I just hope I don't need to pay big bucks for it. £10 yes take my money. £20 plus £40 fan club membership... hmmm. False alarm...the bar code showed that it was for some moisturizer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at that cover again the R is the wrong (right) way round anyway, so yeah looks fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the R is wrong versus how it should be for the Guns song, I.e. it should be backwards but isn't. (So the R is the "right" way around, which is the wrong way 😉). I think we both mean the same thing? Either way yep cool cover. I like the pink / purple shading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sackxl Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 I thought it sounded very punk rock....it sounded so punk I almost expected when they played it live Slash would take a shit on the stage and Axl would kick it into the crowd to announce the most dangerous band in the world was back!! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eric Cantona Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 Pretty funny review from the Norwegian paper VG: ''The mystery known as Axl Rose doesn't get less mysterious after releasing the new song ''Absurd'', where the GN'R-dictator apparently has tricked original members Slash and Duff McKagan into coming along to the studio for the first time since ''The Spaghetti Incident?'' (1993). That doesn't mean their presence is noticeable in any way: This is a worthless, pretend-cool surplus product from the shitty album ''Chinese Democracy'', and that you can hear, especially from the demonstrative absence from anything reminding you of a melody. Shame on you, Axl.'' 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wrote the big GNR comeback single (and is still in the band, unlike Pitman) Axl revised the lyrics to give a shout out to both of them. "Dizzy, little dreamer, with your head down in the stars" and "Fucking little schemer, got yourself inside the art" (Damn you, Pitman!) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KURT19 Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 I played it for my wife this afternoon and here is her review: “OK, that’s a horrible song and I can only understand three words: ‘motherfuckers’, ‘absurd’ and ‘you are’. Is he singing thru a megaphone?” I told her that she’s wrong. That’s four words. 2 10 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the translated articles/reviews I've read since the 90s are like that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AxlRoseCDII Posted August 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2021 I think this is way cooler as a first single back than some dad-rock commercial song. How lame would that have been? I want something unique, not SMKC with Axl on vocals. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
