Slash seems to have added a little change onto the end of the riff which is pretty cool and works. The solo played at soundcheck (if it’s the real one) is not very good though and a downgrade on Fincks. Still think it’s a cool tune with catchy hooks which should get lapped up by rock radio.

He's turned it into Country House by Blur.

I just hope it sounds more like Absurd than Hard Skool as far as the mix goes

But GN’R wasn’t always Axl and Slash. It’s even in the name of the band. It may be the “classic” lineup, but there’s members in the band now that have been there far longer than Slash. 

That's the killer argument right there. GNR isn't GNR because of the amount of time the classic line up existed. It's because of the music they created in this period.

How long was Mr Towel in the band? And still, he's one of the most unnecessary band members in music history.

Agree, so they have been in the band longer and have contributed what?  EVERY hit people know has Axl and slash on it.

It fans discussion should be: fans of popular one :AFD vs fans of elitist one CD.

Traffic spikes. Servers can’t handle it. Just my guess, though.

The Hard Skool mix was very embarassing. I love that song but it’s a disgrace compared to the rest of the discography quality wise.  I’m hoping because this took two years they actually got their shit together with this mix.

It’s never too late to re-upload a better mix. That obviously won’t fix the physical media we bought. I mean, they won’t fix the mix. But they could.

In an ideal world HS is part of the upcoming album (lol) and it's then mixed properly.

Seemed like an album worth of singles was the original plan. Slash wanted singles to release until a full release could work. Sadly in future interviews he lowered his estimate down to 1-4 more songs.

Why would Slash say this if it was a joke?

There have been pictures posted of Slash and Axl in the studio.

Right now It's easy to believe that the last song that they re-recorded with Slash & Duff It's The General for all the signs, I am interested on later interviews in what is the position of Slash when they asked him of new music.

I think in the best scenario we will get another pair of songs on 2025 because next year seems plans outside

Slash didn't say there is going to be a Gn'R album recently and also didn't say there is a full album worth of material completed. The poster you're replying to meant that he was hoping you were joking, not Slash.

Totally agree. Why can't it be mixed so the dynamic range is like the CD album. HS\A is so compressed it's almost embarrassing. 

And if The General is epic...... Don't let slash/Duff touch it lol, release as is.

I read that many times...CD the evolved GNR sound. Sorry, but I have to disagree. CD is different music. Simple as that. It's Axl who evolved (in a good or in a bad way is up to the listener) but you can't replace Slash and Izzy with Bucket, Robin, Bumble, Fortus or any of those guitarists and pretend that's the evolved GNR sound. You can like it, love it, whatever,  but the music and style is totally different. It's blues based hardrock against... something else 

Taking away the GNR name could help lowering the expectations but it wouldn't raise quality. For a masterpeace there're too many songs on CD that are lacking quality IMO.

Exactly

If you literally search for the word "Perhaps" with no other keywords on Spotify in America, GNR's artist page comes up at the 6th option.

I’ll go one further with this Spotify conspiracy theory research. If you search Perhaps Guns on Apple Music you get an Apple Hard Rock playlist of the 2023 world tour. Perhaps isn’t listed on it yet. As far as I know this is an “official” Apple Music playlist.

Confirmed in Canada as well

[Gunner55]

Oh are we doing the Spotify game again? 

All kidding aside. Canada account, currently in America. Perhaps on Spotify brings up Guns N Roses.
