What songs has vocals after 1999

I have never said I am waiting for a full album of new Axl lyrics and vocals. This is the second time you make this erroneous claim about me.

And this is the third time you have asked me about "when I will give up". When will you stop putting words into my mouth?

Ok, what's your stance then?

He has recorded all of these songs, but you're not expecting to hear any of them as he may never release any of them?

Ok.

I know Pele seems to catch a lot of heat on here, and I don't know the guy from Adam, so...far be it from me to defend him, but, maybe the people pinning 1999 on him are either taking the mickey, at this point, or else, they're being overly pedantic because they don't care for either his outlook, or his persistence.

I don't hang here regularly anymore, but, from where I'm sitting, I think Pele has made it pretty clear that when he says, "no vocals since 1999", he's being a little sarcastic and needling people about Axl's lack of output.

I think it's pretty obvious that we all acknowledge there was work done in 06/07.  The debate here, in my eyes, is whether or not there's been anything since.

And that’s the point - we can debate and guess….but @Pele is getting a hard time because he is pretty much staying opinion as fact when we really don’t know. To say something ‘doesn’t exist’ just because it’s not been heard or leaked isn’t a great argument.

IMO….I’d be pretty shocked that a guy/vocalist who has a state of the art studio actually in his house hasn’t laid down vocals in 15 years. That just seems extremely unlikely.

Wouldn't you have thought it was unlikely that he  released Silkworms as a single, instead of a new song?

Yeah - I’d never EVER have expected Silkworms to be released as a single. Anyone who says otherwise is talking nonsense…..but that in itself doesn’t lend itself to mean there are no other recent vocals.

Clearly Axl likes he track and the band appear to do also (based on live performances)….so if that’s what they wanted to lead with then fair doos.

Personally - I’d rather hear a take on Perhaps/Atlas. And if the 99 vocals are better than what he can physically do now….100% use them.

But this debate is about what has been done ‘recently’ and I posted to say I just can’t believe the guy would have a state of the art studio in his own house and not lay down any vocals. I can’t prove it either way of course but I’d suggest the odds are he has - we just haven’t heard them.

Look...shockingly, I'm not an insider, I have no additional information.  It can be likely or unlikely.  I honestly don't care.  It's merely my opinion. 

I will say it for the last time.  I hope he has hundreds of songs with completed vocals.  I don't give a rat's ass about when they were recorded, and, I hope every single on of them sees the light of day someday.

If they leak, I will listen, and if they are released, I will buy them.  Beyond that, I'm not claiming certainty on anything.

As for the "state of the art studio", we're talking about a guy who wasted more than most of us will ever see in our lives on building chicken coops and paying an army of engineers/band members/producers/studio owners millions to let his band hang out, fart around, and watch porn for weeks at a time at studios costing thousands per day.

Would it shock me if he has a studio collecting dust?  No, it wouldn't

Yeah good point.

I've tried to say enough times I don't know.  

I firmly, 100% believe I'm right (with the overall theme).

Problem is, I can never be proved right.  Soul Monster is my biggest critic, yet he now claims he's not necessarily expecting to hear any songs from Axl.

How many decades need to go by before you realize these songs don't exist?

How many 'new' releases of edited demos that we've already heard will need to drop before they realize there is no 'vault'.

You can envision Slash leaving in a few years, and all these people saying an album was ready to go, and now he needs to re-record it with another guitarist.  Then you'll get Fortus saying he's doing finishing touches on vocals in 2026.....

He likes the track because it's one of the few that he actually finished.

I can't prove either way either - I firmly believe if he had written/recorded anything worthy of release, he wouldn't have given us Silkworms, or even a 20 year old HardSkool.

To be fair mate - I wasn’t suggesting you were an insider or anything…merely pointing out that the lack of hearing anything doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. TBH - none of us really know. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ultimately….time will tell! And (IMO) Perhaps is more than worthy of release and infinitely more ‘radio friendly’ so why wasn’t that released? GNR are beyond trying to understand! 🤷🏼‍♂️

For someone who doesn't care or know, you seem quite eager to draw the line on 2007 with the vox. Pick a lane.

how the fuck did Rose spend 15 millions  recording so little then?

Haven't you read the various reports from people who worked on it?

Studios are expensive.  Engineers are expensive.  Musicians are expensive.

There were endless studio sessions, month after month, where he just didn't show up.

Also I'm still waiting Pele to put his money where his mouth is and show these supposed multiple quotes from 4tus saying Axl is finishing vocals. I'm certain Pele is making up crap again. There are no interviews of him saying that post 2006. 

2014

"I know this week he's recording a lot of stuff, vocally."
