Blackstar Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I think they just mean the single and they put "album" in the trailer by mistake.

Nick85 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I will say that’s a very odd time to start heavily promoting a 6 week old single, but then again, GNR. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're basically promoting the (to be announced soon, I suppose) Vegas show and the remaining tour dates. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some people apparently don't know what an EP is: An extended play (EP) is a musical recording that contains more tracks than a single but fewer than an album or LP record. Contemporary EPs generally contain four to five tracks, and are considered "less expensive and time-consuming" for an artist to produce than an album.

jimisbatman Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Either way, this would settle the argument about "vinyl" only release for The General, as if it's coming...... It'll be in all formats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha thank you for the definition - fully aware of what an EP is! Don't think marketing execs would be too happy with advertising it as "New GN'R 2-song EP" when trying to sell something, so rather than getting too bogged down with the definition of an EP, think of what would sell more. I would love a surprise GN'R album as much as the next person on this board but can't see it coming any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allwaystired Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 You'd think SOMEONE at a marketing agency would know the difference between an 'album' and a 'single' but honestly, given how few jobs these days seem to be got on genuine merit and ability rather than nepotism or such-like, I'm not especially surprised. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Of course this happens right after I leave Vegas 😂 It is still odd they are holding off on additional physical releases for the Perhaps and The General outside of vinyl… something is a brewing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but I don’t think this (likely wording error) is an indication that a covert LP titled “Perhaps” is coming. …Though I do think the Perhaps single art would make a great album cover too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that makes me think more could potentially be coming is Axl and Slash visiting that studio in June to listen to “mixes”. Now that could have been just Perhaps and the General. But it seemed like the studio technicians implied it was more. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmus1 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 My money is still on a collection of some sort of lump of new songs and live songs and/or alternate versions coming in the form of an LP. Whether it's considered an "album" is up for debate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsnchalupas Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 They will release a 'Best Of' 2 disc set. They will include the 6 songs they released this past year, along with 2 more new songs. The rest will be from the studio albums. Maybe they will have an EP for RSD that has the 6 (or by then 8) new songs all together in one package. If you're the label, you're not taking an album of Chinese Leftovers that people have already heard. Nobody wants those. A Greatest Hits type album with a few new songs will sell a lot better. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's easy to imagine because we now have Hard School on a condensed Greatest Hits LP. Not just a greatest hits album but it's condensed! That's where you pick the cream of the crop yet it still wound up on there. They could easily release another limited edition vinyl that has Absurd in place of Hard School.
