Hudson Composer: M. Kennedy I hear Shadow Life/Too Far Gone in vocal melody here and there and I find this fast part during the solo and outro really refreshig, everyone could expect an interlude after that short breakdown, because we've heard that milion times. I'm dissapointed with the mix, sounds flat as 240p. I like this song more than You're a Lie and more than Driving Rain, WOF got me right off the bat.

DoMw94 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Is Michael Baskette not producing this time around? Looking at the auto-generated description for The River Is Rising it has Dave Cobb listed as "Sound Engineer, Producer" (Edit: Ha, as listed above) Edited October 21, 2021 by DoMw94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh it's the YouTube Music track, it won't go live here in the US until later tonight. That interview was cool, he managed to get through the whole thing without saying those famous three words haha. My prediction about touring was correct, US in spring 2022 and EU in 2023. Edited October 21, 2021 by MaskingApathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphelmo Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) I have that feeling that after 3:29 they won't stop at concerts and Slash will have his solo spot there.

That descending guitar line in the chorus that was talked about earlier in the thread is reminiscent of Beneath the Savage Sun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerInThisTown Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Doesn't touch You're A Lie WOF or even Driving Rain to be honest. I'm more into the deep tracks though anyway like Sugar Cane or Dirty Girl. Call Off The Dogs is the one I'm waiting to hear on this album, sounds like it's gonna be a quick badass song. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) nice chorus riff and the metalic groove in the verse is neat. Withered Delilah vibe right after the solo. Not bad. I prefer Driving Rain, WOF, and You're A Lie as singles. also... just because it's Slash I think HS is a much better track and I'm guessing that the full Conspirators 4 album will be much better than this. Anyway, it's good to have a new Slash song to listen to. Myles didn't impress me with this one and the song has a disjointed feel to it which I don't care for. Overall, pretty much what you'd expect from an average SMKC track, but I'm still excited about the album. As someone else already mentioned, Myles is kinda low in the mix. Slash's solo is energetic but not really inspired imo. The style of the song sounds like a cross between what you'll find on WOF and LTD which is pretty cool.

Ralphelmo Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) After listening to that interview I posted, I recall how Apocalyptic Love was made. Todd, Brent and Myles (guitar and vocals) recorded it together live, but Slash did his guitars in so called 'Slash Box', not with the guys in one room. World On Fire was even more complicated as Slash did both rhythm and lead parts, with many layers. Myles' vocals was IMO the best so far on that album and it might've been caused by him focusing on polishing every single phrase, because he had time to do so. With upcoming '4' we must be aware that they probably did few takes of each song and picked the best versions, not many bands do such things these days. You still can find making of of Apocalyptic Love on YT, same with World On Fire (Real to Reel series). Slash also says that the record was done in April and he looked for a new publisher after that. So hiring Dave Cobb (or splitting ways with Elvis) wasn't Gibson Records decision. Btw. I hope they won't share more than two songs before the album release, it was disturbing that I knew 5 out of 12 songs on Living The Dream before they released it... Btw2. It's growing on me after every listen, Myles' voice modulation in second part of the chorus is great.

MaskingApathy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 AL studio playlist WOF studio playlist And full documentary Hoping there's some kind of behind the scenes video for this record, we didn't get much for LTD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way, even for WOF I think they only released 3 before the album dropped (that I recall anyway). I guess we might hear a few tracks live from the first couple shows before the album drops but with LTD, between the singles and live videos, we knew all the main songs by the time it came out.

Ralphelmo Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Imagine this band is playing together for almost 12 years... When they started in 2010, Myles was 40 and Slash 45 years old Now they're 51 and 56, damn. 2012 2014 2017 2021 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post metallex78 Posted October 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Say what you will about their music and whether you like it or not is entirely personal choice, but that is a band. I’m glad Slash has this outlet to keep being creative. You really can see how happy he is on stage playing with these guys.

The other ones were okay though.

MaskingApathy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 It's on Spotify now. Not a fan of the mix, I preferred Elvis' work on the last 2 records. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoking guns Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 The song rocks. About to crank in my big stereo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskingApathy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 The song would rock more if the mix was more modern sounding, like if the drums were punchier like on the last 2 records. WOF has a great drum sound and it jumps out of the speakers. This song, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Riggs Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Overall a kickass tune. Really like the vibe of most of it. Great intro the first 18 seconds and then it’s going great until whatever Slash is doing around 2:16. Distracting swerve off the song’s proverbial “path” but it recovers nicely. Should’ve ended around 3:12 though. Last 30 seconds are pointless IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
