bass drum is clearly Frank’s (listen to IRS from CD compared to any leak) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post James Bond Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 Okay. I'm done lying to myself. I love it. I've had it on repeat all day. Leftover as it may be, Slash's feel and tone mixed with Axl's vocals somehow take something that objectively is quite terrible and turn it into Guns N' Roses. They managed to make Silkworms of all things sound like a Guns N' Roses song (to an extent). 6 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
