Fozzie Bear Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Why are axl’s vocals so buried though? They just feel behind the music not upfront. Anyone else feel that way? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyVinyard Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Can we get it without the school bell? I never liked school bells in school and dislike them even more in my Guns N' Roses songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ak1nney Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I don't mind the bell. It's a little tongue in cheek which shows the band, and I mean the song has "Skool" in the title. They don't seem to be trying to be overly serious which is nice. It's fun and will be a funny thing live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNRfan2008 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I'm glad we finally got it officially released after that short clip leaked 15 years ago. I would think it will be received better than Absurd with the casual fans out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get the demo out of your ears. True, it's a good rocker. But the good parts from the original gave me high hopes that a reworked version would improve everything that was wrong with the original and to me that just isn't the case. It's not bad, I just don't think it lives up to it's potential. Hope this isn't the case for Atlas Shrugged. There is so much potential in that song, especially the first minute of the song. Hopefully they can improve the rest of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumfarce Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 20 some years ago, this was probably a somewhat cohesive, decent tune. Now, it is an unlistenable, jumbled mess. It has one of the worst "pulses" I've heard. Congrats to Frank (?) for besting Sorum and playing the worst drum take on any Guns song ever. Very sad state of affairs. Vocals are a few decades old (at least the majority), as most of us know. I've defended Axl up and down for many a year, but it's clear the guy cannot lead a band successfully. What a horrible nightmare this band turned out to be. I am astonishingly indifferent to them at this point. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be fair, we were never supposed to hear that demo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumfarce Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 And, how about just how much Axl fell off as a wordsmith? If you think anything on Chinese is of worth in that area, go refresh your memory and listen to something like "Breakdown". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
