SoulMonster Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 4 hours ago, GNFNRUK said: I get this is a running joke here and I’ve laughed along… BUT… I’m actually starting to fear this could be the case 😬 Just watch, next single: ’Atlas Shrugged’ - Fall 2022 Then the remainder of the village demos (with vox) touched up and released as stand alone singles with no full album ever materialising. Its not even that crazy these days because legacy bands don’t make real money from new albums these days anyway. Perry from Jane’s Addiction said recently they plan on releasing a few new singles next rather than a full album. I would be entirely happy to get the rest of the Village material with vox and Slash. And I don't care if the music is bundled together as an album of drip-released song by song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I might go for one of the CDs, call me a sucker but having the first physical release of a recording Axl, Slash, and Duff are on together since '94 will be pretty cool. And the CD is definitely decently priced 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h2sublime Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I don't think this necessarily means we aren't getting a full album soon. You never know with these guys. Just happy we have a couple "new" songs to listen to. We have to give the band credit, they are actually officially releasing songs, the band kicking ass live, I am enjoying every moment. Picked up the cd single but the tape and vinyl are tempting as well. 3 minutes ago, Gordon Comstock said: Which is exactly why GNR will release a full album months before these CD's and vinyl start to ship.

Jw224 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 It's great they've finally put some stuff out, but if they're gonna start drip feeding us songs this way instead of just releasing an album then you can count me out. I guess we'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanna be mad about no album, but to be frank, they've delivered more than I ever expected this year, so at least there's some improvement on that front. I just hope this isn't it for another 5yrs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other, Guns will literally take any opportunity to make a quick buck, so it isn't impossible for an album to be released soon after HS merchandise drops. Personally, i don't think we will get an album until next year at the earliest. Fernando's talk about 'slotting in releases' makes it sound like they're going for a drip-feed singles approach though (if he even is talking about new music there...)

jamillos Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 A cassette? Holy shit, that's awesome. I wish I still had something to play it on. Oh the nostalgy. (This is not sarcasm, I grew up with cassettes, I'm that generation.) Plus, somebody please ask Merchnando on Reddit what live versions are these. Appreciated! Guns are releasing something! Isn't that... absurd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerInThisTown Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) I'm born late 1993 and I remember as a kid I was one of the last ones to still use a Walkman back in like 2002 and using cassettes REALLY sucked ass, no idea why anyone would go back to that torture voluntarily, mindboggling.

Because you were born too late. You'd have had to be in that age where it was the only option apart from LPs and reel players etc. Cassettes were a lot of fun, but it's probably mostly nostalgia talking here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird that it's Hard Skool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42è BCP Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 OK the shipping will be in a looong time, even for the CD ! But come on guy's, it's 2 "New" sigles, we complained à lot about the lack if New music, here we are. 6$ for the CD seems to be fair ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this could be the very last non- posthumous release we get from GNR. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll grab the vinyl and cassette if they hit UK shores. I'm sure we'll definitely get a vinyl release at some point considering we got SOYL on vinyl here.
