Where has this been all my life? I've been going down a rabbit hole of 90's dance tunes lately so this is right up my street Definitely has that turn of the millennium racing game vibe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also prefer the intros from the demo versions of ITW and IRS (but can tolerate the final versions of those two, at least). I still can't believe they put the title track out as the single and no one could be bothered to edit it for radio play? As if stations were going to play that ambient intro. Guns were lucky enough to be given a chance in the UK and BBC radio 1 actually premiered the track. This wasn't 91, I'm surprised they even got on the radio. Probably it's sole play on major radio.

Also the album debuted at number 1 here and went platinum. Edited August 16, 2023 by tboneman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I really don’t like is the Riad ambience and the Scraped voice thingy. If Scraped started out like it did back when it was played live in 2010, it would’ve been a much better song.

Somebody made a version of Scraped with the live intro years ago. It sounds great. I think it probably was @evader. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmus1 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 I had a dream that the album was announced as half studio/half live versions of CD songs and covers, and was called GnFnR. It felt so real and on brand for this band that I was almost surprised it didn't exist when I logged in this morning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt so real and on brand for this band that I was almost surprised it didn't exist when I logged in this morning. It reminds me, not of a dream, but of a thought I had some time ago, imagining that I was the manager of Guns N'Roses. I felt it made little sense to release singles one by one. On one hand, because the media impact is limited each time, and on the other hand, because it only momentarily satisfies the appetite of hardcore fans, as a single is quickly consumed. Instead, if I were their manager, I would have released 'Lies II', with one side consisting of the leftovers from 'Chinese Democracy' and the other side of live tracks. And just as 'Lies' parodied the tabloids of the time, 'Lies II' would mock the excesses of the internet with social media and fan forums.

bmus1 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 A "Lies II" format is the only thing in the realm of any possibility of a new LP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dummy Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) Apparently 4tus claimed that d-tune + circus maximus + beltrami mix = 7 "Here's some other news that I found along the way... There apparently was a fan who spoke with 4tus possibly on Twitter I believe, who was also in a chat on one of the *Perhaps* news YT videos... The fan was curious about both *The General* & *Seven* n' instead he asked him about the latter cause he was really curious... Turns out... 4tus said *D Tune* IS in fact *Seven* with parts/sections from *Circus Maximus*... Then the Beltrami mix was added in to it... After reading that, I decided to listen to both back n' forth... Both Tracks have some melodies that r the same...where they actually fit together...which I believe is the Ending or close to it on D Tune." Most important question is if it has vocals.

Blackstar Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Richard rarely uses twitter (I think he hasn't used it for quite some time). He posts on Instagram, but mostly on facebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UYI4 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Seems all of the locker demos have been pulled from online sources again. What’s odd is all of the general stuff other than the drum mashup one have been pulled too. Would be hilarious if the evader mix was damn near exact and that’s why they’re flagging it.

The only link I have saved that didn't get nabbed is a copy of Soul Monster on SoundCloud. Slightly good news for a new album, slightly bad news for Soul Monster fans?

rocknroll41 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Brain didn’t make it sound like Seven was two songs combined together when he described it… then again, he did say it was inspired by Julius Caesar, so I guess that fits with the whole “Circus Maximus” thing.

Its Tino Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I haven’t even listened to Perhaps yet and I’m already thinking about what’s next. I know The General was allegedly on the alt list, but I’m thinking it’s going to be Atlas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figured it would have been the first one released, especially since it was cut from CD album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
