"The General" is officially delayed... but "The General" AND "Monsters" is (unofficially) out of the bag

a bit pessimistic, but im 99 pct sure i heard them jamming "perhaps" in ottawa waay back in 2017. no axl and couldnt hear the keys, but it was a full song i remember saying sounded like sweet home alabama if sabbath wrote it. 

perhaps im wrong though (hey hey)

I was intrigued by this and looked in the thread for that show. You had posted about it then:

"Might be" – exactly. We don't know!  There could be a hundred songs out there with the same melody for all ke know. People are wasting their time with some make-believe thing that probably won't come close to the real thing.

Sorry, I just don't see the point. I don't get it at all

The melody for Evader's mix is based off the cell phone clip, is it not?

Right, so a short, crappy quality clip has been padded out to however many minutes and accepted as gospel? Nah, not for me.

I never listened to Evader's version in the first place. No disrespect for Evader's work, very talented! I just had no interest in something that is not really Guns N Roses. (Same thing with the Village leak instrumentals that I listened to only once.)

Hell, I've refused to even listen the the cell phone clip.

 

This. Just got no interest whatsoever, although I did listen to it. Talented guy, has made something out of basically nothing, but it doesn't need overhyping. It's an educated guess, not a cover...

Which brings me onto this – the fanbase hates the band doing actual covers, but for some reason loves a make-believe track not even done by the band 😂

Maybe the idea of reworking the songs was always the inicial idea but the constant touring didn't help to get on the studio before the lockdown

Releasing it on vynly is the stupidest thing ever.

Everything is digital these days 

They Don't even install CD players in new cars anymore. 

Way to say F-You to your fan base.

 

I guess we all will have our first listen off of a recording of the vynly playing...a la the juke box recording of Perhaps.

So...stupid

Songs nowadays often leak just a day or two before release, and this one is only vinyl and pretty limited

Yeah i miss the old days of the leaks. More people willing to trade back then. I have been trying to get The General and a few other songs for years. Unfortunately to the very few hoarders that have stuff im not sure if I have anything worth their while that either hasn't leaked or if I do they either have already or would be deemed fake immediately. Thing is I wouldn't leak anything (especially not with everything going on in my life currently) I just want them as a fan who collects not because of the "I have it and you dont" mentality lol

Are you also mad about movies not being on VHS anymore? :)

Well, you just did that, didn’t you? Or was that a not so subtle way to raise awareness that you are willing to trade something?
