It’s not a bad thing to be a B-side. A lot of bands’ best songs are non-album tracks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guns N Roses is not like other bands, b sides aren’t less important than the main song. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appetitefordiscussion Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Could you imagine if The General is the actual title for State Of Grace or something off the older village stuff?? has anyone heard enough to confirm it’s its own song?

I can't believe The General = State Of Grace theory is actually sticking. The cell phone recording sounds terrible, but there's still a few things that can be heard - the orchestral melodies from the 2006-10 concert intros, confirmed to be The General, and screaming vocals that don't sound anything like what we heard on SOG. Not only was The General written at least 1-2 years after SOG, but it was an instrumental when Beltrami worked on it, and what we've heard from the concert intros doesn't fit with SOG. I realize this band is so fucking bad at releasing music that the concept of releasing something unheard seems impossible to some people, but yes, they're different songs.

Eric Cantona Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I am prepared to prove via the power of sheet music that The General and State of Grace are two completely different tunes 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post megaguns1982 Posted October 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) My favourite part of The General is when Fernando raps over it and does a diss track against the fans while Beta makes sexual moaning sounds.

Dani_1455 Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Oklahoma, Soul Monster & The General are our last hope for Big guns, I think The General will give us a good idea about if there is good finished material in the vault 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
